[Verse 1:]
I got problems
And I'll be the first to call them out
Yeah, I get lonely
Cuz lately friends don't stick around
But I keep my hopes up
Cuz that's the one thing I can control
I don't fill my mind with petty lies
I let that go
I don't fill my mind with petty lies
Let that go
[Chorus:]
And all...the troubles in my life won't bring me down
And all...the struggles in my life they teach me how
How I'm perfectly imperfect
And when it hurts, I just remember there's a purpose
So I'll cry today, smile tomorrow
I cry today, smile tomorrow
[Verse 2:]
And those nights, when I'm all alone
Feeling defeated, and beaten, abandoned, and far from home
I sit in silence on the sidelines as the world moves on
With puzzled pieces in my palms, wondering what the hell I did wrong
[Chorus:]
And all...the troubles in my life won't bring me down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
And all...the struggles in my life they teach me how
They teach me how
How I'm perfectly imperfect
And when it hurts, I just remember there's a purpose
So I'll cry today, smile tomorrow
[Bridge:]
I'll cry today, smile for all of those walls I've broken through
All those times I couldn't choose
The cards on the table
The facts and the fables
Smile for all the ones who hold me up
When the weight is just too much
And I can't bear it on my own even when I know
[Chorus:]
That all...the troubles in my life won't bring me down
And all...the struggles in my life they teach me how
Teach me how
How I'm perfectly imperfect
And when it hurts, I just remember there's a purpose
So I'll cry today, smile tomorrow
I'll cry today, smile tomorrow
I cry today, smile tomorrow
Cry today, smile tomorrow
