lyrics
I was born a poor man's child
All I've owned I've had for awhile
Times were tough life was cruel but I made it by
I've been in the dirt but I've touched the sky
I don't bet but with all I've lost I find
In this breath my own peace of mind
22 long winters and I've held my name
Bracing for another I hope I stay sane
I've loved and lost plenty but my heart still goes
You can try to shake me but I've faced my ghosts
I don't bet but with all I've lost I find
In this breath my own peace of mind
Heartbreak left a taste I can't erase
A little bitter a little sweet but it all burns the same
A couple scars guard this heart that keeps me safe
I'm not scared anymore not these days
I don't bet but with all I've lost I find
In this breath my own peace of mind
