It's hard...to keep an even temper It's hard...to just walk on by It's hard...sometimes to remember That it's easier to pick a fight Chorus: Even though trials and tribulations Got me on the tips of my toes If I'm gonna keep the peace I've found I got to keep my feet upon the ground It's hard...when there's no understanding It's hard...when other's try to control It's bad...to have to beg for mercy But it's good at the end of the road Chorus It's wrong...when you argue over nothing It's wrong...to leave hurt unrepaired It's wrong...but I've been wrong before But it's right to show her that I care Chorus
