Victorious
Benj Heard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every day that you breathe has been a miracle
And I can say that you're special, but it might not help
I know you're hurting, I know you bleed much deeper than I do
You don't deserve it, but pain and sorrow just can't get enough of you

In the trenches, in the rain
It may seem endless and full of pain
But you're a soldier born to fight
Keep your composure
And you will rise victorious
You will rise victorious
Every chance that we get to be an inspiration
Is a chance to make it better for someone else To lock arms and carry hope to a world that needs the truth
We'll be the armor that will embrace the arrows that fly at you
In the trenches, in the rain
It may seem endless and full of pain
But you're a soldier born to fight
Keep your composure
And you will rise victorious
You will rise victorious
Can you battle through the darkness
That is lying to your soul
And find the strength to carry on
Relinquishing control?
In the trenches, in the rain
It may seem endless and full of pain
But you're a soldier born to fight
Keep your composure




And you will rise victorious
You will rise victorious
