We Get Stronger

[Intro]
Before you name me wrong,
Come sit where I have been.

[Verse 1]
You saw the choice I made that day,
Not all the miles that led that way.
You heard one sentence, drew a line;
I missed your hurt, you missed mine.

So hold the verdict, ask me why.
I’ll make some room; you tell me yours.
We don’t have to trade our truth
To open up another door.

[Pre-Chorus]
Take one breath, let the first thought pass.
Look past the label, look at the face.

[Chorus]
Stand up, reach out, make a little room!
Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes!
We can disagree and still refuse
To shame a heart for seeing a different view.
Ask one more question, hear one more truth—
We get stronger when we make room!

[Verse 2]
Your road was built on different ground;
My map won’t tell me what you found.
I won’t pretend I know your pain,
But I can stay and hear your name.

You get a chance to tell me how;
I get a chance to listen now.
No cheap applause for being right—
Just honest effort, side by side.

[Pre-Chorus]
Take one breath, let the first thought pass.
Look past the label, look at the face.

[Chorus]
Stand up, reach out, make a little room!
Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes!
We can disagree and still refuse
To shame a heart for seeing a different view.
Ask one more question, hear one more truth—
We get stronger when we make room!

[Bridge]
Maybe you’re carrying what I can’t see.
Maybe my certainty keeps me from hearing.
I don’t need to say that every road is mine;
I can meet you here and give your words their time.

[Build]
No more turning people into targets.
No more making shame our answer.
Curiosity takes courage—
Bring it on, bring it on!

[Final Chorus]
Stand up, reach out, make a little room!
Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes!
We can disagree and still refuse
To shame a heart for seeing a different view.
Ask one more question, hear one more truth—
We get stronger when we make room!

[Final Refrain]
Hear them out! Make room!
Hold your ground! Make room!
Different eyes, same human worth—
Make room, make room!

[Outro]
Before you name me wrong,
Come sit where I have been.
