Iron Bars and Broken Stars

Chain-link dreams, they rattlin’ my brain

Tyrants play chess while we shoulder the pain

Smoke stack sky, black lungs, no refrain

Crumble like a statue, weathered by the acid rain

Iron bars, got me feelin’ like a caged beast

Spit fire in the belly, can't tame the heat

The streets scream louder than the preacher’s feast

Ashes in the wind, still grinding my teeth

Iron bars, broken stars, scars on my skin

Battle cries echo deep, where the fight begins

No peace, no sleep, just a war to win

Iron bars, broken stars—let the rage kick in

Blood moon’s risin’, shadows eat the day

Every word a bullet, every verse a ricochet

They built the system crooked, a rigged ballet

But I’m stompin’ on their stage till the floor decay

Molten veins, heart pumping liquid metal

Anger like a kettle, bout to blow, full rebel

The grindstone sharpens, the battle won't settle

From the rubble I rise, level after level

Rust in the chains, but I’m pullin’ through

Tidal wave mindset, crashin’ their crew

Steel in my spine, they can't undo

This fire’s eternal, it burns true
