I've been a runner, I've been a fighter
I've been the fuse, hell, I've been the lighter
Taken every wrong turn down the bridges I burned
It's a bad reputation, but it's damn well earned
Gotta thank God that this ol' life ain't fair
There's only one way to explain how I got here
I got lucky
Well, ain't that's somethin' for someone just like me
Who don't deserve a damn thing?
I know broken, beat down
And I know I show it then and now
But, hell, I chose it, yеah, I own it
And it brings me to my knees
I got lucky
I've been it all, I've been еmpty
I've had nothin', I've had plenty
Yeah, I've done the dance, too many close calls
More than most, most of all
I got lucky
Ain't that's somethin' for someone just like me
Who don't deserve a damn thing?
I know broken, beat down
And I know I show it then and now
But, hell, I chose it, yеah, I own it
And it brings me to my knees
I got lucky
I make sure I don't make it on easy on me
But I woke up today, so that must mean
I got lucky
Well, ain't that's somethin' for someone just like me
Who don't deserve a damn thing?
I know broken, beat down
And I know I show it then and now
Hell, I chose it, yеah, I own it
And it brings me to my knees
I got lucky
I got lucky
