Adam Calhoun, Tom MacDonald - Never Gonna Come Down lyrics

Never gonna come down never gonna break down
Never gonna come down never gonna break down

Yeah, never move, never flinch
Been through hell to get here
I ain't givin' up an inch
You weren't there before I
Ever wrote a verse
Had to hop on a train just
To make my way to work
No home, no license at all
No phone, who cares, I had no one to call
Work so hard I had to drive like a car
Been through every season but I
Never seen the fall
Autumn don't come too often for me
And when the wind blows I
Don't fall off the tree
I don't burn like the leaves
I just grow like the spring
Never fold or retreat, hold it down like a G
Yeah, always win like a three-peat
Put my music on repeat
Been down, came back around
Made it to the top
Now they all line up just to see

Never gonna come down never gonna break down
Never gonna come down never gonna break down

Most people been to hell and back
I went to hell and stayed there
Caught my jacket on a branch and
Waited in the flames scared
Demons started closin' in and
Devils never play fair
I made it out alive, I ain't the same
Now I got gray hair
What doesn't kill you makes you
Stronger if you're tough enough
It's hard to comprehend when you
Consider even metal rust
Uh, you still gotta thug it out
I ain't gettin' out the water
Fight the sharks 'til I drown
Never run away from nothin', I'm a man
That's how it has to be i'll only leave
Delete the evil away from my family
The alcohol and partying have
Obviously damaged me
But I ain't givin' up
You'd have to kill me to cancel me
None of us are getting out alive, man
That's real true
The first cut is the worst
But they all feel new
Tough times don't last, tough people do
And you got the vision
Just go see it through

Never gonna come down never gonna break down
Never gonna come down never gonna break down

I've been climbin' to the moon right now
I'm deep inside the clouds
People crowding 'round my ladder
Shaking it to bring me down
Don't need an army, I'm a soldier
Packed a million different rounds
When I finally blow the motor
Then my feet will hit the ground
Then I'ma run like I ain't never
Run before in my life like I'm fourteen
Drunk and jumpin' fences all night
'Cause a warrior's destiny doesn't
Run with a fight
It makes him stronger than he's ever
Been before in his life
My life go brighter than a lightpole
You should know
I'm cooler than what's cool, ice cold
I don't break down
I just hit the ground runnin'
Ever since a youngin'
Always kept it a hundred
Look, I don't know the speed limit
Only time I look back
Is just to see what we did
I'm writin' a book
You don't get to read it 'cause
I sing it in these hooks
But you know it when you hear it in my voice
They all look

Never gonna come down never gonna break down
Never gonna come down never gonna break down
