BROKEN CROWN, IRON SPINE

[INTRO]
Yeah… you want another pound of flesh?
Come take it.

[VERSE 1]
Clock spits another sunrise, cold and grey
Same chain, different lock, another day
You built the cage, then blame me for the bite
I carve my name in ash with fading light
They sell hope in bottles, redemption in a pill
But the walls keep closing, and the ladder's still
I hold the ash of every promise you burned
You want my loyalty? Look what I earned

[PRE-CHORUS 1]
You say "pull yourself up" with your boot on my chest
I've bled for "fairness" since my first breath
So save your prayers, save your pity parade
I don't need your system – I'm a renegade

[CHORUS 1]
No gods, no ghosts, no hand-me-down grace
Just knuckles and rust and this mark on my face
You want my surrender? I'll give you my teeth
I crawl through the mud, but I won't kiss the feet
Let the sky fall, let the ground shake
I'll dig through the rubble with a spine that won't break
No fairness, no rescue, no prayer in my throat
Just blood on the rhythm – and I own the song

[VERSE 2]
I watched the good die quiet, the cruel go fat
Justice is a word they teach you to forget
My father's ghost still works a double shift
I carry his hammer, but I won't carry his weight
You call it "attitude" – I call it air
When every door is locked, you learn not to care
I've been broke in ways your gold can't repair
But broke doesn't mean broken – it means unchained

[PRE-CHORUS 2]
You say "pull yourself up" with your boot on my chest
I've bled for "fairness" since my first breath
So keep your prayers, keep your pity parade
Your system built this monster – now watch me rage

[CHORUS 2]
No gods, no ghosts, no hand-me-down grace
Just knuckles and rust and this mark on my face
You want my surrender? I'll give you my teeth
I crawl through the mud, but I won't kiss the feet
Let the sky fall, let the ground shake
I'll dig through the rubble with a spine that won't break
No fairness, no rescue, no prayer in my throat
Just blood on the rhythm – and I own the song

[BRIDGE]
I have fallen so hard I kissed the other side
Seen the face of nothing and walked back wide-eyed
Three jobs, six funerals, two friends still alive
The rest? Ghosts I carry to keep my will alive
You want to know despair? It's a quiet room
Where your dreams die slow, but you still tend the broom
And you sweep, and you sweep, and you don't ask why
Because stopping is a luxury for those who never tried
But here's the truth they don't put in the song
When you've got no one left – you find out you're strong
'Cause the only hand that ever pulled you up… was your own

[GUITAR SOLO]

[BREAKDOWN / CLIMAX]
Bury me in "almost"
Drown me in "too late"
I built a church from concrete
And the only saint is my will

I STAND ALONE – BUT I STAND
I BLEED ALONE – BUT I BLEED WITH DEMAND

[OUTRO]
No fairness…
One fist… one breath…
A heart that still swings…
…after the bell.
