Shadow On My Side

[Verse 1]
Wake up
Same scars
New arc
Load up
Solo in the dark
Rank F
Heart S
Black threads
Crawling up around my chest
Every failure on the floor
Like cards
Every "never" on my back
Like marks
Click save on the pain
Press start
I'm the glitch in the game
Wild card
[Chorus]
I’ve been solo leveling
Leveling
Cut my chains
Now I’m settling nothing (hey)
From the gutter to the god-tier side
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
All these gates in my head swing wide
Turn my grief into grind
Into pride
If I fall
Then I rise each time
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
[Verse 2]
Cold crowd
Loud doubt
They chant
"Know your place
Just tap out"
Black hood
Blue flame
My name
Written in a killstreak frame
Every boss that they said I can’t
Turned to dust in the palm of my hand
I don’t pray to a throne or a clan
I evolve
I adapt
I advance
[Chorus]
I’ve been solo leveling
Leveling
Cut my chains
Now I’m settling nothing (yeah)
From the gutter to the god-tier side
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
All these gates in my head swing wide
Turn my grief into grind
Into pride
If I fall
Then I rise each time
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
[Bridge]
[Beat drops
Filtered guitars
Vocal up front]
Low life
High stats
I was built
For the comeback
Heartbreak
XP
Every scar
Is a skill tree
Pick pain
Pick rage
Pick faith
On a dead stage
One click
Rewrite
I choose
My own fight (my own fight)
[Chorus]
I’ve been solo leveling
Leveling
Cut my chains
Now I’m settling nothing
From the gutter to the god-tier side
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
All these gates in my head swing wide
Turn my grief into grind
Into pride
If I fall
Then I rise each time
Got the shadow on my side
On my side
[Outro]
One heart
Offline
Still I
Respawn every time
No crown
Just eyes
Burning
For the next climb

rock, Hybrid K-rock / alt-nu-metal anthem with anime OP energy; distorted guitars over tight trap-rock drums, aggressive bass, and shimmering synth arps. Verses stay moody and spacious with half-sung, half-rapped male vocals; choruses explode into big emo hooks, stacked gang shouts, and octave lead guitars. Bridge drops to filtered drums and airy pads, then slams back with double-time fills and a final scream-along refrain., anime, emo, nu metal, j-pop, alternative rock, k-pop
