Intro (German, whispered)
Zwei Jahre.
Kein Gift.
Kein Fall.
Ich lebe.
Ich brenne.
Verse 1
I burned the poison from my veins.
Steel remains where there was pain.
Ashes scatter in the morning light.
I conquered every endless night.
No chains remain beneath my skin.
The war is over. I still win.
Every heartbeat strikes like steel.
For the first time… I can feel.
Pre-Chorus (German)
Kein Versteck.
Keine Lügen.
Ich steh auf.
Ich bleib hier.
(No hiding. No lies. I stand up. I stay here.)
Chorus
I’m addicted… to sobriety!
No master. No enemy.
I breathe fire without the flame.
I rise stronger every day.
Ich lebe frei! (I live free!)
Mein Herz ist neu! (My heart is new!)
The darkness bows.
It no longer owns me.
Verse 2
Family stood when I would fall.
Friends became my fortress wall.
Coworkers carried silent weight.
Together we rewrote my fate.
The scars remain but now they shine.
Like forged iron in the fire’s light.
The strongest steel is born through heat.
Now every step becomes a beat.
Breakdown (German)
Keine Ketten!
Keine Angst!
Keine Schatten!
Nur das Licht!
(No chains! No fear! No shadows! Only the light!)
Zwei Jahre!
Immer weiter!
Immer höher!
Ich bin frei!
(Two years! Ever onward! Ever higher! I am free!)
Bridge
Positive energy spills from my soul.
Like thunder breaking mountains whole.
If you stand where I once stood,
Know this:
You are stronger than the flood.
Final Chorus
I’m addicted… to sobriety!
This is my identity.
Every sunrise is a victory.
Every heartbeat is history.
Familie!
Freunde!
Gemeinsam! (Together!)
Raise your fists into the sky.
No surrender.
No disguise.
Only life.
Only truth.
Only me.
Outro (German, chanted)
Ich falle nicht.
(I do not fall.)
Ich kämpfe weiter.
(I keep fighting.)
Zwei Jahre.
(Two years.)
Für immer frei.
(Forever free.)
Addicted… to sobriety.
