Teddy by the Fence

[Verse 1] I'm just a kid with a lot of dreams In a world that never seems to see me Behind a wired fence, hands on the chain Sad to be, but I still say my name They told me "wait," I heard "never now" But I keep my heart up, even when it's down Mud on my shoes, scars on my sleeves Still I got a future nobody can leave [Pre-Chorus] I was built from bruises Built from last chances Look at me now Watch what hands this [Chorus] Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake Wire fence can't hold us back We keep running through the cracks Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake [Verse 2] Late nights counting cracks in the wall Dreams in my chest, they don't sit still at all Cold air on my face, steel under my palm But my mind stay loud when the whole room calm I seen doubt in the eyes around me Still I stand up, still I breathe free If the door stays shut, I go through the frame Little kid, big fire, remember the name [Pre-Chorus] I was built from bruises Built from last chances Look at me now Watch what hands this [Chorus] Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake Wire fence can't hold us back We keep running through the cracks Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake [Bridge] If they count me out, I'm counting higher Tiny hands, but I got that fire One more push and the dark won't win Me and Teddy, we begin [Final Chorus] Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake Wire fence can't hold us back We keep running through the cracks Me and Teddy, we don't break Me and Teddy, we don't shake I'm just a kid, but I won't fold Dreams turn iron, watch me go
