[Intro]
Boom
Pow
Yeah
Turn the page
[Verse 1]
I step out the frame, cape clipped, jaw set
Ink on my hands from the pages I bled
Roof edge, one leg, watching for the threat
When the city says "help," I don't make 'em wait
Mask on, pulse up, hear the crowd gasp
Villains want a blackout, I run through that
Glove on the ledge with the cold night air
I read your fear like a speech bubble there
"Look out!"—too late, I'm already in
New bruise on my cheek, still grinning again
They said "stay down," I said "try me then"
Now the whole block chants when the storm roll in
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't bend, I don't break
When the thunder shakes
I take the blow, then I take the blame
Till the skyline say my name
[Chorus]
Panel One, I run
Panel One, I fly
Turn that fear to dust
Watch me cut the sky
Panel One, I rise
Panel One, I fight
Say it when you need me
I arrive tonight
[Verse 2]
They drew me in shadows, now I glow in the line
Every scar got a caption, every scar got time
I heard "Save us!" from a tenement door
So I kicked through the smoke like I did before
No cape for the fame, no shine for the press
I got a code in my chest and a fist in my chest
I hold up the bridge when the cables snap
Then I walk through the flame like, "I got that"
And the crooks talk slick till they hear that crack
One swing, one flash, put the whole thing back
From the back alley mook to the kingpin suit
They all freeze when they see that boot
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't bend, I don't break
When the thunder shakes
I take the blow, then I take the blame
Till the skyline say my name
[Chorus]
Panel One, I run
Panel One, I fly
Turn that fear to dust
Watch me cut the sky
Panel One, I rise
Panel One, I fight
Say it when you need me
I arrive tonight
[Bridge]
New page, new wound, same old vow
Heard the doubt turn loud, still I don't bow
"Can one hero hold this whole town?"
Watch me answer now
[Breakdown]
Pow
Crash
I heard the call
I take it all
[Final Chorus]
Panel One, I run
Panel One, I fly
Turn that fear to dust
Watch me cut the sky
Panel One, I rise
Panel One, I fight
Say it when you need me
I arrive tonight
Panel One, I run
Panel One, I fly
One more hit, one more try
Till the darkbacks die
Panel One, I rise
Panel One, I fight
Say it when you need me
I arrive tonight
