Becoming – Part III – The Fire
Verse 1
I felt the world around me tightening its grip,
Every rule they handed down was just another script.
I tried to play it quiet, tried to keep my head down low—
But something in my bloodstream said it’s time to let it go.
Pre‑Chorus
The pressure kept on building,
A spark beneath my skin.
A heartbeat like a warning
That the fire would begin.
Chorus
Light it up—I’m done with running.
Feel the spark—my heart is drumming.
No more fear, no more quiet nights.
I’m breaking out, I’m taking flight.
Strike the match, I’m rising higher—
I’m not who I was…
I’m becoming fire.
Verse 2
I heard the voices telling me to stay between the lines,
But every step I tried to take was never really mine.
The shadows tried to hold me, but I slipped right through their hands—
A boy who found his courage in the places no one stands.
Pre‑Chorus
The fuse was getting shorter,
The truth was getting loud.
A future pulling forward
Through the smoke inside the crowd.
Chorus
Light it up—I’m done with running.
Feel the spark—my heart is drumming.
No more fear, no more quiet nights.
I’m breaking out, I’m taking flight.
Strike the match, I’m rising higher—
I’m not who I was…
I’m becoming fire.
Bridge
I don’t know where I’m going,
But I know I can’t stay.
Every heartbeat’s a warning
That I’m changing today.
If the world tries to stop me,
Let it fall behind—
I’m a flame that’s in motion,
I’m a life redefined.
Final Chorus
Light it up—I’m done with running.
Feel the spark—my heart is drumming.
No more fear, no more quiet nights.
I’m breaking out, I’m taking flight.
Strike the match, I’m rising higher—
I’m not who I was…
I’m becoming fire.
