Kid, You Were Right

[Intro]
Hey kid, with the secondhand dreams,
Writing songs no one believes.
You’re staring out that broken sky,
Thinking you’ll never touch the high.

[Verse 1]
They laughed when you spoke your name,
Said you’d crash in flames.
They smiled, then stabbed your back,
Tried to break your heart in half.

But you held tight to every chord,
Slept on floors you couldn’t afford.
Thought about quitting more than twice—
But kid, you rolled the dice.

[Chorus]
So here’s to the dreamers they called insane,
To the ones who danced through the pouring rain.
You bled, you cried, you took the pain—
But damn, you built your name.
Now you’re louder than their bitter lies,
Flying high while they stay behind.
You were right to believe in the spark inside—
Now fuck the haters, you’re alive.

[Verse 2]
Yeah, they came with sugar tongues,
Fake love, fake songs, fake “we’re one.”
Tried to ride your flame till it burned ’em back—
Now they choke on the smoke you left in your tracks.

But you found the real ones on the grind,
Turned strangers into bloodlines.
The band? Your brothers in the storm—
Raised your dream and kept it warm.

[Chorus]
So here’s to the nights that broke your soul,
To the stage that finally made you whole.
They tried to write your ending page—
But you turned it into a stage.
Now you’re screaming where they can’t reach,
Living loud while they just preach.
You were right to believe when no one tried—
Now fuck the haters, you’re alive.

[Bridge]
Let ’em talk in rooms I’ll never step in,
I’m too high now for their poison to get in.
They said I’d fall, I said: Watch me rise,
Now I wear their doubt like a badge of pride.

[Final Chorus]
Here’s to the kid with fire in his veins,
To the voice that tore through every chain.
To the dream too wild to tame—
Now the world chants your name.
To the scars, the fights, the nights alone,
To the sound that became your home.
You were right when you said you’d shine—
Now fuck the haters, this life is mine.

[Outro]
Yeah, kid…
You were right.
Always were.
