Stand Tall, Speak Loud [Intro] (Spoken) They tried to break me, Tried to silence my voice, But I’m still here. And now, it’s my time to stand tall. That's the only choice [Verse 1] Born in the shadow, they wanted me small, Told me to whisper, not answer the call. But I saw the truth, it lit up my mind, The world tried to bind me, I broke every line. They label the rebels, they cage the brave, But I’m digging my way out, I won’t be enslaved. Every scar is a medal, every fall, a climb, You can’t silence a soul that was born to shine. [Hook] I stand tall, I speak loud, I’m the voice in the middle of a hostile crowd. Can’t break me, won’t bow down, I was born for the fire, I wear the crown. [Verse 2] They sell us their silence, disguise it as peace, But my tongue is a weapon, it’ll never cease. My words cut the chains, ignite the flame, Carving my destiny, calling my name. The stage is my pulpit, the mic’s my pen, I write for the broken, the lost, the condemned. This soapbox I built from the stones they threw, Standing tall in their ashes, I’m breaking through. [Hook] I stand tall, I speak loud, I’m the voice in the middle of a hostile crowd. Can’t break me, won’t bow down, I was born for the fire, I wear the crown. [Bridge] Listen close, hear the thunder roar, Feel the strength from the cracks in the floor. From the rubble, I rise, defy gravity, This is my anthem, my legacy. [Hook] I stand tall, I speak loud, I’m the voice in the middle of a hostile crowd. Can’t break me, won’t bow down, I was born for the fire, I wear the crown. [Outro] They’ll remember my name when the smoke clears out, The one who stood tall, who spoke loud. No fear in my heart, no chains allowed, This is my world now, this is my sacred vow.
