LyricsWhat We Stand For Yves Stilmant © 2025[Verse 1] Early light through the kitchen blinds She's makin' coffee, kids in line One's got paint all over her face The baby's dancin' in the same ol' space No silver spoons, just a beat-up floor But there's love behind that screen door [Pre-Chorus] We don't need a penthouse view This little life's our point of view [Chorus] We stand for late nights, porch lights, slow rides Raised right, strong minds, good vibes Family talks and weekday grace Front steps, warm hands, soft place No big money, but hearts that shine Yeah, we love loud and work just fine That's what we breathe for That's what we stand for [Verse 2] Old records playin' while the dishes stack Football game on in the back She's in sweats and still looks gold He's home late but holds her close These little scenes that make the frame Don't need big words to stake our claim [Pre-Chorus] No white fence, no perfect plan But we've got roots where we stand [Chorus] We stand for late nights, porch lights, slow rides Raised right, strong minds, good vibes Family talks and weekday grace Front steps, warm hands, soft place No big money, but hearts that shine Yeah, we love loud and work just fine That's what we breathe for That's what we stand for [Bridge - low groove, spoken/melodic delivery] This love ain't flashy, but it's fire Holdin' each other when we're tired Dreams ain't always far or wide -- Sometimes they're right here by your side [Final Chorus - smooth, lifted harmonies] We stand for late nights, porch lights, slow rides Raised right, strong minds, good vibes Family talks and weekday grace Front steps, warm hands, soft place We don't need fame, just our own flame Livin' proud, not chasin' names That's what we breathe for That's what we stand for ________________________________________ [Outro - mellow, vocal echo] That's what we stand for... Yeah, right here... That's what we stand for |
