[VERSE 1] 3 AM, kitchen’s wrecked again Baby out cold on your chest Rings tossed next to a cracked mug We used to break down, now we break in Half the house is chaos and wires But the quiet hits like a victory [PRE CHORUS] We’re still rough, still missing our cues But we’re loud together now [CHORUS] We’re bruised but brilliant Built from stubborn hearts We made a home out of noise Turned the damage into sparks We’re bruised but brilliant Still a little unstrung But we stay, and we stay That’s how the war got won [VERSE 2] Bottle tips, milk hits the floor You swear, I laugh, we reset We’re still bad at saying the right thing But we show up, teeth first, no regret Your hand grabs mine in the blackout Like a promise we keep by instinct [PRE CHORUS] We’re still rough, still missing our cues But we’re loud together now [BRIDGE] I’ll fail, I’ll learn, I’ll stay You’ll fail, you’ll learn, you’ll stay This kid will grow up watching Two fighters choose the same corner Not perfect, not peaceful Just real enough to hold [FINAL CHORUS] We’re bruised but brilliant Built from stubborn hearts We made a home out of noise Turned the wreckage into art We’re bruised but brilliant Still a little unstrung But we stay, and we stay That’s how the war got won Yeah, we stay, and we stay That’s how a family’s born
