Resist

Held down by the voice inside
Told me run, told me hide
But I've worn chains I didn't make
Now I break them for my own sake
Every crack they tried to fill
Made me stronger, made me still
Resist
When the world caves in
When the dark begins
Stand tall and let it twist
Resist
When your breath runs low
And there's nowhere to go
Let them know you still exist
Built my spine from broken glass
Every wound a lesson passed
They thought silence was defeat
But I found fire underneath
I don't need a flawless path
Just a reason not to crash
Resist
When the world caves in
When the dark begins
Stand tall and let it twist
Resist
When your breath runs low
And there's nowhere to go
Let them know you still exist
I'm not here to fade away
I'm the noise they tried to kill
Resist
When the weight pulls down
When you're lost in the sound
Just scream until they quit
Resist
When they write you off
When the light gets soft
You're still fire in the mist
You still exist
