Lean Into the Fire

Verse 1

I tried to run from the pressure,

Hide from the weight of the climb.

Every doubt kept saying, “Not yet,”

Every fear kept stealing my time.

But the cracks let the light rush in,

Every fall taught me how to win.

I stopped fighting the gravity—

Started trusting what’s pulling me.

Pre-Chorus (build)

Turn the noise down, feel it rise,

What breaks you open redefines.

Drop / Chorus

I lean into the fire—feel it make me strong,

Every scar is a beat in my heart, in my song.

I don’t run from the night, I ignite, I become,

This is where I’m forged—this is where I’m from.

Hands up higher, hear the truth collide,

I’m stepping through the pain to the other side.

I lean into the fire—

I’m becoming who I was created to be.

Verse 2

I’ve been shaped by the long way ‘round,

By the silence and the breaking ground.

What I feared was the edge of me

Was the doorway to my destiny.

I don’t need perfect, I need real,

I need courage when the doubt feels loud and steel.

Every storm just tunes the sound,

I rise when the bass hits the ground.

Pre-Chorus (bigger)

Count it down, let the truth unfold,

Pressure turns the ordinary gold.

Drop / Chorus

I lean into the fire—feel it make me strong,

Every scar is a beat in my heart, in my song.

I don’t run from the night, I ignite, I become,

This is where I’m forged—this is where I’m from.

Hands up higher, feel the ceiling fly,

I’m walking through the pain with my head held high.

I lean into the fire—

I’m becoming who I was created to be.

Bridge (breakdown → rise)

When the lights go low, I hear my name,

In the quiet, I remember the flame.

If the road gets heavy, I don’t slow down,

I wait for the drop—then I turn it around.

Final Drop / Chorus (full send)

I lean into the fire—stronger now,

From the ashes to the crown—hear the crowd, hear the sound!

Every doubt burns off, every chain breaks free,

I’m alive in the fight—this is destiny.

Hands up higher, let the future arrive,

I’m not who I was—I’m the reason I rise.

I lean into the fire—

I’m becoming who I was created to be.

Outro (chant-ready)

Lean in… rise up…

Stronger now…

This is me.
