Standing Even Taller

Verse 1

Woke up on the floor, dust still on my cheek

History in my scars, but I won’t let it speak

Life keeps handing trials, I’m collecting every scar

Turn my troubles into rhythm, roll my truth out on guitar

Pre-Chorus

All the nights I’ve cried, all the hope I lost

Still I find my peace, no matter what it cost

Got some broken pieces, but I walk with pride

Every low just fuels, the fire I feel inside

Chorus

I get by, I get bruised, but I rise up every time

Falling down don’t break my spirit, just add fire to my drive

If the world comes heavy, I just push a little harder

Pain is in the mirror, but I’m standing even taller

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, getting stronger, oh-oh, going harder

Verse 2

Second wind after storms, you taught me how to fight

Tired hands, aching bones, I hold my dreams real tight

Lessons in the struggle, I take them as they come

You’ll see me moving, running forward till it’s done

Pre-Chorus

Tried to keep me down, tried to take my crown

But I got love that’s louder than the pain around

My hope, my heart, I wear them on my sleeve

Keep it real, keep it moving, never make believe

Chorus

I get by, I get bruised, but I rise up every time

Falling down don’t break my spirit, just add fire to my drive

If the world comes heavy, I just push a little harder

Pain is in the mirror, but I’m standing even taller

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, getting stronger, oh-oh, going harder

Bridge

Every scar I earned is a map of where I’ve been

Taught my soul to bend, now I know I’ll win

Thunder in my chest, I’m running with the rain

Built from the heartbreak, steady through the strain

Chorus

I get by, I get bruised, but I rise up every time

Falling down don’t break my spirit, just add fire to my drive

If the world comes heavy, I just push a little harder

Pain is in the mirror, but I’m standing even taller

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, getting stronger, oh-oh, going harder

Outro

Stronger now than ever, I’m still standing here

Fearless from the broken, fueled by every tear

Holding on to promise, shining through the scars

I’ve been beaten but not broken, this is who we are
