(The city taught me how to fall and rise again, the night became the only friend I knew, I watched them break the ones who stood in their way, the ones who dared to dream like I do, I swore to myself I'll survive this war, I'll become stronger than fate's design, but every step I climbed it left a scar, from battles fought but left behind)

(The price of the decision my heart in flames, the price of the decision living in this war, I rose above the heavens I touched the stars, but lost myself somewhere in the dark, the price of the decision the light and the fall, they scream my name like I'm a king, but if I'm honest I'm just tired of being everything I never meant to be)

(The price of the decision my heart in flames, the price of the decision living in this war, I rose above the heavens I touched the stars, I rose so high I reached so far, the price of the decision the light and the fall, they scream my name they scream my name, but if I'm honest I'm just tired of being the one who carried it all)

(Sometimes in the silence of the night, I see the boy I was before the fight, without the titles without the weight, before I learned to love the hate, but if I could turn back time tonight, I'd choose the fire again, I'd choose the fire again, because the road is stronger than the fear, and destiny has already made it clear, it's holding my hand)

(The price of the decision my heart in flames, the price of the decision to live among the stars, I rose and rose I never knew the end, but somewhere on the road I lost my friend, the price of the decision the loudest life, the quiet pain the quiet pain, if you can hear me just hold on tight, because the road chooses us sometimes)
