I hold the picture in my hand, A younger face, a stronger man. Through the fire, through the storm, You’ve kept your courage, held your form. I know the battles cut you deep, The nights you struggle, the days you keep. But you never let the darkness win, You’re the strength I see within. Brother, you stand, when the world falls apart, A fire in your eyes and a shield on your heart. Through the pain, through the fight, you carry it all, Brother, you stand, and I can see you'll never fall. I’ve seen the weight you never show, The silent roads that only you know. But every scar is a story true, A light of hope that shines from you. And when the night is closing in, You’re the one who won’t give in. I see the hero that you are, You’re my brother, you’re a star. Brother, you stand, when the world falls apart, A fire in your eyes and a shield on your heart. Through the pain, through the fight, you carry it all, Brother, you stand, and I can see you'll never fall. If I could be half the man you’ve been, I’d face the world with steel within. And when the shadows call my name, A strength like yours will guide me through the flame. Brother, you stand, when the world falls apart, A fire in your eyes and a shield on your heart. Through the pain, through the fight, you carry it all, Brother, you stand, and I can see you'll never fall. I hold the picture in my hand… Brother, you stand.
