The Man Who Stands His Ground

You’re the man who’s always there
When everyone else is gone
The one who answers every call
The one who keeps carrying on

You give when no one notices
You help without applause
And somehow still take all the blame
For doing what you know is right

You’ve taken more than your fair share
Of words that cut too deep
But you don’t bend just to make peace
And you don’t run when people speak

You’ll ruffle feathers when you have to
Say the things they won’t
You’d rather stand for what is right
Than be somebody that you’re not

Maybe they won’t understand
Why you refuse to turn away
But you’ve always known what matters
And you won’t trade it just to stay

You stand your ground
You hold the line
Even when you’re standing there alone
You’re an anchor in the rising tide
A shield around the ones you call your own

When the storm comes crashing down
You’re the one who stays around
You don’t need a crowd
You don’t need a sound
You’re the man who stands his ground

When it comes to those you love
There’s never hesitation
You’ll stand between them and the storm
No matter the confrontation

For family, for friends
For the ones inside your heart
You’ll fight the battles no one sees
And stay when others part

You don’t protect them for the praise
You don’t need them to applaud
You simply love them fiercely
And that’s the way you love

Let the criticism find you
Let the cold words come and go
You don’t have to prove your heart
To people who will never know

You’ve been the fire in the darkness
The steady hand when things go wrong
And even when the world gets heavy
You keep standing strong

You stand your ground
You hold the line
Even when the whole world says to move
You won’t lose yourself
You won’t compromise
The things you know are true

You’re the shield when storms arrive
You’re the voice when others hide
You’re the one who stays
When everything gets hard
The strength standing by their side

And if the whole world pushes
You’ll still refuse to lose your way
You stand for what you believe in
And the people that you love

Come hell or high water
Through the hardest days
You’ll still be standing

The man who stands his ground.
