Verse 1 when I was five thought heroes lived in the skyline, high high high capes in the jetstream, pride in their eyes little kid wave like bye bye bye didn’t know the cost hid right behind the shine what they never told lived underneath the prize storybook gold with the ink full of lies yeah, when I was five PRE / HOOK nobody saved me nobody came I stitched myself together out of all that pain if there’s a hero in my story it’s just my name just my name CHORUS no capes left for me no sky full of bright beliefs just a kid who learned the hard way strength shows up when you bleed Verse 2 when I was six, dodgin’ sticks, catchin’ licks in the mix hands stay slippin’, pockets empty, whole grip missin’ black eye, busted lip, schoolyard politics ain’t no marvel moment on a block like this PRE / HOOK nobody saved me nobody came I stitched myself together out of all that pain if there’s a hero in my story it’s just my name just my name CHORUS no capes left for me no sky full of bright beliefs just a kid who learned the hard way strength shows up when you bleed Verse 3 when I was seven I stopped askin’ stopped lookin’ back at what happened stopped countin’ hands that were absent no signal came, no static, no savin’ just habits settlin’ in just patterns engravin’ just learnin’ what lasts when it hasn’t I didn’t cry, didn’t crack, I adapted that’s fact not tragic just math when the numbers stop addin’ PRE / HOOK nobody saved me nobody came I stitched myself together out of all that pain if there’s a hero in my story it’s just my name just my name CHORUS no capes left for me no sky full of bright beliefs just a kid who learned the hard way strength shows up when you bleed Outro: so maybe I won’t save the world but I can save tonight
