No easy way out

I’ve walked through fire with the weight of the world on my chest

Every scar a reminder of the battles I never confessed

They said, “Just let go… take the road that numbs the pain.”

But I’d rather break my bones than live my life in chains

Every night the pressure builds inside my skull

Like a thousand voices screaming I’m already done

They whisper softly, “Just quit… no one would know.”

But the blood in my veins only screams NO

I’ve been buried in doubt

I’ve been dragged through the dirt

But pain is a promise

That the fight still works

If this world wants a corpse

Then it’s gonna have to try harder

I refuse the quiet grave

I refuse to be a martyr

I WON’T TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT

I WON’T BURY MY FIRE IN THE GROUND

If the darkness wants a war

Then let it drag me down

I’LL STAND WITH BLOOD IN MY MOUTH

AND SCREAM INTO THE VOID RIGHT NOW

You can break every bone I own

But I won’t take the easy way out

They tried to tell me pain means you’re losing the game

That survival is a weakness wrapped in shame

But I’ve crawled through hell with my teeth in the stone

And every step forward proves I’m not alone

The devil in my head keeps pulling the rope

But stubborn hearts are built from defiance and hope

So carve it in iron, carve it in doubt—

This soul refuses the easy way out

(Chug… Chug… Chug…)

They want me broken

They want me gone

But I was raised in the fire

Where the dying fight on

So if the abyss wants to swallow my sound—

IT’LL CHOKE ON THE SCREAM

WHEN I DRAG MYSELF OUT

I WON’T TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT

I WON’T LET MY DEMONS WIN NOW

Through the ashes and the scars

I’ll tear the heavens down

WITH BLOOD ON MY HANDS

AND MY FEET ON THE GROUND

If the world tries to bury me

I’LL CLAW MY WAY OUT

The easy road ends in silence…

But the hard road makes you immortal.
