Intro
Verse 1
In the shadow of the iron gate,
I stand alone where shadows wait.
Torch in hand, the night won't break,
Their chains won't bind the fire I take.
Eyes like steel, they dare me to fall,
But I’ve felt the whip, heard the master's call.
This heart's a furnace, burning bright,
Their world of lies won't steal my light.
Pre Chorus
Boots on the stone, echoes rise,
Their banners fall beneath my eyes.
Chorus
I won’t back down, I won’t break,
Through the smoke and dust, I stake my claim.
With every breath, I’ll fight the storm,
A beacon of fire, my spirit reborn.
I won’t back down, I won’t break.
Verse 2
Crimson skies, the dawn is near,
Their walls of stone can't silence my fear.
I’ve seen the faces of the lost,
Their cries for freedom, never crossed.
But here I stand, with sword in hand,
A solitary flame against their command.
Their boots may march, their voices roar,
But I’ll defy them, forevermore.
Pre Chorus
Boots on the stone, echoes rise,
Their banners fall beneath my eyes.
Chorus
I won’t back down, I won’t break,
Through the smoke and dust, I stake my claim.
With every breath, I’ll fight the storm,
A beacon of fire, my spirit reborn.
I won’t back down, I won’t break.
Solo
Chorus
I won’t back down, I won’t break,
Through the fire and ash, my soul awakes.
With every scar, I wear my crown,
A lone warrior, never backing down.
I won’t back down, I won’t break.
