[Verse]
Straw scattered ‘round the whelping box so tight
Smallest body born into the fight
Littermates pushing, claiming mother’s side
Father’s eyes turned cold, “Mongrel,” he sighed
One eye blue as mountain sky above
One eye brown as the earth I learned to love
Millicent’s whisper cut through the dark
“Gunther, my boy, you’ve got a warrior’s heart”
[Pre-chorus]
They judged the size but couldn’t see the flame
The fire burning, calling out my name
[Chorus]
The smaller the paw print, the grander the dream!
Defiant spirit bursting at the seams
From the barn floor to the wild and free
I ran through storms to find my destiny
Smallest Rottweiler with the loudest roar
Proving every doubter wrong forevermore
Heart over height, will over might
I achieved the impossible, own the night!
[Verse]
Tire rolling wild down the dusty slope
Claws digging in, holding onto hope
Landed on father’s chest, eyes locked in stare
Showed him courage doesn’t come from size or fear
Ran from the kennel, tunnel dark and deep
Chasing K-9 dreams that wouldn’t let me sleep
Met a wolf named Magnus in the mountain’s hold
Hunted, fought the grizzly, turned the story bold
Saved my brother’s life in the pouring rain
Learned the wild’s lessons, broke every chain
[Pre-chorus]
Mother’s lullaby echoing through the years
“You are my sunshine” conquering all my fears
[Chorus]
The smaller the paw print, the grander the dream!
Defiant spirit bursting at the seams
From the barn floor to the wild and free
I ran through storms to find my destiny
Smallest Rottweiler with the loudest roar
Proving every doubter wrong forevermore
Heart over height, will over might
I achieved the impossible, own the night!
[Bridge]
Unique eyes see what others fail to find
Blue for the hope, brown for the grind
From Payge’s arms to the patrol car’s seat
Hero in the crisis, saving those in need
Crazy Willie down, family reunited
The runt who rose up, the legend ignited
Father’s pride now, mother’s tears of joy
The smallest one became their pride and boy
[Chorus]
The smaller the paw print, the grander the dream! (Grander dream!)
I’m the smallest Rottweiler, living the extreme
Badge on my chest, scars on my soul
The journey made me whole, made me whole!
Yeah, smaller paw print… grander dream!
I made it through the dark into the light
Grander dream… it’s forever mine!
(Rise up! Own the fight!)Smallest paw print… grandest dream
The smallest Rottweiler… hear me scream!
