Born in the silk, raised in the fire
Building the throne of a hollow empire
I was selling the lightning, I was trading the rain
Until I woke up in a cave with a chest full of pain.
The hum of the arc, the beat of the drum
They didn't see what I was about to become
Just a man in a box with a pile of scrap
Building a way to escape from the trap!
Binary code and a suit of gold
Breaking the mold that the world used to hold
I’m flying higher than the radar can see
Testing the limits of who I can be!
I’m the Iron Man, burning through the atmosphere
Turning the panic into something they don't have to fear
A genius, a playboy, a ghost in the steel
Finally finding a heart that can feel!
The future is coming, and I’m holding the key
The spark in the dark... that’s gonna be me.
Stark on the building, Stark on the wing
Heavy is the head of the technological king
I fought my own demons, I fought my own name
I saw the world burning and I carried the flame.
From the streets of Manhattan to the edge of the stars
I’m still trying to heal all these internal scars
I’ve got the HUD in my eyes and the wind at my back
The world’s getting dark, but I’m ready to act!
I’ve built the walls, I’ve built the shields
I’ve seen the visions the future reveals.
Sometimes the hero has to fall in the end
To save every stranger, every family, every friend.
I’m the Iron Man, burning through the atmosphere
Turning the panic into something they don't have to fear
A genius, a playboy, a ghost in the steel
Finally finding a heart that can feel!
The future is coming, and I’m holding the key
The spark in the dark... that’s gonna be me.
Power at 100 percent...
System’s green...
The brightest light...
The world’s ever seen.
