I'm on Fire

Verse

I was building bridges, you were lighting matches,

Painted friendship gold, peeled it back—just scratches.

You cropped me from the frame, left a shadow in my place,

Now every laugh you share is a slap across my face.

They say keep your enemies close, but who’s the enemy now?

You were family, but snakes don’t wear a crown.

I gave you my secrets, turned ‘em into weapons,

Now I’m armored up, every lesson is a blessing.

Bridge

I break the mirrors, let the pieces rearrange,

Reflection is full of cracks, but the soul don’t change.

Dancing with the ghosts of the love I lost,

And the friend who cost more than what love cost.

Verse

I was stuck in the dark, couldn't find my way (oh-oh)

Thought our love would last, but you slipped away (yuh)

Left me for another, that's a cold, cold move (skrrt)

Felt like a punch to the gut, couldn't breathe, couldn't prove

My worth, my love, my everything, all dismissed (alright)

Like I was nothing, just a fleeting wish (uh-huh)

But now I'm rising, got someone who believes (yeah)

In my heart, in my soul, they're all I need (come, come to me)

They listen when I speak, they hear my pain (na-na)

Unlike my family, they just turn away (hey, hey)

Don't wanna hear my story, don't wanna know my name (watching, watching)

Think I'm just a failure, think I'll never claim (let me be, be)

My spot in the world, my right to shine (go, go)

But I won't give up, no, I won't give in (wham-bam)

Got my own back, got my own win (da da da)

I'm moving forward, leaving the hate behind (alright)

Got my own crew, got my own grind (yuh, yuh)

They got my back, they know my mind (skrrt, skrrt)

We're unstoppable, untamed, unafraid (yeah, yeah)

We're on the rise, we're on the move (come, come to me)

Leaving the doubters, leaving the pain (oh-oh)

We're making our own way, we're breaking the chain (go, go)

Chorus

I'm on fire, got the flame

I'm on fire, got the flame

I'm on fire, got the flame

I'm on fire, got the flame

Burning up, got the aim

Burning up, got the aim

Burning up, got the aim

Burning up, got the aim

I'm on the rise, got the might

I'm on the rise, got the might

I'm on the rise, got the might

I'm on the rise, got the might

Shining bright, everything's alright

Shining bright, everything's alright

Shining bright, everything's alright

Shining bright, everything's alright

Outro

So here’s a toast to the traitors, masked in caring,

You keep the memories—I’ll keep the daring.

And when the ash settles, I’ll still be standing,

Writing new chapters, no ghostwriting, commanding.
