Nettles, Jennifer - I Can Do Hard Things Lyrics






Sometimes I don't like it
But that don't mean I don't love it
Sometimes I get down so low
But that don't mean I can't rise above it
Sometimes it's the vast unknown
As far as I can see
And sometimes it feels like I'm touching everything
And everything is touching me
I've lost people and money
To become the woman I am today
And I'll still be becoming tomorrow
Maybe losin', but still choosin' her anyway

It's a lot to look at all that I got
It's a lot to see who I am and am not
But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
And I can do hard things

I look at my baby, I wouldn't trade him for the world
And I've gained joy like I've never known
But lost the lightness when I was a girl
We're told to say that it's better
And it is and it isn't, and I know
That there's little black or white
There's little wrong or right
And mostly it's both

It's a lot to look at all that I got
It's a lot to see who I am and am not
But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
And I can do hard things

Sometimes I can hold it all
I know where I end and where I start
And sometimes it's all way too heavy
And I weight more than the sun of all my parts

It's a lot to look at all that I got
It's a lot to see who I am and am not
But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
I can win or I can lose, it's all the same
I still dance, and I'll sing in the pain
And I can do hard things

    Beautiful, something I really needed to hear today. All the feels 💜

    I Never Wanted To Go To School..... TOO BAD, I am graduating in May With A Associate Degree In Business Administration... and I Can Do My Own Make-up!!

  4. J.... S....

    My hero is my mom. She's a 66 yr old grandma that I have never seen not doing something for someone in her family. We went thru a hard time when I was 19 and told her I was gay. I'm 46 yrs old now and my mom has been with me every step of the way. I have been very independent my whole life (got that from her), so at 44 years old, I became very sick and I'm not able to work. I'm lucky if it's a day when I can actually make a cup of coffee. I finally have my disability hearing in 2 months, March 30th. My mother has not been able to retire, she's still working full time so that she can't make sure she can help me pay bills and not loose my home I worked my whole life to buy. Your mom, our moms, and the daughters who are moms know what they would do for that little person that calls you mama. Take it from this 46 year old daughter, there's nothing in this world that I wouldn't do for my mom, BUT I KNOW there's nothing in this world she hasn't done or will continue to do for me. She is my anchor, my rock and my hero. We can do hard things mom, but I think the hardest thing for me is watching you do for me becuase you want to. I think the hardest for you is seeing me not be able to do for myself. I can do hard things mom, but you do things I would never imagine anyone would love me enough to do. Hard things don't even begin to explain what you do in the name of love. I just want to say thank you and I love you my sweet mom, my only hero! Love your daughter. Also for anyone who may read this please pray for me on 3/30/20 around 11am when my hearing happens and I pray God will allow it to be approved for me, but mostly so my poor mom can enjoy this part of her life. Please let this happen, God please???? She has done so many hard things, let her not have to do for me anymore please. It's my wish for this part of her life to not be hard. I love this song and I know we can all do hard things, I just want one woman, my mom, to be able to have an easy life for a while. That's my dream. God Bless!!

    Jennifer... not only the most amazing voice in music today, but an inspiration and such a powerful force for love. You and your music give so much to me, every day, in so many ways. Thank-you for all the love and inspiration. Your voice is a gift, a blessing, beyond words... but the amazing person you are, the artist... makes it a thousand times more powerful. You bring so much joy and inspiration to my life... thank-you.

  28. S.... ....

    This is powerful and way overdue. I had the distinct honor of having the very first female U.S. Marine Crash Fire Rescue Specialist on my crew at MCAS Tustin. While she was there, we won the highest award for all Navy and Marine units due in part to her efforts. I have a very few people with whom I would trust my life. She was one of those very few. She worked harder, longer than almost all the guys, and had ZERO concept of the word quit.
    As a Vet, I know military wives serve no less than their husbands. In fact, it is without question more difficult for them. I guess what I am saying is this guys. Love the women in your lives. Honor , respect, cherish, and thank God for them. Let's face it...... they are stronger than we are by far.

  29. A.... G....

    Love all this support and love you have and putting a spotlight on the LGBTQ community even if its a second 💕

    Jerks and assholes I am surrounded by. They won't let me "leave the lights on." How will he find me? Or is that, precisely, why these jerks and assholes control the light switches?...

    Look at my baby, I wouldn't trade him for the world...

  32. J.... L....

    1st time hearin her. Great voice

  33. J.... ....

    Powerful song,♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️

  34. E.... B....

    Man this song... I love it!

  35. H.... C....

    Does anyone else go through life and think that everything is so great and than this girl singing comes on the radio and you literally hope you get killed in a drive by shooting or want to jump in front of a train so you dont have to hear the rest of the song because her fucking voice sounds like a bag of cats being drug down the alley and you just want to end it?

  36. F.... F....

    I Always Love Your Songs and Talent. Wow.

  37. G.... ....

    hmm..... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  40. D.... P....

    Beautiful

  41. E.... S....

    Beautiful 😍❤️❣️

  42. A.... B....

    "As a transgender woman..." You mean as a man who will always be a man scientifically proven in his DNA who thinks he is a woman and expects the rest of us to believe it also. And then infiltrate all of culture and now country music. Oh Jennifer...

  43. K.... ....

    Thanks Jennifer, from a fellow Scottie '92, for a great, great song to inspire us to kep moving forward. When you coming to Eddie Owens Presents to do a little somethin' for the locals? Maybe something after hours like Kristen did? Grassroots baby!

    This is just a beautiful song. I saw you live in New York City tonight and I was absolutely blown away with all the great passionate song which brought a tear to my eyes. I’ve lost 5 members of my family and I’m one of 13 but we all loved music. Tonight was just so beautiful Jennifer with all your guests. Thank you for the music

  54. R.... P....

    Beautiful

  55. A.... T....

    P.S..….you go girl...:)

  56. A.... T....

    hard things...…….I hear ya.

  57. M.... F....

    Lyrics and words has a story into it

  58. W.... ....

    Why can’t this wonderful song just exist as it is? Why does there need to be a political message attached to it? I think all of us should just listen to it and get our own private message from it.

    W.... ....

    ubon11 Agreed! That’s the beauty of it because it was meant for that purpose as well! She’s such a classy and beautiful soul who only wants to uplift anyone in anyway with her music! I’ve heard many of men talking about how much it meant to them in their own personal way, just as it has with women in many different ways.

  59. J.... D....

    Beautiful song... Could have done without the uncircumcised dick print in the dress.

  60. w.... k....

    From Holland with love. JNLY

  61. K.... L....

  63. D.... M....

  64. M.... G....

    Was this inspired by Glennon Doyle Melton?

    I keep pushing forward for my children 💙 they are my world and no matter the obstacle ,I can do hard things and still smile.

    Absolutely love XY males and XX females,but you Marxist sum bitches that are trying to push your devlish agenda on normal people may you perish from the earth with your supporters. Whether that be Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton, Nanci Pelosi, Chuck SHCmuck from NYC or AOC>

  70. S.... B....

    I listen to this song every day... some days it is on repeat. Thank you, Jennifer, for your strength to speak for every woman, man and child! I know we feel some seasons of our lives rain continuously with trials and tribulations making us feel 'down so low that we can't rise above it'. But, my strength has risen and I know 'I can do hard things'!

    Never called a single female in my life the B word except my wife, and that is because she told me, “I can be difficult, when you need a break, tell me it’s to much your being a ‘b’”. With her permission I have said 5 times in 40 years and regretted one badly.. at 23 she was in labor.. but we both where in turmoil as a first child.. she said “I know I gave you permission but now..?? “ lol I love her and still regret that one.. but I think to much of myself and my Mamma to use that word to a random female.. and really to much to say to her.. but I have bad days too.. and she can (and does) call me anything she pleases because if she says it, it’s probably true.. that woman never exaggerates nor is she “emotional “ as some like to say..

  76. M.... P....

    I.... A....

    Panda The kat There actually going to start writing ✍🏼 new songs in a few weeks after they’ve completed their commitments for the tours they’ve separately are doing now and I’m so glad. I’d say that they’ll have new material completed and done for next years concert season. After the first of the year I’m sure we’ll start to hear and learn more about what Sugarland is doing, because they love to incorporate their music into their stages and clothes...etc. NO WORRIES 😉 SUGARLAND HASN’T GONE ANYWHERE!

  93. S.... K....
