Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
The dawn bleeds gray, a shadowed sky,
A war within where hope can’t die.
I wear my scars like broken chains,
A silent scream beneath the pain.

Each step I take, a dagger’s sting,
But still I rise, I’ll face this thing.
This fragile body, cursed and torn,
A battlefield where fire’s born.

[Pre-Chorus]
I won’t surrender to the tide,
The weight I carry, I will stride.
A dark embrace, but still I fight,
For every breath beneath this night.

[Chorus]
Steel inside my soul, unyielding flame,
Through the endless storm, I bear the name.
A war I fight, unseen, unknown,
But in the dark, I’m all alone.

[Verse 2]
The nights are long, the silence loud,
I’m haunted by the fear I’ve vowed.
The mirrors show the fight I wage,
A tale of battles turned by rage.

I won’t bow down, I won’t let go,
The fire burns, it’s all I know.
Each tear, a spark, each wound, a hymn,
A testament of life within.

[Pre-Chorus]
I won’t surrender to the tide,
The weight I carry, I will stride.
A dark embrace, but still I fight,
For every breath beneath this night.

[Chorus]
Steel inside my soul, unyielding flame,
Through the endless storm, I bear the name.
A war I fight, unseen, unknown,
But in the dark, I’m all alone.

[Bridge]
I hear the whispers in the void,
The promises they’ve all destroyed.
Yet still I find the strength to stand,
A rebel heart with blood-stained hands.

The chains won’t hold, the shadows break,
This life is mine, my will won’t shake.
A warrior born of endless night,
I am the storm, I am the fight.

[Final Chorus]
Steel inside my soul, unyielding flame,
Through the endless storm, I bear the name.
A war I fight, unseen, unknown,
But in the dark, I’m all alone.

[Outro]
I’ll fight forever, I’ll defy the ache,
A spark of hope they cannot take.
Through broken bones, through blood-soaked cries,
I live, I fight, I rise, I rise.
