[Verse 1]
Blood in my shoes from the miles I ran
Every scar on my skin, that was part of the plan
Took the blade to my doubt, carved a path through the dark
Turned my panic into pressure, now it’s diamonds and sparks
All the nights on the floor, breathing shallow and quick
Every friend turned a ghost, every promise a trick
I was drowning in the anger, heavy weight on my chest
Now I bench press the burden just to give it a flex (yeah)
[Chorus]
I grew teeth in the fire
Learned to love every burn, every ache, every wire
If it breaks me, it makes me
Cut deep, I get sharper, never shaking
I grew teeth in the fire
Every wound that you gave fed the flames, took me higher
If it kills me, it builds me
Push pain to the edge till it kneels, till it yields me
[Verse 2]
Used to pray for a shortcut, got a lesson instead
Had to stitch my own soul, pulled the thread from my head
Took the “why me?” tears, made war paint lines
Now my heartbeat hits hard like a fault line grind
I was chained to the fear, now I wear it as steel
All that rust on my faith turned to chrome on the grill
You can hear where I’ve been in the crack of my voice
This is scars over gold, this is fate by choice (hey!)
[Bridge]
Bring the weight
Let it crush my chest till the bones vibrate
Bring the hate
I’ll distill that venom into something great
All this rage in my veins, that’s my jet fuel
Turn the hurt into heat, make the hurt rule
[Chorus]
I grew teeth in the fire
Learned to love every burn, every ache, every wire
If it breaks me, it makes me
Cut deep, I get sharper, never shaking
I grew teeth in the fire
Every wound that you gave fed the flames, took me higher
If it kills me, it builds me
Push pain to the edge till it kneels, till it yields me
