[Verse 1]
Woke up with a furnace
Where my quiet heart should be
Every headline
Every siren
Pours more gasoline in me
Names I’ll never get to know
Faces buried in the dust
But their stories echo loud
Rattling inside my blood
[Chorus]
I got a dragon heart beating in my chest
Breathing fire for the ones who never got to rest
For every child
Every voice they tried to silence
I will turn this burning into defiance
This dragon heart
Won’t cool down
Won’t calm down
Till justice finds the innocent
[Verse 2]
I see playgrounds turned to craters
Tiny shoes in shattered glass
Mothers holding folded photos
Of a future cut in half
They call terror “order”
They call hunger “keeping peace”
But I feel tremors in my ribs
Every time another flees
[Chorus]
I got a dragon heart beating in my chest
Breathing fire for the ones who never got to rest
For every child
Every voice they tried to silence
I will turn this burning into defiance
This dragon heart
Won’t cool down
Won’t calm down
Till justice finds the innocent
[Bridge]
If I ever start to tire
Let their names become my choir (oh)
Every whisper
Every prayer
Stoking up this inner flare
I won’t look away again
I won’t numb this aching skin
Let my courage be the spark
They can see through all this dark
[Chorus]
I got a dragon heart beating in my chest
Breathing fire for the ones who never got to rest
For every child
Every voice they tried to silence
I will turn this burning into defiance
This dragon heart
Beat louder
Burn brighter
Till justice holds the innocent
