Lyrics

[Intro]

Basement lights, D&D dice on the floor,

Thought it was a game till the monsters came through the door.

They call me a nerd, say I talk too much,

But when the world cracks open, I’m the one they trust.

[Verse 1]

I was just a kid with a map and a plan,

Now I’m leadin’ soldiers who don’t even understand.

From Hawkins Middle to the Upside Down,

Every step I took tried to break me down.

Lost my friend in the dark, thought I lost my mind,

Talkin’ to the walls hopin’ Will was fine.

Deh-muh-GOR-guns creepin’, blood on the bike,

Tell me how a childhood dies overnight?

I ain’t got powers, I ain’t got claws,

Just heart, words, and a will that’s raw.

They freeze up? I speak up, that’s the role I play,

Someone gotta lead when the light fades away.

[Hook]

I don’t run, I don’t fold, I don’t break,

Even scared, I’m standin’ in the quake.

No cape, no crown, still I fight,

Campaign leader in the dead of night.

[Verse 2]

El found power, but I found truth,

Love ain’t weakness, it’s the proof.

They say I’m bossy, say I’m loud,

But silence never saved this town.

I watched Max bleed, watched Lucas cry,

Saw Dustin smile just to hide the why.

Every loss carved lines in my face,

Try growin’ up when there’s no safe place.

Vek-nuh in my head, trauma in my chest,

Still I’m pushin’ forward, never second-guess.

I’m not the strongest, I’m not the brave,

But I’ll stand last if that’s what it takes.

[Hook]

I don’t run, I don’t fold, I don’t break,

Even scared, I’m standin’ in the quake.

No cape, no crown, still I fight,

Campaign leader in the dead of night.

[Verse 3]

They outgrew the bikes, outgrew the games,

But the pain stayed real, just changed its name.

Love letters folded, heart in my sleeve,

Tryna save the world while you barely breathe.

I made mistakes, yeah I pushed too hard,

Fear turns leaders into shards.

But I’d rather speak wrong than stay quiet,

‘Cause hesitation gets people buried in silence.

Hawkins bleeds, but I won’t leave,

This town raised monsters and made me lead.

If the gate opens wide, I’m drawin’ the line,

Between my friends and the end of time.

[Final Hook / Outro]

Basement kid with a battle plan,

Still fightin’ gods like a normal man.

If the dark comes back, I’ll ignite the spark,

Mike Wheeler — leadin’ straight through the dark.
