Lyrics

Don't worry, I got this
Settle down, it's fine
In the middle of the crazy crowd
I'll protect you

In every situation I'll be there
I'm not afraid to take command
I'm not scared

I lay down the law after all
I'm a person who answers the call
When the walls cave in (When the walls cave in)
The boldest are the bravest of men
Trusted like a father's defense

(Ask me) Ask me what I think
(I'll tell you) I'll tell you what I know
Power isn't strength
It's being in control

(Sometimes) Sometimes when I'm aggressive
(People think I'm mean) People think I'm mean
(But really I'm) Really I'm just intent on
(Meeting my) Meeting my needs
Ooh

I lay down the law after all
I'm a person who answers the call
When the walls cave in (When the walls cave in)
The boldest are the bravest of men
Trusted like a father's defense

Rulers of fearless devotion
Silence defiance
Powerful leaders have earned their influence

Don't worry, I got this
You're gonna be alright
I'm not afraid to step up
And stop the fight

I lay down the law after all
I'm a person who answers the call
When the walls cave in (When the walls cave in)
The boldest are the bravest of men
Trusted like a father's defense
Trusted like a father's defense
Trusted like a father's defense
