[Intro]
(Screamed)
Yeah!
Rise up!
This one's for the ones still fighting!
Still breathing!
Still standing!

[Verse 1]
I was drowning in the darkness, sinking to the floor,
Every scar I carried left me begging for more,
Every door slammed shut, every bridge burned down,
Every smile turned fake when I needed them around.

The pressure kept building like a bomb in my chest,
Every second felt like another brutal test,
I was losing my grip on the edge of my soul,
Then you pulled me back before I lost control.

You saw a warrior hidden underneath the pain,
A fire still burning through the thunder and rain,
When the voices screamed failure, you screamed louder still,
And your faith became the weapon that strengthened my will.

[Pre-Chorus]
When the walls closed in and the sky turned black,
You were the force that pulled me back,
When I stood at the edge and was ready to fall,
Your voice became the loudest of them all.

[Chorus]
(Melodic Metal Chorus)
You give me a reason to continue on living,
When the world takes everything, you're still giving,
Your faith in me keeps me strong through the pain,
Keeps me marching forward through the fire and rain.
You give me a reason when the light disappears,
A reason to battle through the doubt and the fear,
Your faith in me keeps me strong, all along,
You're the reason I keep holding on.


[Rap Verse]
Fast pace, heart race, running through a war zone,
Broken to the bone but I built a stronger backbone,
Everybody talking like they know what I've been through,
They don't know the battles that I fought just to get through.

Blood on the pavement, sweat on the ground,
Fighting every demon trying to drag me down,
But you stood beside me when the world turned cold,
When my heart felt shattered and my spirit felt old.

Now I'm charging through the chaos like a runaway train,
Turning every single loss into a lesson from pain,
Got a beast inside me and it's ready to attack,
Every time I get knocked down, I keep coming back.

No surrender, no retreat, no backing away,
No matter what the darkness got to say,
Because your belief hit harder than steel ever could,
Turned a broken soul into something good.


[Breakdown]
(Heavy guitars chugging)

You believed!
When I couldn't!

You stood strong!
When I wouldn't!

You gave me hope!
When hope was gone!

Now hear me roar!
I'm moving on!


[Chorus]
You give me a reason to continue on living,
When the world takes everything, you're still giving,
Your faith in me keeps me strong through the pain,
Keeps me marching forward through the fire and rain.
You give me a reason when the light disappears,
A reason to battle through the doubt and the fear,
Your faith in me keeps me strong, all along,
You're the reason I keep holding on.


[Bridge – Rapid Fire Rap]
I won't break, won't fold, won't crack under pressure,
Every wound, every scar only made me better,
Every storm, every fight, every sleepless night,
Built the armor that I'm wearing when it's time to ignite.

You were there when the world tried to bury my name,
Now I'm standing in the spotlight, feeding the flame,
Every doubt that haunted me is dead and gone,
Because your faith made me stronger than I've ever become.


[Final Chorus]
(Huge melodic vocals with screaming underneath)

You give me a reason to continue on living,
A reason to fight, a reason for believing,
Your faith in me keeps me strong every day,
Keeps my feet moving forward on the hardest way.

You give me a reason to rise from the grave,
To stand unbroken, fearless, and brave,
Your faith in me keeps me strong, hear this song,
And because you believed in me...

(Screamed)
I'LL CARRY ON!

[Outro]
(Heavy guitars fading out)
Your faith in me keeps me strong...
Through the fire...
Through the pain...
Through it all...
I'll carry on.
