[Verse 1] They used my name like mud Left bruises in the hall Lunch tray shaking in my hands I learned to stand too small They laughed when I looked down I tasted metal in my teeth I kept that hurt in my chest Like a blade I had to keep [Pre-Chorus] Then I saw her flinch When the crowd moved in I felt that old fire wake Right under my skin No more heads bowed low No more letting go [Chorus] Steel for the weak Steel for the weak I break your hand on their fear Steel for the weak Steel for the weak If you hunt them, I am here (steel for the weak) [Verse 2] Now I stand in the doorway When the big mouths start I know their games by heart I know their cheap remarks I put my body between The shove and the small One by one they back up When I answer the call [Pre-Chorus] I was made by pain But I don't spread it out I turn every scar I got Into a wall around Kids with shaking knees Get to walk free [Chorus] Steel for the weak Steel for the weak I break your hand on their fear Steel for the weak Steel for the weak If you hunt them, I am here (steel for the weak) [Bridge] I don't need a crown I don't need a cheer I just need the monsters gone When they circle near If they come for one They come through me That became my plea, That became my plea! [Final Chorus] Steel for the weak Steel for the weak I break your hand on their fear Steel for the weak Steel for the weak If you hunt them, I am here Steel for the weak Steel for the weak I stand where the hurting are (steel for the weak)
