[Verse]
Shadows marching down the street
Boots that whisper where they meet
The wind salutes
The flags they bow
Who holds the weight of freedom now
[Prechorus]
Steel hearts but soft inside
Carrying battles they can’t hide
[Chorus]
Echoes of valor
They’re calling
They’re calling
For the ones who stood when the world was falling
Through the smoke
Through the fire
Their courage lifts us higher
[Verse 2]
Stories carved in stone and skin
A lifetime fought to let us win
The scars
They tell what words cannot
Heroes standing
Never forgot
[Prechorus]
Steel hearts but soft inside
Carrying battles they can’t hide
[Chorus]
Echoes of valor
They’re calling
They’re calling
For the ones who stood when the world was falling
Through the smoke
Through the fire
Their courage lifts us higher
