Lyrics
[verse]
Grew up running through the streets alone
Learned to survive before I had a home
Every single lesson came with a price
Nothing in this life was ever sliced up nice
[verse]
I carry scars that nobody else can see
Every single struggle shaped the man in me
I don't trust easy, don't let many in
Learned the hard way where the story begins
[chorus]
Call me a bandit, running from the pain
Call me a bandit, dancing in the rain
I took what I needed just to make it through
Now I'm building something better, something new
Bandit heart but I'm still trying
Bandit heart but I'm still flying
[verse]
Guest verse coming with that same true story
Every single day a different kind of glory
We ain't perfect but we're standing tall
Learned to rise up every time we fall
[chorus]
Call me a bandit, running from the pain
Call me a bandit, dancing in the rain
I took what I needed just to make it through
Now I'm building something better, something new
Bandit heart but I'm still trying
Bandit heart but I'm still flying
[bridge]
Maybe one day the running finally stops
Maybe one day I reach the mountaintop
Until then I'm moving fast and free
Carrying the weight of who I used to be
[chorus]
Call me a bandit, running from the pain
Call me a bandit, dancing in the rain
I took what I needed just to make it through
Now I'm building something better, something new
Bandit heart but I'm still trying
Bandit heart but I'm still flying
