Built to Stand

Şarkı Sözleri

[Intro] Stand tall Count it off One, two, three, four [Verse 1] I woke up with my boots by the door Dust on the soles, but I’m ready for more You brought a rumor, I brought a spine You brought a question, I brought the time I ain’t worried, sho nuff ain’t bothered Peace in my chest like a Sunday supper Last I checked, I ain’t hard to find Say it to my face, don’t hide behind [Pre-Chorus] God told me about your kind Then He strengthened up this mind Every scar became a sign I was built to stand this time [Chorus] I’m built to stand, I’m built to stand Feet in the dirt, heart in His hands You can shake the gate, you can raise your voice But I know who I am, I know my choice Now let’s see what holds you up When the easy road gets rough I ain’t worried, I ain’t stuck Stand up straight—now let’s see what holds you up [Verse 2] Brass in the air and the pavement rings I learned my strength from the hard-earned things Grandma said, “Child, don’t trade your name” So I kept my word and I kept my flame You counted on fear, but the count came wrong I’ve been carrying grace all along No borrowed crown, no borrowed shine This backbone here is completely mine [Pre-Chorus] God told me about your kind Then He fortified this mind What you meant to break in two Turned to something pulling through [Chorus] I’m built to stand, I’m built to stand Feet in the dirt, heart in His hands You can shake the gate, you can raise your voice But I know who I am, I know my choice Now let’s see what holds you up When the easy road gets rough I ain’t worried, I ain’t stuck Stand up straight—now let’s see what holds you up [Bridge] Left foot, right foot, keep your ground Let the truth be the loudest sound If your strength is real, let it show When the pressure rises, where will you go? I don’t need a crowd to know I’m strong I don’t need your blessing to move on The Lord repaired what the world wore thin Now watch me rise and refuse to bend [Final Chorus] I’m built to stand, I’m built to stand Feet in the dirt, heart in His hands You can shake the gate, you can raise your voice But I know who I am, I know my choice Now let’s see what holds you up When the easy road gets rough I ain’t worried, I ain’t stuck Stand up straight—now let’s see what holds you up [Outro] Sho nuff, I’m not bothered Strong in the soul, walking like I oughta One, two, three, four Built to stand forevermore
