Lyrics
Always told to be tough, be strong But strength ain't fists, it's proving them wrong Hiding behind the noise and the pride, But when the lights fade, there's nowhere to hide How long will you take everything, pretending you're fine? When will you stop running from the mirror? Be a better man, not the bigger one Shadows don't make you tall, they just block the sun Be the man they'd be proud to become, Or stay the reason they run Learn the words you were never taught "Sorry," "I'm wrong", it's not weakness, it's growth Legacy is more than a name It's the weight of the choices you make Break the chain, Or pass it on like your father did Look inside Are you proud of this? Be a better man, not a bitter one You're not your pain, you're not what they've done Be the man they'd be proud to become, Or stay the reason they run It's not too late To be the man you needed When you were a kid Be a better man, not a louder one Screaming don't make you right, don't make you strong Be the man they'd be proud to become, Or stay the reason they run No more running, no more hiding No more ghosts that you keep inside Look in the mirror, start deciding Who you are and who survives
