Stand Tall

You're brought down
Pushed to the ground
And it hurts so bad
The pain's so profound
When it all, is crumbling around you
A cascade of lies on the temple of truth
When everything you know, slowly fades away
The sun of your life, is setting on the day, break it down now

Yeah I know the feeling and I know it's hard
All the hits that I've taken left me battle scarred
Now I wear that scar tissue like a general his rank
A soldier on the front lines of life versus a tank
Of pain, of hurt, of adversity
But all you're gonna hear me scream is: take your best shot at me

They say God only gives us what, we can take
Sometimes we look up and think there's gotta be a mistake
But if it's right no one can fight this fight like you can
So stand and fight, don't be the one who ran
Bare your teeth, brace yourself and attack
Your problems ain't going anywhere, they'll stab you in the back

You're brought down
Pushed to the ground
And it hurts so bad
The pain's so profound
When it all, is crumbling around you
A cascade of lies on the temple of truth
When everything you know, slowly fades away
The sun of your life, is setting on the day

Look at it this way: it's happened, it's done
The battle was lost, but the war might still be won
You take what you've felt, weaponise that pain
Same problem, round two: story's not the same
Every time, every battle, every loss is good
You're building armour of your own, understood?

Feel these words because they're so much more
They're battle tested weapons, covered in gore
That've served me well, and many before
We the ones that recognise that sometimes life is war
So live, fight, grow, live through it all
And my friend: always stand tall
