Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never would I say
"You've got to stay the same"
Everything must change
And go its own way
It's not always pleasant
Nor predictable
Sometimes it comes with pain
That never goes away

[Chorus]
We've been through a lot
It's not gonna stop
We've been through a lot
It ain't never gonna stop

[Verse 2]
No matter how we try 
To figure out why
It surprises our eyes
And even makes us cry
So go on live each day
To the fullest in every way
Don't let your passion ever fade
And make the time to play

[Chorus]
Oh, it takes a lot
To make it to the top
Oh, it takes a lot
To give it all you've got
And it takes a lot
To stay on top
Oh, it takes a lot
So give your best shot
Give it all you've got
Aim straight for the top

[Verse 3]
You can't be simply satisfied 
You must reach for the sky
If you don't you'll fall behind
And slowly you'll die
Take a look at where you are
And where you've been
If the two are both the same
Then pack up and start again

[Chorus]
We've been through a lot
It's not gonna stop
We've been through a lot
It ain't never gonna stop

And it takes a lot
To make it to the top
Oh, it takes a lot
To give it all you've got

We've been through a lot
Going straight to the top
And it takes a lot
There's no pit stops
When driving to the top
And it takes a lot

[Outro]
Never would I say
"Forever stay the same"
