We said we wanted to do great things, and so great are our challenges
We set in our hearts to break the cycles, and so they purposed to break us first
We said we wanted to be different, and so they tried to wreck us
We said we wanted to stand in the gap, and so they came booted to stand on us
Our valuables are drenched in gasoline
The match has been lit š„
Set ablaze to burn to ashes
Us and our dreams all up in flames
Got burnt so many times now we are fireproof
Lived in the fire for so long now the heat is comfortable
We adapt, we adjust, we perish not
The fire only refines us
The scars show that yes we have been burnt before and we will do it all over again if need be.
Got burnt so many times, and now we are fireproof.
