[Intro]
(Soft piano melody with a somber, reflective tone)
[Verse 1]
Early dawn, he’s out the door again,
A silhouette against the grind, no time to bend.
Calloused palms, a kingdom built in silence,
But the world just sees a shadow in the violence.
Every check he signed, every sleepless night,
A crown of sweat, but they call it “just his right.”
He carries weight they’ll never trace,
A hero’s heart with no spotlight on his face.
[Chorus]
Unseen hands, they hold the world in place,
But the praise don’t land, no ribbons, no embrace.
He’s the steady b**t in a broken song,
Building thrones for others, but they tell him, “Move along.”
[Verse 2]
He laughs it off, says, “Love don’t need a name,”
But his reflection knows the sting of hidden shame.
Through every storm, he plants the seeds alone,
While the harvest’s claimed by a house he built from stone.
They call it “strength” when he swallows pride,
But the tears he hides are oceans held inside.
[Chorus]
Unseen hands, they hold the world in place,
But the praise don’t land, no ribbons, no embrace.
He’s the steady b**t in a broken song,
Building thrones for others, but they tell him, “Move along.”
[Bridge]
Oh, the years they steal the youth from his eyes,
Yet he stands tall, a mountain in disguise.
One day the scales will tip, the truth will rise—
A legacy of love etched in the skies.
[Outro]
(Gentle piano fades, leaving a hum of resolve in the air)
