(Verse 1)
I woke to whispers crawling deep inside my mind,
A hidden curse in every step along the way,
They fed on every doubt I tried to leave behind,
Turned every ounce of hope into decay.
They traced my shadow back to where the pain began,
A childhood filled with voices in my head,
Each step I take feels like a war I never planned,
But I refuse a life among the dead.
(Chorus)
Never surrender, I won’t break at all,
I run through fire while the demons rise,
Faster than madness, I outrun the pull,
I stand, I fight — I never compromise.
(Solo Heavy Guitar)
(Verse 2)
They hunt me through the dark like beasts that never sleep,
A thousand faces shaped from every fear I’ve known,
They drag their chains across the vows I always keep,
Still I remain — I stand alone.
I feel them reaching, trying hard to take control,
They whisper softly, “Let it end tonight,”
But every step I take ignites a stronger soul,
I turn their pressure into fight.
(Chorus)
Never surrender, I won’t break at all,
I run through fire while the demons rise,
Faster than madness, I outrun the pull,
I stand, I fight — I never compromise.
(Verse 3)
Now I’m the storm that they were always meant to fear,
The hunted shifting into something far more strong,
I forged my will from every trial that brought me here,
And now I know where I belong.
No more running — now I face what I became,
I meet the darkness with a force they can’t contain,
I took the chaos, gave it structure, gave it name,
And now I dominate the pain.
(Chorus)
Never surrender, I won’t break at all,
I run through fire while the demons rise,
Faster than madness, I outrun the pull,
I stand, I fight — I never compromise.
(Final Chorus – Extended)
Never surrender, I won’t break at all,
I run through fire while the demons rise,
Faster than madness, I outrun the pull,
I stand, I fight — I never compromise.
Never surrender, hear the battle cry,
I won’t fade out, I was born to defy,
Through every shadow, I will never die,
I am the storm — I redefine.
