[Intro]
[gritty singing]
Iron grip round my chest
Breathing’s shallow I can’t rest
Every second feels like theft
[Verse 1]
Battle cries inside my skull
Shadows rise my heart gets pulled
Downward spiral black as coal
But I see their faces — my daughters my goal
Can’t break now they need my soul
[Prechorus]
No chains will hold me no dark will bind
The fear’s a liar I won’t resign
[Chorus]
I’m fighting back with fists of flame
Against the weight against the shame
I see my girls they call my name
Iron grip won’t claim my frame
I’m fighting back I’m not the same
[Verse 2]
Mirror cracks shows my disguise
Every flaw reflected twice
But I won’t sink beneath the ice
My wife’s hands pull me upright
Her faith’s my weapon in this fight
[Prechorus]
No chains will hold me no dark will bind
The fear’s a liar I won’t resign
