Life Ain't Easy

[Verse 1]

I saw my mother break down in tears when I was just 6 years old

Working 3 jobs to provide the best life so her kid never felt all alone

[Chorus]

Broken and bruised from a world so cruel but always found the light in the dark

She said, "It's a hard, hard, hard, hard road, but the best parts of life ain't easy."

[Verse 2]

My Pops did magic tricks to make a quick buck to buy me my first guitar

From a pawnshop in Chatsworth, where dreams go to die to be reborn into brighter stars

[Chorus]

He made me practice 'til my fingers bled but that Gibson it never let mе starve

He said, "It's a hard, hard, hard, hard road, but the bеst parts of life ain't easy."

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, the best parts of life ain't easy

[Bridge]

I watched my mom and dad meet the Lord young, I wish they would've both had more time

They'll never meet their grandkids, see the first female president, or walk me on down the aisle

[Chorus]

I lost my mind then I quickly realized they still live on in this broken heart

And say, "It's a hard, hard, hard, hard road, but the best parts of life ain't easy."

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, the best parts of life ain't easy

Oh, the best parts of life ain't easy
