You’re my reason, you’re my ground
When I’m lost, you pull me out
Every breath, every fight
I’m alive because of your light

You’re my strength when I feel weak
The truth when I can’t speak
Through every storm, through every scar
You are who I am, you are my heart

You started with nothing,
no map, no sign.
Built us an empire,
one scar at a time.

Callused hands,
sweat in your eyes,
carried the weight
so we could rise.

You stayed up late
so we could dream,
paid every price
we never understood.

You walked barefoot
on shattered ground
so we could fly
without looking down.

We see it now,
we always did
the silent wars
you always hid.

You did your best,
you learned mid fight,
living life for the first time too.

So with this, I say
you are my hero,
you are my knight.

When I’m tired,
when I’m afraid,
you’re the reason I don’t fade.

I fight, I live, I stay strong
because I’ve had you all along.

If I forget who I am,
if I lose my way,
I’ll remember the hands that built me
and I’ll find my strength again.
