Shield of Defiance

(Verse 1) You threw me in the dirt, said I’d never rise, But now I’m standing tall, you can see it in my eyes. You think you know my story? You don’t know my fight, I’m stronger than your words, I’ll prove it every night. (Pre-Chorus) You doubted me, you pushed me down, But look who’s got the shield, wearing the crown. I’ll take the hits, I’ll take the fall, And still, I’ll rise above it all. (Chorus) Hate me, break me, you won’t shake me, I’m the Shield Hero, you can’t erase me. Throw your lies, I’ll stand my ground, This is my world now, I wear the crown. (Verse 2) You said I couldn’t win, you tried to block my way, But I’ll protect my people, no matter what you say. I’ve got the strength you’ll never know, The shield is more than just for show. (Pre-Chorus) You doubted me, you pushed me down, But look who’s got the shield, wearing the crown. I’ll take the hits, I’ll take the fall, And still, I’ll rise above it all. (Chorus) Hate me, break me, you won’t shake me, I’m the Shield Hero, you can’t erase me. Throw your lies, I’ll stand my ground, This is my world now, I wear the crown. (Bridge) Every scar, every word, only makes me strong, I’ve been the underdog for far too long. Now the tables turn, I’ll rise above the flames, You’ll remember me, you’ll know my name. (Chorus - Reprise) Hate me, break me, you won’t shake me, I’m the Shield Hero, you can’t erase me. Throw your lies, I’ll stand my ground, This is my world now, I wear the crown. (Outro) So go ahead, doubt me again, I’ll keep standing, this is where it begins. The Shield Hero, I won’t back down, In the end, I’ll take the crown.
