[Intro]
Hiding in the dark, screams all around
A boy with bruised dreams, won’t make a sound
Cold hands, black eye, the price of his fathers pain
He’s at again, no man, just a drunk remains
[Verse 1]
Mirror cracked, a bruised face with a vacant stare
A home built from vodka, a sober man was rare
Rage like thunder, tears through the night
And in the arms of darkness, he whispers, ‘I’ll fight’
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a scream beneath the surface
A cry that no one hears
Buried deep in the burden
Of all the shattered years
[Chorus]
Fighting fire with fury, he’s breaking free to rise
The ashes of his childhood
Burning in the skies
With every bruise a story, with every tear a song
He’ll find the strength to sever, what’s been wrong all along
[Verse 2]
The walls close around him, he can’t stop the tears
He feels the weight, yet he hides the fear
His pain found in a bottle, every day it’s the same
A liter down and more bottles remain
Ohhh
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a scream beneath the surface
A cry that no one hears
Buried deep in the burden
Of all the shattered years
[Chorus]
Fighting fire with fury, he’s breaking free to rise
The ashes of his childhood
Burning in the skies
With every bruise a story, with every tear a song
He’ll find the strength to sever, what’s been wrong all along
[Bridge]
Tears turn to battle cries, a new boy found
He’ll be the bigger man, get outta this town
Leave this shell of a man and house of hell
Get his freedom and a story to tell
[Outro]
The boy who faced the darkness, now carries the light
In the echoes of his past, he’ll find a way to fight
