Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change You gotta keep pushin' on The sun don't rain all the time There's gonna be some heartache and pain Woke up Sunday morning Got a little bad news today They say my life ain't worth living And time is slowly ticking away Don't think that I'm goin crazy 'Cause thoughts keep runnin' through my head I know I gotta be strong Gotta hold on Sometimes I'd rather give up instead Seems like I'm better off dead Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change (It'll never change) You gotta keep pushin' on The sun don't rain all the time There's gonna be some heartache and pain (Heartache and pain) Don't tell me how to live my life After all that we've been through Don't want to live out your hardships 'Cause I've been there myself a time or two Still life goes on If you just keep movin' on So many things you'll survive Once you realize There's no such place as paradise At least in my eyes Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change You gotta keep pushin' on The sun don't rain all the time There's gonna be some heartache and pain Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change (never change) You gotta keep pushin' on The sun don't rain all the time There's gonna be some heartache and pain (heartache and pain) Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change (never change) You gotta keep pushin' on The sun don't rain all the time There's gonna be some heartache and pain Blackberry Molasses One of the things that never change (never change) You gotta keep pushin' on
