Standing Tall
(C) 2025 Dailg Music Used to walk those halls, head down, eyes glued to the floor Every whispered word, hit me like a slamming door You'd trip me in the hallway, laugh behind your hand Build me up with insults, like castles in the sand Yeah, you thought you had me figured, small town, easy prey But little did you know, I was learning every day Now I'm standing taller, got my boots on high Watching you fade out, like a distant, cloudy sky You thought you'd clip my wings, keep me on the ground But I found my own sunshine, turned the whole thing around This ain't a revenge song, it's a "look at me now" Rising like a wildflower, breaking through the ground You can keep your mean words, they don't mean a thing 'Cause I'm dancing in the spotlight, hear the freedom sing. Remember that small-town stage, the talent show at night? You said my voice was shaky, wouldn't shine a single light Tried to steal my melody, drown it in your hate But I found a stronger rhythm, sealed my own fate Now the crowd is singing, every word I wrote And you're stuck in the back row, choking on your words. Now I'm standing taller, got my boots on high Watching you fade out, like a distant, cloudy sky You thought you'd clip my wings, keep me on the ground But I found my own sunshine, turned the whole thing around This ain't a revenge song, it's a "look at me now" Rising like a wildflower, breaking through the ground You can keep your mean words, they don't mean a thing 'Cause I'm dancing in the spotlight, hear the freedom sing. Yeah, the scars might linger, a reminder of the past But they're just faded tattoos, that weren't built to last I turned my pain to strength, my weakness into power And found a voice inside me, that knew my inner flower Now I'm standing taller, got my boots on high Watching you fade out, like a distant, cloudy sky You thought you'd clip my wings, keep me on the ground But I found my own sunshine, turned the whole thing around This ain't a revenge song, it's a "look at me now" Rising like a wildflower, breaking through the ground You can keep your mean words, they don't mean a thing 'Cause I'm dancing in the spotlight, hear the freedom sing. Yeah, I'm dancing in the spotlight, hear the freedom sing. And I'm never looking back, never looking back again.
