Lyrics Stronger Version - Tom MacDonald

A couple hundred thousand cigarette buds (cigarette buds)
A million beers, or maybe more, oh-oh
A couple dozen times I messed things up (messed things up)
But I'm movin' on from before, oh-oh

People don't like me for things I have forgot
But I can't pretend to be someone I'm not
I've been sober, I've been wasted
I spent most of my life in between
I've been sorry, been mistaken
I've been nothing, but how God made me

And I ain't gonna hate myself no more
Baby, I ain't perfect (perfect), but I'm puttin' that work in (work in)
I ain't gonna break down like before
And baby, I'm hurting (hurting), but I'm a stronger version

(Three, two, one)

A couple hundred thousand pills swallowed (pills swallowed)
A million tears or may be more, oh-oh
A couple dozen pretty hearts I broke (hearts I broke)
That isn't me anymore, oh-oh

People don't like me for things I have forgot
But I can't pretend to be someone I'm not
I've been sober, I've been wasted
I spent most of my life in between
I've been sorry, been mistaken
I've been nothing but how God made me

And I ain't gonna hate myself no more
Baby, I ain't perfect (perfect), but I'm puttin' that work in (work in)
I ain't gonna break down like before
And baby, I'm hurting (hurting), but I'm a stronger version

(Three, two, one)

Lord, I hit the ditch, walked right off the edge
I got knocked down and got up again
Oh, I tried to live more like my friends
I can't be nothing but just what I am

And I've been sober, I've been wasted
I spent most of my life in between
I've been sorry, been mistaken
I can't be nothing but how God made me

(Three, two, one) and I ain't gonna hate myself no more
Baby, I ain't perfect (perfect), but I'm puttin' that work in (work in)
I ain't gonna break down like before
And baby I'm hurting (hurting), but I'm a stronger version
