How Much Grit

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

How much grit you reckon you've got down deep

Could you lay down the thing that makes you sleep

Everybody talks of pluck like it's a pretty word

Till the marrow of the wanting starts to burn and stir

But I keep tracing back to the question in my chest

The one that nobody answers till they're put to the test

Pre-Chorus

So tell me

When the craving calls your name at three a.m

And every nerve is begging you to let it in

Chorus

How much grit do you think you've got

Can you quit a joy you love a lot

It's easy to grin when the crowd is near

But the real test comes when nobody's here

How much grit

How much grit do you carry in your soul

Verse 2

I've stood tall through trouble kept my smile on tight

But disiplin is a war I fight alone at night

I've given orders to myself with a steady hand

Then watched temptation pull me like a shifting sand

So I stopped the boasting stopped the easy claim

Cause courage isn't proven till you play the hardest game

Pre-Chorus

So tell me

When you're swayed and sorely torn in two

Can those rigid orders still ring true

Chorus

How much grit do you think you've got

Can you quit a joy you love a lot

It's easy to grin when the crowd is near

But the real test comes when nobody's here

How much grit

How much grit do you carry in your soul

Bridge

It's bully sport and it's open fight

Keeps you busy through the day and night

The toughest game you'll ever find

Is making this body obey this mind

And you'll never know the meaning of the word

Till there's something that you've laid down and left unheard

Chorus

How much grit do you think you've got

Can you quit a joy you love a lot

It's easy to grin when the crowd is near

But the real test comes when nobody's here

How much grit

How much grit do you carry in your soul
