Boyhood Pride Don't Bend - A Country Ballad About Regret
Boyhood Pride Don’t Bend is a country ballad about the mistakes we make when we’re young and the weight we carry for years after. Told from the perspective of a man looking back on the damage caused by his own pride, the song explores themes of guilt, regret, and the quiet hope that one day, he might make things right. This isn’t a story about perfect love. It’s a reflection on what happens when we push away the people who cared for us most, simply because we didn’t know how to be loved. The lyrics follow the journey from boyhood to manhood, where time becomes a mirror, and memory becomes a wound that never fully heals.
