I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain,
Earthquake, Hurricane.
I’ve seen joy and I’ve seen pain.
Coming from where I came.
I stand tall on solid ground,
tell ‘em bout what I’ve found
I stay true to what I do,
And I’m a stay true to you…
I’ve been there, I’ve done that, and I don’t have to prove myself.
If who I am ain’t right for you…you can find somebody else.
It’s fine with me…Won’t hold me down.
It’s no tragedy. Next to what I’ve seen. And I can only fight so hard,
for your heart before we fall apart.
Fall into a wicked twista, in the moments when I start to miss ya.
I’m slipping in my wisdom,
coulda went to prison, but it’s all good I’m still in business.
Witnessed the rise and fall, feel like a seen it all.
Soared over tribal plains, our love could not be saved.
I’ve been there, I’ve done that, and I don’t want to lose myself.
If who I am ain’t right for you…you can find somebody else.
It’s fine with me…Won’t hold me down.
It’s no tragedy. Next to what I’ve seen. And I can only fight so hard,
for your heart before we fall apart.
