Surviving Against the Odds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Nobody said it was easy when your back's to the wall
We started with nothing, nothing at all
It's just me and you against the world, that's how it's meant to be
You can't escape the simple truth that was our destiny
[Chorus]
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
[Verse 2]
They never thought we could make it, that was never the case
We made a vow to each other that nothing could break
Just stand your ground against the odds, that's what we've got to do
Together we can face the worst that life can throw at you
[Chorus]
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
[Bridge]
Don't let them drag you down
Keep both feet on the ground
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
You know we started with nothing with our backs to the wall
They never said it was easy, we've got nothing at all
Just you and me against the world, that's how it's got to be
You can't escape the simple truth, this is our destiny
[Chorus]
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
[Outro]
Against the odds
We're surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
Nobody said it was easy when your back's to the wall
We started with nothing, nothing at all
It's just me and you against the world, that's how it's meant to be
You can't escape the simple truth that was our destiny
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
They never thought we could make it, that was never the case
We made a vow to each other that nothing could break
Just stand your ground against the odds, that's what we've got to do
Together we can face the worst that life can throw at you
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
Don't let them drag you down
Keep both feet on the ground
You know we started with nothing with our backs to the wall
They never said it was easy, we've got nothing at all
Just you and me against the world, that's how it's got to be
You can't escape the simple truth, this is our destiny
Surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds
Against the odds
We're surviving against the odds
Surviving against the odds

In essence, it centers on themes of resilience and determination in the face of challenges, speaking of overcoming adversity with a steadfast attitude, all while emphasizing the importance of unity and perseverance.
