(Alto Version)
(Key suggestion: G major or F major (for a lower, richer tone)
Verse 1 (low, intimate—stay in chest voice)
You carry more than most men do
In worn-out boots… with a heart that’s true
You don’t say much, but I can tell
You’ve walked through fire… and lived through hell
You love your gamily with all you’ve got
Even when you feel like you’re not enough
You fight your demons in the dark
Still somehow keep… a tender heart
Pre-Chorus (gentle lift, but don’t push high)
You don’t see the man I see
But he’s there in every-thing you be
Chorus (sit mid-low, don’t overshoot—let emotion carry)
You’re gonna be great… you’re gonna fly straight
Find your way through every storm
You’re gonna be someone’s every-thing
Like you were to me be-fore
You’re gonna be all that I dreamed of
And more than I believed was true
With a love so pure… one in a million
The kind the gods made… just like you
Verse 2 (same low pocket, slightly fuller tone)
You’re learnin’ how to stand up straight
Puttin’ back the pieces fate misplaced
Every scar you try to hide
Just proves you never stopped the fight
And I know one day you’re gonna see
The man that everybody else believes
Strong enough to break that chain
Brave enough to face that pain
Pre-Chorus (slightly stronger, still controlled)
And I hope one day you understand
You’ve always been a better man
Chorus (add light harmony if possible)
You’re gonna be great… you’re gonna fly straight
Find your way through every storm
You’re gonna be someone’s every-thing
Like you were to me be-fore
You’re gonna be all that I dreamed of
And more than I believed was true
With a love so pure… one in a million
The kind the gods made… just like you
Bridge (drop low again—almost spoken, breathy)
If love was all it took, I’d stay
But we both got roads we gotta face
And I won’t be the weight you drag
You deserve more than what we have
Final Chorus (fullest moment—but still grounded, not belted high)
You’re gonna be great… you’re gonna fly straight
Find your way through every storm
You’re gonna be someone’s every-thing
Like you were to me be-fore
You’re gonna be all that I dreamed of
And more than I believed was true
With a love so pure… one in a million
The kind the gods made… just like you
Outro (soft, low resolution)
So this ain’t goodbye with broken hearts
Just two souls driftin’ worlds apart
And I’ll be gone… but I’ll still believe
In the man you’re gonna grow to be
