[Verse 1]
I came in worn out shoes
With dust on my name
Had a storm in my ribs
And a fire in my veins
You can knock on this chest
Hear the old truth ring
I was built from the break
And the break made me sing
[Pre-Chorus]
I bend, I don't fold
I bite down, I hold
If the room turns cold
My blood stays bold
[Chorus]
Soul core, hard core
Say it again
Soul core, hard core
Still standing in the wind
Soul core, hard core
You know I won't cave
Soul core, hard core
I was born to break chains
[Verse 2]
My hands know the scrape
My back knows the load
I walked through the blame
On a red dirt road
When they left me for done
I learned how to rise
Put a crown on my scars
And a flame in my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
I bend, I don't fold
I bite down, I hold
If the room turns cold
My blood stays bold
[Chorus]
Soul core, hard core
Say it again
Soul core, hard core
Still standing in the wind
Soul core, hard core
You know I won't cave
Soul core, hard core
I was born to break chains
[Bridge]
Let the wolves at the gate
Let the thunder roll
I got iron in my faith
And a drum in my soul
If I hit the ground hard
I come back harder
From the smoke of the hurt
I rise sharper
[Final Chorus]
Soul core, hard core
Say it again
Soul core, hard core
Still standing in the wind
Soul core, hard core
You know I won't cave
Soul core, hard core
I was born to break chains
Soul core, hard core
Hear me coming back
Soul core, hard core
Nothing pulls me back
