In the shadows of the smokestacks Where the steel meets the sky I feel the weight of their whispers Telling me I can't fly Fear keeps me chained in this city Where dreams go to rust and die But deep inside, a fire's burning And I know it's time to rise I won't be held down Not in this industrial town! I'm breaking the chains I'm taking my name! I'm standing my ground No longer bound! They build walls of concrete and judgement Try to keep our voices small But I hear the call of freedom And I ain't afraid to fall With every step, my heart is pounding Defiance in my veins I'll scream louder than the factories It's time to set the world ablaze! I won't be held down Not in this industrial town! I'm breaking the chains I'm taking my name! I'm standing my ground No longer bound! Fear is just a fleeting shadow And hope's a roaring flame I'll rise like the Sun in the morning I'll never be the same! Through the smoke and the darkness I'll forge my own way With the spirit of the restless I'll chase the night away! I'm breaking the chains I'm taking my name! I'm standing my ground No longer bound! So hear me now, hear me loud I'm done with silence, I'm proud! I won't be held down Not in this industrial town! I'm breaking the chains I'm taking my name! I'm standing my ground No longer bound! I won't be held down I won't be held down!
