[Verse 1]
Boot prints
On the warehouse floor
Rust on my lungs
Breath tastes like war
Clock in
To the factory rage
Paycheck pain
Just fuel for the stage
I was raised on
Static and steel
Broke every rule
Just to feel something real
[Chorus]
I got steel in my throat, fire in my chest
Every scar that I own is a bulletproof vest
Turn my rage into roar, let the hammerhead roll
I’m a live wire, live wire, tearing the mold
Steel in my throat, scream till it shakes
Break my bones, but you can’t break what it makes
Turn my grind into gold, from the gutter I grow
I’m a live wire, live wire—ready to blow
[Verse 2]
Chain link fence
And a cold gray dawn
Whole block praying
Just to hang on
Trash can flames
In my bloodstream burn
Every closed door
Just another U-turn
Told me “sit still”
But my blood runs loud
I wear my doubt
Like a blackout crown
[Chorus]
I got steel in my throat, fire in my chest
Every scar that I own is a bulletproof vest
Turn my rage into roar, let the hammerhead roll
I’m a live wire, live wire, tearing the mold
Steel in my throat, scream till it shakes
Break my bones, but you can’t break what it makes
Turn my grind into gold, from the gutter I grow
I’m a live wire, live wire—ready to blow
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to half-time, guitars grind low]
Bang on the walls till the concrete caves
(Name every ghost that you couldn’t save)
Walk through the smoke with my teeth on edge
I carve my truth in the factory ledge (hey!)
[Chorus]
I got steel in my throat, fire in my chest
Every scar that I own is a bulletproof vest
Turn my rage into roar, let the hammerhead roll
I’m a live wire, live wire, tearing the mold
Steel in my throat, scream till it shakes
Break my bones, but you can’t break what it makes
Turn my grind into gold, from the gutter I grow
I’m a live wire, live wire—ready to blow
