[Verse]
Daniel woke up before the sun could rise
A childhood stolen right before his eyes
Dusty dreams and broken skies
But still
He laughs and won't compromise
[Verse 2]
He learned the rules that were made to break
Carved his own path with every mistake
Life ain't fair but he won't forsake
The grit in his soul
The fire at stake
[Chorus]
He’s screaming loud through the howling wind
The world may bend but it won't win
With a crooked grin and a heart so wild
Daniel takes the bitter and smiles
[Verse 3]
He walked through storms with a head held high
Counting stars in a bruised black sky
They knocked him down but he could never lie
He’d stand
He'd laugh
Just to defy
[Bridge]
The weight of the world is a wicked thief
But Daniel’s laugh cuts through the grief
Every crack in his armor tells the tale
Of a fighter who would not fail
[Chorus]
He’s screaming loud through the howling wind
The world may bend but it won't win
With a crooked grin and a heart so wild
Daniel takes the bitter and smiles
