Pressure rising in the silence
Cracks form under quiet strain
But I've learned to bend with fire
Not to shatter from the pain
I carry weight in shadows
Still standing through the storm
My shape may twist and falter
But I always find my form
I was built to bend not break
I bend with every wave
I've been down but never done
I've been cut but never caved
Like steel in the heat
I shape what others take
I was built to bend not break
Scars etched like blueprints
Lessons carved in every line
The world tried to fold me
But I came back by design
I was built to bend not break
Born for winds that shake
I rise with every tremor
Even stronger when I ache
Like fire forged fate
I bend but never break
I was built to bend not break
