Sober Steel Reset

[Verse 1]
Woke up in a dead-end dawn
Ashtray lungs and a rusted soul
Had my name in a losing hand
House of cards about to fold
Shook the dust from this old black coat
Left those bottles on the floor
One deep breath
One last look
Then I slammed that swinging door
[Chorus]
This is my sober steel reset
Clean veins
Wild heart
No regret
Raise my hands to the burning sun
Yeah
I ride this life on sober fun
Sober steel reset
Hear that old pain fade
One more step
On the road I made
[Verse 2]
Used to chase that hollow burn
Every night the same blind game
All my saints turned into ghosts
Every mirror showed me shame
Now it’s black coffee and barbell clang
Laugh so hard that my ribs feel torn
Every scar
Every crooked choice
Hammered into something reborn
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] I was crawling in the gutter of my mind
[growled backing] “You will fall
You will fall
Every time”
Then a spark cut through like a silver blade
Now I stand in the flame
Unafraid
Unafraid
[guitar solo]
[full voice] I got brothers at my side when the dark gets loud
We’re a battle-scarred
Sober
Unbroken crowd
[Chorus]

metal, Hybrid of gritty blues-rock and soaring symphonic power metal; male vocals. Opens with dirty slide guitar and roomy drums, then surges into double-kick gallop, choirs, and string stabs in the chorus. Verses stay mid-tempo and bluesy with bent notes and organ pads; chorus leaps into heroic tempo and key lift. Big gang shouts on key lines, guitar harmony lead in the bridge, then final chorus with stacked vocals and cymbal wash., power metal, blues
