Welcome to the forum. What happens when it gets to the end of the bar? Any messages? Anything on the screen?

You can try an Internet recovery:

Everything may well be lost, but you can restore from backups.

How do you know your keyboard is working if you can't use it to get into the various boot modes?

The lights don't mean anything. What does "open the command and v" mean?

Thee boot key combos need to be held down until the machine is almost completely booted to work, not just clicked, or short pressed.
