Dropped down in darkness, feeling life's full force
Each day a battle, an endless, brutal course
I was a lost soul, just a number, a name
Till that sweet tune came on, igniting the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Riffs that cut through chaos, lyrics that embrace
Melodies like armor in this endless race
Lost in the static, in the noise and the rain
Life had me down, in the alley of pain
Each note's a rescue, picked me up from the floor
Strumming my revival, gave me wings to soar
[Verse 2]
Screaming amps surround me, they're my fortress wall
In the pit of the faithful, I stand tall
In a world of silence, my heart nearly froze
But I found my salvation through the power of those
Heavy chords that speak, melodies that scream
Lyrics like my lifeline, in the dark, a beam
[Chorus]
I live for the rhythm, I breathe the guitar's strife
For each pounding drum, I thank 'em for my life
God handed me this gift, a destiny untamed
To wield the six-string sword, in fire I was claimed
Solo rages on, bends and frets scream out
My anthem to the skies, of this there is no doubt
[Chorus]
With every strum I've found my place, my shout against the void
A crafted solo's my voice, the power I've employed
