Verse 1 – First Flame
Fifteen.
Lipstick rebellion.
We owned the night like it was rented.
Rhinos and spears mint, sextacy.
Vegas heat.
Bass drops, no sleep.
Ten years of gasoline.
I gave you something no one else did
he’s 18, and we still speak.
But sometimes
I still miss the smoke.
Hook
Every man was a match.
I was the strike.
Some burned slow.
Some burned my whole life.
I don’t erase.
I don’t pretend.
I am built
From where I’ve been.
Verse 2 – Blue Eyes
take my breath.
Blue like mercy.
You’re the man I’m supposed to choose.
Clean lines.
Steady hands.
But I don’t live steady.
We never land—
Just circle.
Crash.
Retry.
When I need light,
I still call you.
Hook
Every almost.
Every sin.
Every time
We dove back in.
You live under my skin.
Verse 3 – The Wrong One
Never mine.
Still mine.
Bonfires.
Warm psychedelic air.
Fishing lines in the dark.
No future talk.
No weight.
Just pulse.
We were never meant to be anything—
So we became everything
We could survive.
Verse 4 – Karma
You were fire with teeth.
Motor oil.
Welding sparks.
Hands that shook my world open.
Love like a locked room.
No exits.
You left in chains.
I left in pieces.
Wrong lifetime.
Right intensity.
Sometimes I still hear
you say pigs fly
Bridge
I’ve loved danger.
I’ve loved safety.
I’ve loved what I shouldn’t touch.
Each one carved something into me—
Steel.
Softness.
Hunger.
Verse 5 – Fate
Twelve years old.
I said, “That’s him.”
Years of chasing.
Running.
Returning.
Father of my daughter.
Tennessee sky.
Second start.
You know my darkness.
You stay anyway.
You’re the one I rest in.
Final Hook (Stripped + Strong)
I don’t regret the heat.
I don’t deny the scars.
Every man left a fingerprint
On this heart of ours.
I am not one story.
I am all of them.
Still burning.
Still carrying.
Still built
From fire.
