The Fire That Got You Here

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There was something in those eyes from the start A quiet fire burning in a young heart When the road got steep, you didn't turn around You kept your feet steady on the ground Even when the world tried to hold you down [Chorus] Look at you now, standing tall and strong Every step you took, you carried on Through the longest nights, you found your way And we couldn't be more proud today This is just the start, your story's just begun [Verse 2] Shon Jr, we watched you push through every wall When it would've been easy just to let it fall You adjusted, learned, and found a better way Turned the setbacks into stepping stones you'd lay From a boy with dreams into a man who stays [Chorus] Look at you now, standing tall and strong Every step you took, you carried on Through the longest nights, you found your way And we couldn't be more proud today This is just the start, your story's just begun [Bridge] It's not just the degree upon the wall It's the character you built through it all The discipline, the heart, the will to fight Shon Jr, you became your own light [Verse 3] Your mother and I see everything you are The sacrifice, the growth, every scar Responsibility runs deep inside your bones You earned this moment on your own Now take that strength wherever life may go The same fire that got you here will help you grow [Chorus] Look at you now, standing tall and strong Every step you took, you carried on Through the longest nights, you found your way And we couldn't be more proud today This is just the start, your story's just begun [Outro] We love you, we believe in all you'll be Shon Jr, go and write your legacy
