[Verse]
When the city sleeps, I'm wide awake
Staring at these broken dreams, too much at stake
I'll never conform, I won't blend in
I'll be the voice that echoes through the din (oh-oh-oh)

[Chorus]
I won't let the darkness take control (take control)
I'll light a fire, it will burn bright, oh (oh-oh-oh)
No matter how they try to bury me, underground
I'll rise above, they'll never break me down (down)
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down

(Verse 2)
They whisper doubts, they try to dim my light
But I won't listen, I'll keep on fighting through the night
Fueling my passion, the rhythm in my soul
This ain't a trend, it's a story to be told (oh-oh-oh)

(Chorus)
I won't be silenced, I'll make them hear my sound (hear my sound)
My voice will rise above, break the chains that bind me down (down)
No matter how they judge, no matter what they say
I'll break the mold, rewrite the ending of the day (day)
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down

(Bridge)
From the ashes I will rise, stronger than before
My spirit untamed, forevermore
With every beat of my heart, a defiant roar
This is my anthem, forevermore (oh-oh-oh)

(Chorus)
I won't be controlled, I'll break the chains they hold (chains they hold)
My spirit burning bright, a story yet untold
No matter where I go, my voice will always fly
I'll touch the sky, reaching for the endless sky (sky)
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down
(Ooh-yeah, ooh-ooh-yeah) Never break me down

(Outro)
So let the music play, let my spirit ignite
I'll shine so bright, forever burning in the night
With every scream, every chord, I'll take flight
Never broken, forever bathed in the pop punk light
