Too Stubborn To Quit Lyrics & video

Intro

Yeah
They called me hard-headed
Said I’d never make it out
Maybe they were right about one thing
I’m too stubborn to quit

Verse 1

I was raised on a road where the gravel gets rough
Where love don’t come easy and life gets tough
Had holes in my jeans, had dreams in my chest
Had people looking down like I wasn’t up next

They misunderstood me from the day I started
Called me trouble cause my soul was guarded
Didn’t see the pain that I carried inside
Only saw the pride when I swallowed my cries

I ain’t perfect, got scars on my name
Made some wrong turns, took some hard blame
But every bad road taught me how to ride
Every cold night put some strength inside

I been counted out more times than I remember
But my heart stayed hot through the coldest December
You can call me crazy, call me hard to fix
But I’m still right here, too stubborn to quit

Pre-Chorus

I don’t need them to understand
I don’t need them on my side
I just need this old dirt road
And the will to stay alive

Verse 2

I heard whispers in the town, they don’t know the facts
Everybody got a story when they looking at your back
They don’t know the nights I was praying in the truck
Trying to turn bad luck into just enough

Had a little bit of money, had a whole lot of pressure
Had to learn the hard way, pain can be a teacher
Had to lose some friends, had to lose some sleep
Had to walk through fire just to find my peace

Outlaw heart with a heavy soul
I don’t fit the box, never did what I’m told
I got country in my blood, trap drums in the ride
Faith in my chest and my people on my mind

They thought I’d give up when the road got dark
But I found my way by the light in my heart
You can throw your doubts, you can talk your mess
But I ain’t done fighting, I ain’t done yet

Pre-Chorus

I don’t need them to understand
I don’t need them on my side
I just need this old dirt road
And the will to stay alive

Bridge

Maybe I’m rough around the edges
Maybe I carry too much pride
Maybe I’ve been through some weather
That they’ll never see inside

But I keep one hand on the wheel
And one prayer in the sky
If I’m still breathing, I’m still fighting
Till the day I die

Outro

Yeah
Too stubborn to quit
Too hard to break
They misunderstood the road
But they can’t deny the strength
