Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I learned young how to bite my tongue Shake a hand even when I’m done Keep it movin’ when it’s fallin’ apart Put a bandage on a breakin’ heart I was raised on “don’t complain” Work all week, pray for rain Carry weight I never chose Still wear it like it’s sewn Pre-Chorus I don’t say much, but I feel it loud Every scar’s just another vow Chorus Yeah, I was built like this Wide shoulders, heavy chest I bend but I don’t quit Even when I’m hurt to hell I don’t show it, I don’t fold I just dig in, white-knuckle hold Yeah, the world might hit me hard But I was built like this from the start Verse 2 I’ve loved girls that couldn’t stay Watched good things slip away Slept alone with the TV glow Actin’ fine, but I don’t know How to fix what I can’t say How to outrun yesterday I just pour it in a song Sing it till the pain is gone Pre-Chorus I don’t need pity, I don’t need praise Just a little light on darker days Chorus Yeah, I was built like this Wide shoulders, heavy chest I bend but I don’t quit Even when I’m hurt to hell I don’t show it, I don’t fold I just dig in, white-knuckle hold Yeah, the world might hit me hard But I was built like this from the start Bridge (big, emotional lift) Maybe someday I’ll let it break Lay it all down, take the weight But tonight I’ll stand my ground Still breathin’, still around Final Chorus Yeah, I was built like this Still swingin’, still pissed Still believin’ I ain’t done yet I’ve lost sleep, lost my way Lost a lot but I still stayed If you’re wonderin’ who I am I’m the last one left who can Yeah, the fire never quits I was built like this Outro Yeah, I was built like this
