[Verse]
Steel spine bending, world on my shoulders
Cold winds biting, but my heart grows bolder
Pressure cookin’, diamonds out the coal mines
Time tickin’, but I’m spittin’ with a gold mind
Knuckles raw, pavement kissed 'em twice
Sweat drippin’, paid the ultimate price
Mountain climbs, no summit too steep
I dream awake, they talkin’ in their sleep
[Chorus]
When the going gets tough, don’t fold, go harder
Life’s a marathon, not a quick barter
Push through the pain, break through the armor
Harder, harder, sharper than a martyr
[Verse 2]
Veins pump lava, fire in my belly
World’s heavy hands swingin’, but they can’t fell me
Battle scars stitched with threads of ambition
Tunnel vision sharper than a surgeon's precision
Fists swingin’, shadows dance in the fog
Every loss a lesson, not a catalog
Rainstorms drownin', but my roots dig deep
They pray I fall, but I rise in my sleep
[Chorus]
When the going gets tough, don’t fold, go harder
Life’s a marathon, not a quick barter
Push through the pain, break through the armor
Harder, harder, sharper than a martyr
