Stand Stronger

(ahhhh) Ten thousand hours on the track

One sudden snap, no turning back

White coats and silence in the room They said a year of

quiet gloom

I watched them run from the sideline wall

Curled my fists, hated the fall

But rage is a spark

that can light up the dark So I stand up,

ready to crawl

Every single step

is a war I fight

Every single breath in the lonely night

I will rise from the clay,

stronger than yesterday (ohhh)

Day fifty-two,

learning to stand

Fighting the gravity, holding the band

First painful walk, then a slow,

steady run

Sweat on the collar,

eclipsing the sun

Every single step is a war I fight

Every single breath in the lonely night

I will rise from the clay,

stronger than yesterday (yeah)

Now the lights are bright,

the crowd is loud

But I don't care about the gold or the crowd

Just being here, toes on the line I already won,

this victory's mine

Every single step

is a war I fight!

Every single breath in the blinding light!

I have risen today,

nothing stood in my way!

(we rise!)

Across the line, the placement doesn't matter now

I am not the boy who fell

I am the man who stood back up (hmmmmm)
