Little Big Town - Self Made lyrics

[Verse 1] Born to survive like father like gun Built to outlast where you came from Nothing comes easy when nothing is handed to you Taught yourself how to turn the tides Walk ashore before the waters rise Even when you're down, you're still coming through Making diamonds out of dust You shine before you turn to rust [Chorus] Never by the book, always underestimated It's hard to believe the life that you've created Self made [Verse 2] Learned from the will of the working man Breaking hard ground for a piece of land Up before the sun and down before the rising moon Oh, fought for the things that were never yours Settle for less and hope for more God and pouring rain never come too soon Making diamonds out of dust Who you are is who you trust [Chorus] [Bridge] Live and die by the chance we're taking Money don't buy the life that we're making [Chorus] [Verse 4] Live and die by the chance we're taking, self made Money don't buy the life that we're making Live and die by the chance we're taking, self made Money don't buy the life that we're making Live and die by the chance we're taking, self made Money don't buy the life that we're making
