Your laugh carves through the haze
Like sunlight in a frozen frame
I walked the road of fire and blades
Traced the letters of your name

Through storms that raged and skies that bled
Every fight every word unsaid

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

A fleeting glance the spark remains
In the shadows your light sustains

You held me close when the dark would call
Fingers traced where my fears would crawl
Every stumble was a climb to fall
Every smile was the reason for it all
(the reason for it all)

We bent but never broke in two
Each wound healed stronger thanks to you

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

Through the ashes through the fire
You’re the spark my sole desire

The fight may end the road may turn
But for your love my heart will burn

Don't know when it'll fall away
Lighting up just to light the way
Another town on an endless road
And if I go

I hope you will forgive me
Mama
I hope you found your peace
In the place of your taming
Baby
I hope you think of me

The lighter click and the bottle top
The colored sky is now charcoal fog
And somehow
I'm still a child
With the wildfire

I hope you will forgive me
Mama
I hope you found your peace
In the place of your taming
Baby
I hope you think of me

Against all odds
Still stand tall
Tripped and fell
I made a call
And I got back up
Though I'm seasick and half-forsaken
Got one good hand for the other breakin'
And at times
Too much
But
Baby
I'm fallin'

In your arms
I could feel my fate
But the swaying never goes away
And now the girl sits on goat hill
She's mine now still

She's a faded memory now
Faded like the sunset in the west
She's a faded memory now
I know there ain't no way that I'll forget

The road comes in and the road goes out
I'm driving this truck all alone again
Just letting time slip away
Feel the weight of the highway in every step

She's a faded memory now
Faded like the sunset in the west
She's a faded memory now
I know there ain't no way that I'll forget

There ain't nothing darker than the night away from her
But there ain't no sound louder than the silence in this town
I don't know a weaker man than the one that I became
But I know what I've been going through now

This ain't no way
Heaven ain't got no say
And they raise the rent in hell from week to week
Out here
Time stands still
All we have is what we need and
All we are is under our feet

The road comes in and the road goes out
I'm driving this truck all alone again
Just letting time slip away
Feel the weight of the highway in every step

They say it’s a man’s world built by their hands
Oh darling let’s clap for all their master plans
Concrete and steel oh how they reign
But I run the city I don’t need your name

Tell me again how you saved the day
While I balance the world on heels and a gaze
I’ll laugh in your face while I write the rules
Funny how kings forget they’re just fools

This is a man's world? Oh please don’t trip
I’m the one who’s got the power in my fingertips
You think you’re the fire but I’m the flame
You play the game baby but I own the frame
This is a man's world? How cute that lie
I’m running the show while you’re asking why
So raise your glass but don’t forget who’s queen
In this so-called kingdom I’m the real machine

You built those towers brick by brick
But I’m the storm that makes 'em click
You write the stories oh how sweet
But honey I’m the one you can’t defeat

Tell me again how you paved the way
While I’m out here turning night into day
I smile while you boast it’s a show at best
But remember who’s wearing the bulletproof vest

This is a man's world? (Oh please don’t trip)
I’m the one who’s got the power in my fingertips
You think you’re the fire (but I’m the flame)
You play the game baby (but I own the frame)
This is a man's world? (How cute that lie)
I’m running the show (while you’re asking why)
So raise your glass (but don’t forget who’s queen)
In this so-called kingdom (I’m the real machine)

You can talk your talk but who runs this place?
With a wink and a smirk I win the race
You build your walls I walk through doors
While you’re playing chess I’m flying over the board

This is a man's world? (Oh please don’t trip)
I’m the one who’s got the power in my fingertips
You think you’re the fire (but I’m the flame)
You play the game baby (but I own the frame)
This is a man's world? (How cute that lie)
I’m running the show (while you’re asking why)
So raise your glass (but don’t forget who’s queen)
In this so-called kingdom (I’m the real machine)

So go ahead call it your world if you dare
But don’t be surprised when you’re gasping for air

(na-na-na alright)
(lemme tell you somethin’ real)

I used to count Haribos in a paper lunch sack
Yellow ones meant joy red meant I fought back
Candy in rows lined like chess
Chewin' away pain I couldn't express

No gold chains just cola rings
Mom said “don’t eat too many” I did everything
I didn’t know silence could weigh this much
So I filled it with sugar and gummy touch

The world moved I stayed ten
Thought bears could keep me from breakin’ again
Now all I got's one melted pack
Time did laps — it never came back

Don’t you think it’s funny what a bear can do?
Held my whole world in a pouch of glue
They say “grow up” like I meant to
I just miss the days with my Haribo crew

Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

Past life sugar remedy
Soft shell sweet identity
Gold bear red memory
Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

[scratch]

Now I see shelves full of candy I don’t touch
Got bills now bears don’t mean much
But I still keep one sealed in a drawer
Like a love letter nobody reads anymore

Talk tough but I’m cracked inside
Wishin’ for lemon bears and a playground slide
Y’all flex gold I flex nostalgia
You got drip — I got flashbacks louder

Every rapper spit pain yeah that’s the trend
But my truth starts with sugar and a plastic end
Ain’t no trap no steel no bag of blues
Just a bear-shaped god that got me through

Don’t you think it’s funny what a bear can do?
Held my whole world in a pouch of glue
They say “grow up” like I meant to
I just miss the days with my Haribo crew

Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Do-do-do-do-do mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

Verse 1:
Caught in the flames can't douse this desire
Burning bright with a relentless fire
But you're oblivious to my yearning heart's plea
I'm aching I'm burning can't you see?

Pre-Chorus:
I willingly placed myself in this fray
Accepting the price I must pay
Yet you carry on unaware of the blaze
While inside I'm consumed in this craze

Chorus:
Ignited by a love that won't fade
I'm ablaze I'm burning can't evade
For your love I'm engulfed in this pyre
In the depths of this inferno I aspire

Verse 2:
Your closed doors only fuel my need
To break through to make you concede
Day and night I plead for your affection
But you remain unmoved no sign of reflection

Pre-Chorus:
I'd do anything to sway your mind
But you're elusive so unkind
I'm not blind to the truth it's clear
You're hesitant yet I'm still here

Chorus:
Ignited by a love that won't fade
I'm ablaze I'm burning can't evade
For your love I'm engulfed in this pyre
In the depths of this inferno I aspire

Bridge:
Would you watch me fall to my knees?
Or bend over backward just to appease?
Unlike the rest I'd go to extremes
No shame no regret just endless dreams

Chorus:
Ignited by a love that won't fade
I'm ablaze I'm burning can't evade
For your love I'm engulfed in this pyre
In the depths of this inferno I aspire

Outro:
Burning up can't quench this heat
Burning up in your love I'm complete
Burning up in this fervent embrace
Burning up for your love I'll never erase

Lost in dreams
Life's a canvas
Colors bleed
Hope and chance

We rise we fall
Find our way

Dreams and hopes we hold tight
In the night they ignite
Shadows dance hearts unite
Dreams and hopes our guiding light

Feel the beat in our soul
Rhythms flow take control

Silent roads
Paths unfold
Chasing dawn
Stories told

We rise we fall
Find our way

Dreams and hopes we hold tight
In the night they ignite
Shadows dance hearts unite
Dreams and hopes our guiding light

Rise and shine
Chase the light

Dreams and hopes we hold tight
In the night they ignite
Shadows dance hearts unite
Dreams and hopes our guiding light

We fly
We dream

[Intro]
Why do stars fade when it’s time to shine?
Yeah!

Just checked the mirror turns out I’m 100% that queen
Even when I’m down feeling blue
Yeah I deal with drama that’s the human in me
Snap snap then I rise above that’s the power in me
You could've been with a real catch non-restrictive
Support your dreams just a bit
You were supposed to lift me up but you’re letting me down
And that’s the sound of me walking away

Why do stars fade when it’s time to shine? (Time to shine)
Don’t call me say it straight to my face (Straight to my face)
Best friend caught me up in the coffee shop (Up in the coffee shop)
Steam blows sweep you right out of my thoughts
Fresh start with that killer vibe (With that killer vibe)
New love not the playing type (Not the playing type)
Reality checks needed a thrill in my life (Yee)
Da da di da di da doo dah day (Ah yeah yeah yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

You thought you could crush my soul?
Oh that’s really cold
That you believed you ever owned it
Nope never part of your plot
Hey I’m happy you’re gone back to your mess
I mean who would want to hide their glow?
I will never ever ever ever ever play second
I turn the art in artist
Not fretting 'bout a label ever clever
So you can tell your pal "Make your move" when you spot him
It’s alright he’s already liked my pics

Why do stars fade when it’s time to shine? (Time to shine)
Don’t call me say it straight to my face (Straight to my face)
Best friend caught me up in the coffee shop (Up in the coffee shop)
Steam blows sweep you right out of my thoughts
Fresh start with that killer vibe (With that killer vibe)
New love not the playing type (Not the playing type)
Reality checks needed a thrill in my life (Yee)
Da da di da di da doo dah day (Ah yeah yeah yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

I wake to the hum of a restless moon
Curtains swaying like ghosts in the room
The walls are painted with shadows that creep
Whispering truths that I’d rather not keep

The clock’s stuck ticking in a crooked rhyme
And the air feels heavy thick with time
I try to shake the echoes but they pull me in
A carousel of faces where the dark begins

Bad dreams they’re crawling through my mind (oh no oh no)
Stealing the stillness I can’t seem to find (yeah yeah)
Bad dreams they’re tangled in my head (can’t escape it now)
Chasing the silence but it’s gone instead (it’s gone it’s gone)

Steps in the hallway but the floorboards don’t creak
A distant murmur but no one speaks
The mirror’s reflection isn’t quite my own
A fractured version I’ve never known

I turn the light on but it cuts too thin
The shadows grow deeper they’re pulling me in
I try to find the exit but the walls just bend
A labyrinth of longing with no end

Bad dreams they’re crawling through my mind (can’t get out can’t get out)
Stealing the stillness I can’t seem to find (oh I’m losing it now)
Bad dreams they’re tangled in my head (no way out no way out)
Chasing the silence but it’s gone instead (it’s gone it’s gone)

Lost in the haze where the night unfolds
Every corner hides a story untold
Fingers reach but they slip like smoke
And the weight of the dark wraps around my throat

If I could wake up would the room stay still?
Would the morning sun break this bitter chill?
But the curtains fall in the same slow dance
Caught in a fever I can’t outlast

Bad dreams they’re crawling through my mind (oh don’t let me go)
Stealing the stillness I can’t seem to find (somebody help me now)
Bad dreams they’re tangled in my head (no way out no way out)
Chasing the silence but it’s gone instead (it’s gone it’s gone)

Lost in time we drift apart
Broken hearts brand new start
Found my way back to you
Love returns pure and true

Journey long trials through
Love remains all for you

Back to you my love (love love)
Found again my dove (dove dove)
Back to you we mend (mend mend)
New beginning no end (end end)

Years may pass feelings stay
Memories light our way
Here we stand hand in hand
Together strong we stand

Journey long trials through
Love remains all for you

Back to you my love (love love)
Found again my dove (dove dove)
Back to you we mend (mend mend)
New beginning no end (end end)

Through the storm we find peace
In your arms sweet release

Back to you my love (love love)
Found again my dove (dove dove)
Back to you we mend (mend mend)
New beginning no end (end end)

Back to you once more (more more)

Saw you walk in like a scene from a dream
Adriana Lima vibes you know what I mean
Hair flowing like a river caught in the breeze
Every step you took the temperature increased

The room got hotter you set the place on fire
Everyone around was feeling the desire
You passed by and I lost my cool
Now I'm acting like a lovesick fool

Girl you lit up the night like a firework show (Oh yeah!)
Ever since that moment I just gotta know (Gotta know yeah!)
How you got that glow that makes the whole world slow (Slow motion!)
You're the spark I've been waiting for don't you know? (Oh baby!)

The way you move it's like a dance floor blaze
Got everyone around you caught in a daze
I'm tripping over words trying to find my line
'Cause girl you're hotter than a summer time

The room got hotter you set the place on fire
Everyone around was feeling the desire
You passed by and I lost my cool
Now I'm acting like a lovesick fool

Girl you lit up the night like a firework show (Oh yeah!)
Ever since that moment I just gotta know (Gotta know yeah!)
How you got that glow that makes the whole world slow (Slow motion!)
You're the spark I've been waiting for don't you know? (Oh baby!)

Caught in the heat can't take my eyes off you (Can't look away)
Every little thing you do is making me swoon (Oh swoon!)
Just wanna be close maybe take you for a ride
But for now I'll just enjoy the view from the side

Girl you lit up the night like a firework show (Oh yeah!)
Ever since that moment I just gotta know (Gotta know yeah!)
How you got that glow that makes the whole world slow (Slow motion!)
You're the spark I've been waiting for don't you know? (Oh baby!)

Everywhere you go you're setting hearts alight (Hearts on fire)
From the moment that I saw you knew it felt so right (So right!)
Girl you lit up the night like a firework show (Like a firework!)
Ever since that moment I just gotta know (Gotta know yeah!)
