Lyrics
[Intro]
(heavy 808s drop, strings build)
[Verse 1]
Wake up every morning with the same thing in my chest
That familiar kind of anger that I can’t seem to get dressed
Down enough to wear it in the open so I lock it in a room
And I show up for my family by the time they’re up at noon
Been carrying this weight since before I had the words
Rage from every hand that dropped me, everything that hurt
I don’t let it touch the surface keep it buried somewhere deep
Cause the man I am to everyone is the one I have to keep
[Hook]
Nobody sees the fire I’m walking through
Nobody sees what I hold back to get to you
I run into it anyway that’s what men do
Nobody sees what I carry just to get through
[Verse 2]
Oil field taught me what it meant to be the one
Who stays standing when the pressure’s coming undone
When the metal starts to shake and everything could blow
You don’t flinch, you don’t fold, you just go
Everybody’s watching and they need you to be right
They need you to be the answer in the middle of the night
Brought that home with me, that’s who I am now
The man who runs into the fire, always figures out the how
That’s the man I built when nobody was around
When there was no one there to show me I just figured it out
[Bridge]
(stripped back — piano only)
Some days I wanna crash out
Some days the numbness wins
Some days the rage sits right beneath the surface
And I don’t know if I can hold it in
But then I think about them watching
And the mask goes back in place
Cause the strongest man they’ll ever know
Is looking at their face
And he doesn’t crack
He doesn’t show them what it takes
[Chorus]
He never showed
That’s what they’ll say when I’m gone
He had the weight of the world on his shoulders
But he carried it strong
He ran into every fire
He was the last to fall
He never let us see it
He never showed at all
[Verse 3]
The rage was never theirs to carry it was always mine
The weight was mine to hold so theirs could stay light
Every man before me either broke or walked away
I choose to be something different every single day
Don’t call it weakness holding back the dark inside
I call it being the foundation they can build their world on
That’s the trade I made the day I became their father
I took it all so they could sleep, took it all and carried on
[Chorus]
He never showed
That’s what they’ll say when I’m gone
He had the weight of the world on his shoulders
But he carried it strong
He ran into every fire
He was the last to fall
He never let us see it
He never showed at all
[Final Bridge]
(strings swell)
You ask me how I do it
I just tell you that I’m fine
You ask me what it costs me
I say it’s alright every time
The truth lives somewhere underneath
A place I don’t go out loud
There are days I barely hold it
But you’ll never know
You’ll never see it
[Outro]
(piano fading)
He never showed
He never showed
That’s what they’ll say someday
And that’s enough
That has to be enough
