Heavy Chains

[Heavy djent riff intro]

[Verse 1]
Each step takes more force
Through this thick air
Can't lift my feet up
Don't know why or where
Something's holding me back
Like gravity doubled
Moving slow through space
Mind gets so troubled

[Pre-chorus]
Feel the weight press down
On my shoulders, on my chest
Try to shake it loose
But I'm failing every test

[Chorus]
My body's heavy but I gotta move
(Gotta move, gotta break through)
These chains around me, what can I prove?
(Prove to you, prove it's true)

[Verse 2]
Bass line pulls me in
But I'm stuck in place
Arms won't swing right
Lost my sense of grace
Everything's dragging
Like swimming in lead
The groove calls my name
But I'm filled with dread

[Pre-chorus]
Feel the weight press down
On my spirit, in my head
Try to break away
But I'm trapped here instead

[Chorus]
My body's heavy but I gotta move
(Gotta move, gotta break through)
These chains around me, what can I prove?
(Prove to you, prove it's true)

[Bridge]
[Heavy breakdown]
Slow...
Motion...
Life...
(Let me breathe...)

[Chorus - Final]
My body's heavy but I gotta move
(Gotta move, gotta break through)
These chains around me, what can I prove?
(Prove to you, prove it's true)

[Outro - Heavy djent riff with funk bass]

This isn’t just an album. It’s a place.

A place you don’t choose to enter, it finds you.

The Dark Place was created in silence.
In numb rooms. On nights when you couldn’t explain what was wrong.
When pretending felt like lying. When music became medicine.

Released for Men’s Mental Health Month,
this is not a cry for help.
This is proof of survival.

Some tracks are brutal.
Some are sarcastic.
Some are broken.
And some—are just here to keep us breathing.

No Chains, No Masters

Enemy Within is a raw and powerful exploration of inner chaos and emotional warfare. Fusing the aggressive energy of nu metal with the melodic depth of alternative rock and the relentless pulse of modern rock, the album dives deep into themes of self-destruction, isolation, and the search for identity. Each track is a confrontation—a battle between rage and vulnerability, noise and silence, shadow and light. With crushing guitar riffs, haunting melodies, and emotionally charged vocals, Enemy Within doesn’t just speak to the darkness—it becomes it. This is not just an album; it’s a cathartic scream from the inside out.
