I lace up at the crack of dawn Boots hit rock, I’m already on The wind cuts sharp through my coat But I keep moving, keep my throat My heart stays hard, stays sealed in stone Still I drag my shadow up alone Every mile got teeth and weight Every step says don’t be late Oh, I feel it coming down Low by low, I’m not backing out Chop, chop, breath in my chest If I fall, I fall up next I climb, I climb, I climb Heart of stone, I’m alive I climb, I climb, I climb Through the lows, I don’t hide Stone heart, stone heart Still I move, still I move I climb, I climb, I climb Until the dark lets loose Some days taste like rusted rain Some days wear my name in pain I’ve seen the bottom, seen the cold Seen my hands turn numb and old But the peak still calls my name Through the fog and through the shame I don’t ask for softer ground I just learn to hold my ground Oh, I feel it coming down Low by low, I’m not backing out Chop, chop, breath in my chest If I fall, I fall up next I climb, I climb, I climb Heart of stone, I’m alive I climb, I climb, I climb Through the lows, I don’t hide Stone heart, stone heart Still I move, still I move I climb, I climb, I climb Until the dark lets loose Let the cold come close Let it test my bones I’ve been split and scarred Still I’m not alone Chop-chop, say my name When the shadows bite I was built from the drop And I rose through the night I climb, I climb, I climb Heart of stone, I’m alive I climb, I climb, I climb Through the lows, I don’t hide Stone heart, stone heart Still I move, still I move I climb, I climb, I climb Until the dark lets loose
