Lyrics
Verse 1 (painful, clear rhymes)
They hit, they yelled, told me to stay down,
But you screamed, “Get up, don’t wear that frown!”
Every punch, every tear made me tough,
Thanks to you, I didn’t fall – I rose above.
Chorus (mix of sadness and joy with rhymes)
Now I’m standing tall, shouting loud and strong,
I didn’t give up, ‘cause you helped me along.
The pain turned to joy, and this win’s not just mine,
‘Cause you were always there – a friend for all time.
Verse 2 (rhymes with pain, approaching joy)
The years went by, but the pain stayed near,
But your hand reached out, whenever I’d tear.
You wouldn’t let me fall, you helped me stand,
Now I scream – I won, with you, hand in hand!
Chorus (again with shouts of joy and pain)
Now I’m standing tall, shouting loud and strong,
I didn’t give up, ‘cause you helped me along.
The pain turned to joy, and this win’s not just mine,
‘Cause you were always there – a friend for all time.
Ending (rhymes with power)
Today I remember what we’ve been through,
They fell, but we stand strong – it’s me and you.
Without you, I’d be nowhere, that’s crystal clear,
So I scream loud – this victory, it’s ours to cheer!
