You're in hard times, you're in poverty
You have squashed dreams from lack of money
Life is throwing the book at you
Are you tough enough to see yourself through

You have been dealt the lowest hand
No one else seems to understand
Life is throwing the book at you
Are you tough enough to see yourself through

Tough enough are you tough enough
Tough enough are you tough enough

You gotta be strong, gotta have grit
Gotta have the will to struggle through hardship
When life challenges you
Are you tough enough to see yourself through

Tough enough are you tough enough
Tough enough are you tough enough

Tough times may not last
But tough people do

Tough enough are you tough enough
Tough enough are you tough enough

Tough enough are you tough enough
Tough enough are you tough enough
