Born and raised in the Dalbey line, forged on that river desert state of mind.
Mama did her best work on her second try, Blessed with music in my heart and patience till the end of time.
Grandma taught me truth I can wear like a second skin
Stand by what you mean, even when no one's listening
It’s you against you, rise up and keep your ground
When the night gets heavy, don’t you back down
Time will tell what your hands have made of you
It’s you against you, the fight starts from within
Grandpa’s wisdom cuts the cold right through,
Every word a map for what I do.
I’m built from his grit, and flame in his hand,
A Dalbey man with courage learned from my grand.
Brother’s love and battles, taught me to be tough
His early storms made me sturdy when life got rough
We found our way as young men, inseparable then
Two friends against the world, till the very end
It’s you against you, rise up and keep your ground
When the night gets heavy, don’t you back down
Time will tell what your hands have made of you
It’s you against you, the fight starts from within
Little sister, angel in the wild,
I’m grown enough to guard you with a smile.
Tough on the world, soft where it counts,
Like playing in house on my Halo account.
My number one aunty, wild and free as the sea,
Taught me to ride the highs and face the debris.
Roxy heart, bold and true to the core,
Grateful for the life she’s opened up the door
Now it’s me, standing tall
Every doubt, every turn, I choose to push on through
It’s you against you, rise up and keep your ground
When the night gets heavy, don’t you back down
Time will tell what your hands have made of you
It’s you against you, the fight starts from within
It you against you
The fight starts from within
