You try to hold onto land, but when the tide turns you'll be done And it aint easy, to swim against the stream You'll get exhausted, cause there will be two steps forward one step back you'll see Call me the biggest selfish prick alive, And I won't contradict this time, oh no But I rather give it another try, than disappear into the horizon I know it aint easy, to fight against the stream. You'll get exhausted, but two steps forward one step back... is what it takes.
