Self Made Lyrics - Tornado - Little Big Town

Born a survivor, 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'll shine before you turn to rust 

Never by the book, always underestimated 

It's hard to believe the life that you created 

Self made 

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 

Never by the book, always underestimated 

It's hard to believe the life that you created

The impossible endeavor never would you trade 

It's a legacy that you take to the grave 

Self made, self made 

Live and die by the chance we're taking 

Money don't buy the life that we're making 

Never by the book, always underestimated 

It's hard to believe the life that you created 

The impossible endeavor never would you trade 

It's a legacy that you take to the grave 

Self made, self made 

Live and die by the chance we're taking 

Self made 

Money don't buy the life that we're making 

Self made 

Live and die by the chance we're taking 

Self made 

Money don't buy the life that we're making 

Self made 

Live and die by the chance we're taking 

Self made 

Money don't buy the life that we're making
