[Verse 1]
He came in swinging, didn't wait for permission to move,
A mind like a searchlight, always locked on the groove,
Ran on the voltage of a vision no one else could see,
Three ideas before breakfast, fourth one by mid-morning coffee,
But the house where he grew up kept rearranging its walls,
So he learned to build himself steady from the open-air halls,

[PreChorus]
That restless foundation made him harder to break,
Every shifting floorboard was a choice he'd learn to make,

[Chorus]
David, you were built for the rooms that didn't have a door,
You charged into every hallway and came back wanting more,
David, the roar inside your chest was never too loud,
The sky doesn't apologize — neither should the crowd,

[Verse 2]
He'd work through the long hours without counting the cost,
Keeping a tally of what mattered and grieving what was lost,
His loyalty runs deeper than any promise made in words,
He files away the truth of you in places no one else has heard,
And when he speaks, the sentence lands before the thought can blink —
A voice that moves like a headline and hits you like a drink,

[PreChorus]
That sharp-tongued devotion was his compass all along,
What they called too much was just a man who moved too strong,

[Chorus]
David, you carried every color when they handed you grey,
You pulled the future forward while the timid looked away,
David, the thunder in your timing was never a flaw,
The ones who built the tallest things have always broken a wall,

[Bridge]
And now the season shifts, a new weight in the air,
The stage keeps getting bigger and you're finally standing there,
Not waiting for applause before you make your move —
This is the chapter where the boldness finds its groove,

[Verse 3]
He loves like a torchbearer who refuses to drop the flame,
Grace wrapped in the deepest well, devotion without shame,
He'll hold the whole horizon open just so you can walk through,
Give you every version of the truth he's fought his way to,
The man who mapped the world for others learns his own address —
Not found in someone's verdict, but in what he does best,

[PreChorus]
The recognition he was owed was always in the work,
Every overlooked achievement left a diamond in the dirt,

[Chorus]
David, step into the arena you were always meant to claim,
No apology for glory, no footnote on your name,
David, the fire that they questioned is the fire that endures —
Every door they said was locked was always already yours,

[Outro]
David, the charge is yours to lead,
Every version of the life you want is waiting on your creed,
