He said, "Genie, make me the best"
The strongest plate, tougher than the rest
But wishes, they twist and turn
Now he's metal where his heart used to burn
No pulse in the steel, no breath in the chest
Bound by a wish, no time to rest
Ironbound, can't move, can't feel
Once a man, now made of steel
He thought he'd conquer the war, the fight
Now he's the armor, lost in the night
His voice is silent, no sound but the clang
When battles rage, he feels every pang
No face in the helm, just a hollow void
Dreams of glory-now he's destroyed
No pulse in the steel, no breath in the chest
Bound by a wish, no time to rest
Ironbound, can't move, can't feel
Once a man, now made of steel
He thought he'd conquer the war, the fight
Now he's the armor, lost in the night
The genie laughs in the wind so cold
A soldier turned to a cage of gold
No flesh, no blood, no soul to free
Just a warning of what could be
Ironbound, can't move, can't feel
Once a man, now made of steel
He thought he'd conquer the war, the fight
Now he's the armor, lost in the night
Genie's curse, it sealed his fate
The best armor comes far too late
Ironbound, forever more
A man turned steel-lost to war
