Soft fire rage

(Verse 1 – melodic anger, coded)

Yeah, I keep lightin’ up the sky for someone who stay cloudy,
Talkin’ to a shadow but the silence getin’ louder.
Tryna be the spark while they scrollin’ through illusions,
Actin’ like I matter but it feel like an illusion.

Laughin’ with a ghost ‘cause the room go cold,
Every time I open up, I’m left on hold.
Been fixin’ broken pieces that ain’t even mine,
Drownin’ in the waves while they ride the tide.

(Pre-Hook – heated emotion)

Why I gotta beg for a look my way?
Why I gotta burn just to light they day?
Why every time I give, I fade?
Guess I’m just smoke floatin’ out the frame…

(Hook – melodic + angry)

I’m a soft fire ragin’,
Burnin’ up inside while they changin’.
I talk, but I’m lost in translation,
Standin’ right here in the same location.
Every time I rise, they pass me by,
Chasin’ every face that flash online.
I’m done tryna shine for the blind…
Done wastin’ my flame on a lie.

(Verse 2 – deeper pain, hidden meaning)

Been the quiet storm they run to in the nighttime,
But I never get a piece of they sunrise.
Hands reach out like they needed somethin’,
Then vanish like the wind when the heart start drummin’.

They touch my soul like a place to crash,
But never stay long when the sparks turn ash.
Talkin’ with a sweetness that taste like sand,
Sayin’ pretty words with a borrowed hand.

I gave my gold to pockets full of dust,
Opened up my heart just to watch it rust.
Kept buildin’ bridges to a lonely shore,
Tryna be the cure to what ain’t even sore.

(Pre-Hook – angrier, hurt)

Tired of bein’ warmth for a world so cold,
Tired of stories where my part goes untold.
Tired of holdin’ on to empty air,
Tired of pretendin’ anybody care…

(Hook – melodic + furious emotion)

I’m a soft fire ragin’,
Burnin’ up inside while they changin’.
I talk, but I’m lost in translation,
Standin’ right here in the same location.
Every time I rise, they pass me by,
Chasin’ every face that flash online.
I’m done tryna shine for the blind…
Done wastin’ my flame on a lie.

(Bridge – sing/rap, poetic)

Maybe I glow too bright for the wrong ones’ eyes,
Maybe they fear what’s real inside.
Maybe I loved in a world that lie…
Maybe I’m tired of tryin’, tired of tryin’.

(Outro – soft but angry)

Still a soft fire ragin’, never goin’ out,
Still a quiet voice screamin’ in the loud.
If they never see me, I still won’t fall…
I’ll save my flame for someone who feel it all.
