"Steel shakes, Breath holds"
“One more set, Don’t skip, Not again”
Every Tuesday’s a funeral for my knees
Quads screaming like I sinned in my sleep
I rack the bar, stare at the mirror
Legs trembling, but the will gets clearer
I’ve dodged too much in my life already
Skipped too many reps, blamed being not ready
Life don’t grow where comfort sits
So I brace, go deep, and let the iron hit
Stairs become mountains after sets
I limp with pride, no regrets
My sweat writes a scripture on this mat
This ain’t just gym, it’s where I fight back
Counting down like a bomb in my brain
3…2…1 — explode the pain
Knees crack, breath cuts, world fades
But I move, one rep closer to grace
LEGDAY, my knees shake,
I break, but I won’t flake
Hate this pain, but it builds me up,
No growth if you don’t break
LEGDAY, it’s hell disguised,
But I need it just to feel alive
Drag me down, I’ll still rise
This pain? It’s how I survive
Some days legday ain’t even the gym
It’s bills stacked up, or messages dim
It’s ghosting texts and closing tabs
It’s shaking hands with your own damn past
Debt is a barbell, shame is a squat
And heartbreak? That’s a leg press you forgot
All the weight you never asked to hold
Still, you carry it like your soul’s been sold
You walk funny, not from lunges
But from life’s punches, dream crunches
But you show up, reps on the soul
Legday ain’t just muscle, it’s control
Another drop, another sigh
“What if I just walked by?”
But no — you step under, no excuse
Because quitting once makes twice the bruise
LEGDAY, my knees shake,
I break, but I won’t flake.
Hate this pain, but it builds me up
No growth if you don’t break
LEGDAY, it’s hell disguised,
But I need it just to feel alive
Drag me down, I’ll still rise
This pain? It’s how I survive
I almost skipped today.
Made excuses in my head, felt weak, felt gray
But I showed up — shaky hands, sore thighs
Sometimes just showing up is how strength lies
The mirror doesn’t cheer. The weight doesn’t care
But I chose to lift, I chose despair
And somehow, I rose
One ugly, glorious, trembling pose
LEGDAY, no one claps,
But I walk out with thunder in my laps
My breath is pain, my back is sore,
But I’m more alive than I was before
LEGDAY, you break to heal,
And through the hurt, I start to feel
Hate this pain, but it made me real
This is strength. This is my deal
“See you next legday, Don’t skip”
"Steel shakes, Breath holds"
“One more set, Don’t skip, Not again”
Every Tuesday’s a funeral for my knees
Quads screaming like I sinned in my sleep
