Here I Stand
Vasil Garvanliev Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The child about to crack
I′ll tell him, "Wait, you won't be long
Trust your heart and just stay strong"
′Cause baby, they all tried to break us
Not knowing it's what makes us
This is how we found our way
There's no pretend
My walls are down, my heart′s in your hand
Unchain my wings
And the oceans of tears will fade to black
With the song of my years, ooh-ooh-ooh
Woah-oah
They all tried to break us (tried to break us)
Not knowing it′s what makes us (they don't know)
This is how we found our way (this is how we found our way)
(Herе I stand)
My walls are down, my heart′s in your hand
They all triеd to break us (to break us)
Not knowing it's what makes us (they don′t know)
This is how we found our way
There are times when I remember back
And all I do is smile
All for you
(They all tried to break us)
(Not knowing it's what makes us)
(And this is how we found our way)

A quick reminder to all Tito-Macedonians & Serbo-Turbo-Folk-Crvena Zvezde Granda & Zastava-Yugo-Aјvar people in North Macedonia, the newest project of Stalin & The Comintern, but after Moldova:
The People from South Africa are called South Africans!
People of North Korea are simply called North Koreans!
People from the 60 years old country named North Macedonia are North Macedonians, but definitely NOT Macedonians!
That was the whole point of renaming the second youngest state in Europe after Kosovo, just to make CLEAR DISTINCTION between the Real Macedonians, a pure Hellenic tribe called Macedon, leaded by Alexander The Great, leader, general and disciple of Aristotle, The Macedonian Bulgarians with their national heroes from the Revival period and struggles for the liberation of Bulgaria and its Slavic Macedonia from Turkish Slavery and the Serbo-Turbo-Folk-Yugo Macedonians, all kids of Tito's Yugoslavia, but definitely offshoots of Bulgarian nation too!
PS:
There are no Bulgarian Macedonians, but there are Macedonian Bulgarians everywhere and they are plenty!
Only truth makes us free!

There are times when I remember back
Wish to hug the child about to crack
I’ll tell him, “Wait, it won’t be long
Trust your heart and just stay strong”
‘Cause baby, they all tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
This is how we found our way
Now here I stand
There’s no pretend
My walls are down, my heart’s in your hand
Unchain my wings
And the oceans of tears will fade to black
With the sum of my years
They all tried to break us
Tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
They don’t know
This is how we found our way
This is how we found our way
Herе I stand
My walls are down, my heart’s in your hand
They all triеd to break us
To break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
They don’t know
This is how we found our way
There are times when I remember back
And all I do is smile
All for you
They all tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
And this is how we found our way
