[Verse 1]
Blood on my knuckles
Dust in my mouth
They said I’d stay down
They don’t know me now
Scars like a roadmap
Burned into skin
Every closed door
I kicked back in
[Chorus]
Stand your ground
When it all falls down around you
Stand your ground
When the ones you love desert you
Broken, beaten, lost, betrayed
Still I rise, I will not fade
In the fire, I remember
The power of one
Stand your ground
[Verse 2]
Voice in the mirror
Says “you’re alone”
But I’ve built a kingdom
Out of every stone
Heart full of fractures
Still it drums on
Shaking and shaking
But it won’t be gone
[Chorus]
Stand your ground
When it all falls down around you
Stand your ground
When the ones you love desert you
Broken, beaten, lost, betrayed
Still I rise, I will not fade
In the fire, I remember
The power of one
Stand your ground
[Bridge]
All that I am
All that I’ve done
Boils to a choice
Run or become
I plant my feet
I bite my tongue
World on my shoulders
I’m still not done (hey!)
[Chorus]
Stand your ground
When it all falls down around you
Stand your ground
When the ones you love desert you
Broken, beaten, lost, betrayed
Still I rise, I will not fade
In the fire, I remember
The power of one
Stand your ground
(stand your ground)
