Ride like I’m alive

(Verse 1)

Every scar on my skin, it’s a map of where I’ve been

Every heartbreak, every sin, I carried like a chain within

Yeah, I fought for a place I could finally breathe

But the world kept takin’ pieces, never lettin’ me leave

I was living in the shadows of the pain I survived

Til the engine roared awake — like it kept me alive

(Pre-Chorus)

Wind in my lungs, dust in my teeth

Somewhere on this highway, I found me

(Chorus)

So I ride like I’m alive

Like fire in my veins won’t ever die

Every mile, every sunrise

Burns the past out of my mind

I lost so much, but tonight I’ll fly

Lay my demons in the dark behind

Yeah, I ride like I’m alive

For the first damn time

(Verse 2)

I used to break in silence, curled tight in the fear

Now the thunder underneath me is all that I hear

City lights fade out like the lies they told

Metal heart beating loud — turning pain into gold

A lifetime of conflict turned to gasoline

Now I’m free in the places they said I’d never be

(Pre-Chorus)

Wind in my lungs, dust in my teeth

Finally feel my soul come back to me

(Chorus)

So I ride like I’m alive

Like fire in my veins won’t ever die

Every mile, every sunrise

Burns the past out of my mind

I lost so much, but tonight I’ll fly

Lay my demons in the dark behind

Yeah, I ride like I’m alive

For the first damn time

(Bridge)

Let the wheels spin out the sorrow

Let the road rewrite tomorrow

If the sky falls, let it follow

I’ll be gone before I break

‘Cause I’m done carrying the weight

(Breakdown)

I’m done being broken

This wind is my omen

The chains are wide open

I’m never going back — NEVER going back

(Final Chorus)

So I ride like I’m alive

Yeah, fire in my veins — I WILL survive

I’m not the damage that they left behind

I’m the roar that rises through the night

I lost so much but tonight I’ll fly

Lay my demons in the dark behind

Yeah, I ride like I’m alive

Like it’s the first damn time
