[Verse 1] Stone in the heel, wind in the face, I learned my first steps in a hard-run place. My father’s hands were scars and steel, my mother said, “Stand, and you’ll heal.” [Pre-Chorus] I carried fire through the rain, I kept our name through the strain. [Chorus] Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall We bend, but we don’t fall Allen name, stand tall From the smoke, from the sea I’m the echo you gave me Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall [Verse 2] I saw old winters cut through bone, heard the whole house groan and moan. Still, every loss left a mark, like lantern ash inside the dark. I wore your pride like a worn green thread, I kept your words right in my head. [Pre-Chorus] I carried fire through the rain, I kept our name through the strain. [Chorus] Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall We bend, but we don’t fall Allen name, stand tall From the smoke, from the sea I’m the echo you gave me Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall [Bridge] If I break, I break for us, if I rise, you rise. Every scar across my skin is a line in our lives. Hear the choir call my blood, hear the pipes run free, what was carried into me will carry after me. [Final Chorus] Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall We bend, but we don’t fall Allen name, stand tall From the smoke, from the sea I’m the echo you gave me Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall Allen name, stand tall I will wear it proudly Allen name, stand tall
