[Verse 1]
Shake off the pain
Get back on your feet again
It flooded when you prayed for rain
You prayed for rain
The well's runnin’ dry
Hell, so am I
I won't give up this time
No, not this time
[Chorus]
'Cause all my friends, we were born survivors
And every time I close my eyes, I’m dreamin' 'bout tomorrow
You know some things will never change
I think about it when I pray for rain
[Verse 2]
The rain turned to hail
Cold, dark, and pale
It beat me as I fell
Lord, I fell
The sun sets
And twilight hugs the ground
Oh, we won't let lonely bring us down
Bring us down
[Chorus]
'Cause all my friends, we were born survivors
And every time I close my eyes, I'm dreamin' 'bout tomorrow
You know some things will never change
I think about it when I pray for rain
Oh, some things will never change
Think about it when you pray for rain
Pray for rain
[Verse 3]
Shake off the pain (Shake off the pain)
Get back on your feet again (Back on your feet again)
It flooded when you prayed for rain
You prayed for rain
Well, [if it’s ever?] too late
Well, hell will have to wait
Well, it won’t get me today
Oh, not today
[Chorus]
All my friends, we were born survivors
And every time I close my eyes, I'm dreamin’ 'bout tomorrow
You know some things will never change
I think about it when I pray for rain
Oh, some things will never change
I think about it when I pray for rain
[Outro]
'Cause all my friends, we were born survivors
And every time we close our eyes, we're dreamin’ 'bout tomorrow
