[Verse One: DamianJay]
Another day I wake up with the sunrise
Sleep in my eyes, covers up what's deep inside;
Distant and faraway, I need to find a way
To get you close to me, not so distant and far away
Life's hard today. Same as it ever was
The reason I feel this way? I need your love
More than that of woman and man;
But the product of the two, if you understand;
That some relationships, just don't pan out
And splitting up isn't something we planned out
We had differences, insurmountable
It wasn't your fault, don't feel accountable
We were just another sad song;
Of how some love doesn't last long
It's the trials that make a man strong
So when you fall you can get up and stand tall
[Hook: Dale Teets]
Stand Tall, Cuz life's hard
Like your trapped inside a wave that's crashing
Stand Tall, Cuz I'm here
I lift you up, I'll fight for you, protect you from the fall
Stand Tall
[Verse Two: DamianJay]
Another day I wake up, tears in my eyes
Dreaming of you again, even in sleep I cry
I can’t see the sun through the clouds today
Cuz I haven’t seen my son in a thousand days
I take a knee to pray, Dear God see me through
Cuz when I come around you I can't see you
Guess mistakes you make, can come back and haunt you
But don’t let it daunt you, I’m here if you want to
I’m here if she’ll let you, What’s best for you?
She says not me, unaware of the change in me
Only thing you keep, is same last name as me
The futures hard to see, when the past is pressing me
But not all of life has to be such a tragedy
My heart you have the key, I’ll let you in happily
You see, it’s the trials that make a man strong
So when you fall you can get up and stand tall
[Hook: Dale Teets]
Stand Tall, Cuz life's hard
Like your trapped inside a wave that's crashing
Stand Tall, Cuz I'm here
I lift you up, I'll fight for you, protect you from the fall
Stand Tall
[Verse Three: DamianJay]
Today I woke up, hope in my eyes
Wiped tears, swallowed pride, pushed it all aside
Just to see this dream through, in my heart I see you
Hopefully through the TV screen you see me too
What I’m trying to say is, If I make it
Maybe get lucky, and maybe get famous
Anytime you wanna see my face there’s no way that
Anyone can say that, You can’t have your way kid
For now here’s a gift to you,Hope it uplifts you
I hope it gives you the strength to live through
Whatever life sends you, a broken heart mends too
God and family the glue, keep your heart true
No star is too far for you to shoot
And no dream is too hard you can’t pursue
After all it’s the trials that make a man strong
So when you fall you can get up and stand tall
[Hook: Dale Teets]
Stand Tall, Cuz life's hard
Like your trapped inside a wave that's crashing
Stand Tall, Cuz I'm here
I lift you up, I'll fight for you, protect you from the fall
Stand Tall
