Sound the Spark

Steel in my spine, I was born from the break

No crown on my head but I still made ‘em quake

Every scar’s a spark, every tear’s a drum

I don’t run from the fire—I become

Lights down low, but my heart won’t dim

Turn the silence into a war hymn

This is what a heartbeat sounds like

When it’s louder than fear

Every step, a war cry

Every breath, crystal clear

Strike the match, let it rise

I was never meant to hide

So sound the spark—

I’m coming alive

Fell through the shadows, hands bruised with doubt

But I turned every fall into something to shout

Mirror cracked, but I liked the view

‘Cause it showed me the storm—and I am too

Say I’m soft, but I hit like truth

Built this rage into living proof

This is what a heartbeat sounds like

When it’s louder than fear

Every step, a war cry

Every breath, crystal clear

Strike the match, let it rise

I was never meant to hide

So sound the spark—

I’m coming alive

I was quiet

Now I’m thunder

I was shattered

Now I’m wonder

This is what a heartbeat sounds like

When you’ve died and still dare

To sing with the ash

To burn like you care

Strike the match, let it rise

This fire’s how I survive

So sound the spark—

I’m more than alive

(So sound the spark…)

Boom, boom—ignite the dark

I am the spark
