Iron in My Veins

[Verse 1]
Wake up in the wreckage
Scars on my reflection
Black
Every doubt you ever threw
I load it on my back
Steel cold
Spine straight
Breath burns like a curse
I drag my demons to the rack
And crush them rep by rep
It hurts
[Chorus]
I got iron in my veins
Hear the darkness call my name (call my name)
Every weight is one more chain
That I tear apart
In the blood
In the strain
I’m the storm you couldn’t tame (couldn’t tame)
Turn the pain into a blade
Driving through my heart
[Verse 2]
Voices in the corners
Hissing
“You’re too weak”
I answer with a deadlift
Let the shadows taste concrete
Sweat like holy water
Drips onto the floor
I bury who I used to be
Under forty kilos more (hey!)
[Chorus]
I got iron in my veins
Hear the darkness call my name (call my name)
Every weight is one more chain
That I tear apart
In the blood
In the strain
I’m the storm you couldn’t tame (couldn’t tame)
Turn the pain into a blade
Driving through my heart
[Bridge]
Break form
Break fear
Every failure brought me here (here)
Black lungs
Sharp cry
Every rep says “I won’t die”
[Chorus]
I got iron in my veins
Hear the darkness call my name (call my name)
Every weight is one more chain
That I tear apart
In the blood
In the strain
I’m the storm you couldn’t tame (couldn’t tame)
Build a body from the flame
In this haunted heart

rock, Aggressive gothic hard rock with male vocals, drop-tuned guitars locked to a pounding double-kick groove, industrial-tinged layers under the verses. Choruses explode with open chords, crowd-chant backing vocals, and a snarling, upfront lead. Bridge dives into a half-time, chug-heavy breakdown with dissonant chords and a tortured scream to push the final chorus over the edge., gothic metal, motivation, hard rock
