Proving Them Wrong

[Verse]
Daddy’s old boots, I lace ‘em tight,
Hit the gas and chase the night.
Dreams were battered, but they held on strong,
This eighteen-wheeler rolls where I belong.
[Verse 2]
Back in school, they laughed at me,
Said, “You’ll never be what you dream to be.”
But out on this road, the miles unwind,
Leaving their doubts and their words behind.
[Chorus]
I’m proving them wrong, mile by mile,
Each sunrise brings a brand-new trial.
Through the wind and the rain, I stand tall,
With God on my side, I’ll conquer it all.
[Verse 3]
The hum of the engine sings my song,
The open road has healed what’s been wrong.
From bullied halls to a life renewed,
Those scars I carry? They’re just my truth.
[Bridge]
Sometimes it’s lonely under that moon,
But I find my peace in its silver tune.
They said I’d never, but here I am,
An OTR trucker making my stand.
[Chorus]
I’m proving them wrong, mile by mile,
Each sunset feels like victory’s smile.
Through the wind and the rain, I stand tall,
With God on my side, I’m stronger than all.
