Kevin Rudolf – Here's To Us lyrics
Everybody's got a story they must tell an'
You got yours and I got mine
All the times you felt the pain and seen the glory
It feels good to be alive

Now I can hear the sound
Of heartbeats all around
You know there's magic in the night
When you feel all alone
Like you're so far from home
Something always turns out right

So here's to us
And all our broken dreams
That never came to pass
We're still kings and queens
Here's to all we loved
That wasn't meant to last
Here's to everyone
Who said we never had a chance
Here's to us

Monday comes around
Your world is upside down
Feeling good in the worst way
The story's just beginning
Time we did some living
I can't wait to hear you say

It's on the radio
It's everywhere we go
The music's gonna save your life
So come on clap your hands
Remember when we danced
And raise your glass tonight

So here's to us
And all our broken dreams
That never came to pass
We're still kings and queens
Here's to all we loved
That wasn't meant to last
Here's to everyone
Who said we never had a chance
Here's to us

The night feels so long
When your heart's not filled with song
And may your dreams never leave you
Even when you've lost it all...

So here's to us
And all our broken dreams
That never came to pass
We're still kings and queens
Here's to all we loved
That wasn't meant to last
Here's to everyone
Who said we never had a chance
Here's to us
To all we loved
And all we lost
To everyone
Here's to us
To broken dreams
And kings and queens
To everyone raise your glass
Here's to us

    Quoted by Kevin Rudolf from ABCNews; his inspiration for the song is anyone -young, old, black, white or from where a person is from- can achieve their dreams. Overall, the song is about embracing challenges, failures or dreams that never came true in life, as a part of living.
    At each verse, Rudolf conveys that life has ups and downs with colorful metaphors and similes. The first verse acts as an opening very like of an essay, it has a hook with the two first lines and the next two lines sums up the whole song to put the audience into context of what this song is about. In next verses, Rudolf says how life has its ups and downs through different means such as metaphors or similes. When those challenges in life happens, an optimistic view is needed to be kept such as how he says "Something always turns out right" (Line 10). Line 45 and 46 is Rudolf saying not to give up hope for accomplishing one's dream even if the chances seems to be impossible. The chorus is like a chant when challenges occur. Noting "here's to us" is a toasting phrase for good and happy things, so Rudolf clearly demonstrates that failures should be celebrated.
