Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I was the boy they all pushed aside, Face in the dust with nowhere to hide, Crutches on cold school corridors, Echoes of laughter through closing doors. They said I’d never be strong enough, Just a lost soul in a world too rough, But every scar, every shattered bone— Built a fire I could call my own. Pre-Chorus Oh, I fell like rain on empty streets, But I learned to rise on my own two feet… Chorus I’m still standing in the light, Through the dark, I learned to fight, I don’t need a crown to wear— I found my strength already there. To my children, I’m ten feet tall, I catch them every time they fall, Call me broken, I’ll show you why— I’m the hero in their eyes. Verse 2 Now there’s a house and a life I’ve made, Two little hearts that call my name, When the night comes crashing in, I’m the shelter standing strong within. No spotlight, no grand disguise, Just a man with love in his eyes, Every fear that comes their way— I stand between, I won’t let it stay. Pre-Chorus Oh, the boy they tried to leave behind, Is the man they’ll never redefine… Chorus I’m still standing in the light, Through the dark, I learned to fight, I don’t need a crown to wear— I found my strength already there. To my children, I’m ten feet tall, I catch them every time they fall, Call me broken, I’ll show you why— I’m the hero in their eyes. Bridge (emotional, piano-led) No velvet rope, no flashing name, No need for fortune, no need for fame, ‘Cause every night when they sleep in peace— That’s the proof that my past found release. Final Chorus (big, theatrical) I’m still standing—hear me now, I turned the pain into something proud, No cape, no mask, just who I am— A broken boy turned stronger man. To my children, I’m everything, Through every fall, I’m their steady wing, From the ashes I learned to rise— Now I’m the hero in their eyes.
