[Verse 1]

I’ve finally found out, that life’s just not easy,

By hoping things turn out to make it your way.

It’s more an adventure than things to accomplish.

It can seem like a struggle, or a challenge each day.

[Verse 2]

To make any progress you think is an effort,

You can’t only sit there and watch it go by.

You’ve got to work harder than everyone else does,

By making the most of whatever you try.

[Chorus]

Giving in’s not an option when there’s no options left,

You figure it out, though the figuring’s rough.

It’s easy to do when you know what you’re doing,

When you don’t you can count that it’s bound to be tough.

[Verse 3]

When you thought that you knew how things would turn out,

You planned and you hoped what you thought you might see,

But you figured it out that you just can’t expect it

to always turn out how you want it to be....

[Bridge]

You often find out when you’re right, you’re just wrong.

You don’t want to settle for only half way,

Or just giving in without giving the most,

to be grateful you did at the end of the day.

[Chorus]

Giving in’s not an option when there’s no options left,

You figure it out, though the figuring’s rough.

It’s easy to do when you know what you’re doing,

When you don’t you can count that it’s bound to be tough.

[Outro]

Giving in's just one option you choose not to choose.

You figure it out when the going gets tough.

It’s easy to do if you choose like a winner.

You can count on yourself and believe you’re enough.
