Intro
Cold shower, cold world, no flinch, no fold, Steel in my soul, pressure turn coal to gold. Ain’t prayin’ for peace, I’m trainin’ for pain, Every scar I earn reprograms my brain.
Verse 1
Used to drown in excuses, cry for a hand, Now I lift that weight till I don’t need a hand. Overweight, underdriven — that was my past, Now I run through storms just to feel that blast. Mind like muscle, yeah I tear, then grow, Every failure’s just fire in the forge I stoke. No ease, no luck, no comfort zone, I build strength from the hurt, turn struggle to home.
Pre-chorus
They want rest, I want war with my weakness, Pain be the preacher, discipline my thesis.
Chorus
I got mental armor, can’t crack my code, Fire in my chest when the world get cold. Every loss I took just built my soul, Unbreakable, yeah—mindstate gold. (🔁 "Unbreakable, unbreakable" echo chant)
Verse 2
Quit complainin’, that’s power you trade, Comfort a coffin, I ain’t diggin’ that grave. Excuses block motion, I bulldoze mine, Every “can’t” I heard just sharpened my spine. From nothin’ to Navy, pain was my pilot, Hundred pounds down, silence turned to riot. Discipline daily, motivation’s fake, Systems over hype—yeah, habits what’s great.
Pre-chorus
Do one hard thing, then I double the dose, Cold mind, warm heart, stay clear, stay close.
Chorus
I got mental armor, can’t crack my code, Fire in my chest when the world get cold. Every loss I took just built my soul, Unbreakable, yeah—mindstate gold.
Bridge
Five-second pause, deep breath, I reign, Ride them waves, don’t drown in pain. Failure ain’t loss, it’s a gym for the brain, Every L a lesson, every scar my chain.
Chorus
I got mental armor, pressure made bold, Discipline > hype, yeah, that’s pure gold. When the fear starts knockin’, I reload mode, Unbreakable, yeah—mindstate gold.
Outro
This my code, no break, no quit, Pain my gym, I’m built for it. Steel in my will, truth I hold, Mentally unbreakable, mindstate gold.
Inside the recording
Cold shower, cold world, no flinch, no fold, Steel in my soul, pressure turn coal to gold.
They want rest, I want war with my weakness, Pain be the preacher, discipline my thesis.
This my code, no break, no quit, Pain my gym, I’m built for it.
