Lyrics

[INTRO]
In the depths of my veins, a war is waged
A silent struggle, with every stage
Of life, a test, of will and might
Against the chains that bind, day and night

[VERSE1]
Red cells twisted, bent like Tetsuya's sword
Pain crisis hitting like a Final Flash, I'm flooooooooooooooored..............
Politicians talking health care like NPCs
Their promises more filler than a Bleach series
Every morning swallowing pills like Senzu beans
While they debate if my life's worth the means
Hemoglobin S got me locked in chains like Eren
Invisible disease but like Stands, I'm still bearing

[CHORUS]
Iron chains in my blood
Crimson rivers run cold
System fails us again
Like the end of Evangelion told
Iron chains in my blood
Like a Phoenix we still grow
Sick of cell after cell
Breaking down as they flow

[VERSE2]
Diagnosis at four, mama cried like Deku's mom
Now I'm fighting through the fog like I'm in Silent Hill's calm
ER visits met with doubt like I'm some Impostor
"Are you just here seeking drugs?" - that's their posture

[CHORUS]
Iron chains in my blood
Crimson rivers run cold
System fails us again
Like the end of Evangelion told
Iron chains in my blood
Like a Phoenix we still grow
Sick of cell after cell
Breaking down as they flow

[BRIDGE]
I'm more than my condition, I'm still alive
A warrior in my own right, I thrive
Through the pain and the struggle, I find my voice
I won't be silenced, I won't be a choice

[CHORUS]
Iron chains in my blood
Crimson rivers run cold
System fails us again
Like the end of Evangelion told
Iron chains in my blood
Like a Phoenix we still grow
Sick of cell after cell
Breaking down as they flow

[OUTRO]
The war within my veins will rage
But I won't back down, I'll turn the page
On a life that's worth the fight
I'll shine like a beacon in the night
