Seeds in the Matrix

THE LABYRINTH

 "No More Shadows" is an explosive and gritty rock anthem that captures the essence of resilience and empowerment. With its hard-hitting drums, driving guitar riffs, and defiant vocals, this track is a battle cry for anyone who's overcome adversity. The raw intensity and relentless energy make it perfect for fans of powerful, anthemic rock music.

Feel the fire burn inside, No escape, no place to hide. I’ve been down, I’ve been betrayed, But today, I’m unafraid.

Every scar tells a story I wear, Every breath is a fight, a dare. Pushed to the edge, dragged through the mud, But I’m still standing, soaked in my blood.

You can’t break me, I’m forged in flame, You don’t own me; I’m done with shame.

I’ll break the chains, I’ll tear them down, Rise from the ashes, take back my crown. No more shadows, no more fear, The time is now; my path is clear.

I’ve heard the lies, felt the weight, But I’m not bound by my fate. This is my war, my battlefield, With every blow, I refuse to yield.

You can’t stop me; I’m built to last, Your time is gone; the die is cast.

I’ll break the chains, I’ll tear them down, Rise from the ashes, take back my crown. No more shadows, no more fear, The time is now; my path is clear.

No regrets, no turning back, I see the light through the cracks. Every wound, every tear, Made me stronger; I don’t care.

I’ll break the chains, I’ll tear them down, Rise from the ashes, take back my crown. No more shadows, no more fear, The time is now; my path is clear.

I’ll break the chains, I’ll break the chains, Stand and fight, forever unchained.
