Trouble Knocks

Have you ever been caught Between a rock and hard place Have you ever had to look Adversity in the face Or have you led an easy life Where the roads is smooth and wide have your doors been held open Has there always been a guide What will you ever do If trouble knocks on your door Gives you eviction notice If there's less instead of more Will you start to crumble From the force of the blast Are you made of better stuff A substance that's made to last One day we'll all be tested Even those with silver spoons Some are more resilient Others pop like pricked balloons It's better to have hardships Much earlier in your days So that you will have the strength To turn your trouble away We think that we want easy I think that is a mistake We become so much stronger With each and every mistake Between a rock and hard place There is gold there to be found Not often will you find it Just out laying on the ground Embrace each situation We're purified by fire If it doesn't burn us up We will be lifted higher
