[Intro – Spoken softly, building tension]
Yeah…
You ever feel like you made it through hell,
but it still drags you back?
Yeah, me too.
[Verse 1 – Rapid flow, intense]
I said I was better, I lied through my teeth
Smilin’ wide while I crumble beneath
World say “strong,” but they ain’t in my skin
Don’t see the war that I’m battlin’ in
Wakin’ up tense, mind like a minefield
Heart got armor, but none of it healed
Run with the flame, scars in my chest
Fightin’ to breathe with this weight on my breath
Therapy talks, yeah, I scribble and spit
But pain got a voice that won’t ever quit
I’ve evolved, yeah, sure, but don’t get it twisted
I still got nights where I barely existed
Bipolar tide, one minute I rise
Next I’m in tears just starin’ at skies
They say “you survived,” but I’m still in the war
Still kickin’ down demons behind that door
[Hook – Punchy, rhythmic bounce]
Still in the fire, still in the smoke
Runnin’ on fumes, but I never broke
Fell to my knees, got back with a scream
Pain in my blood, but I bleed for the dream
Burnt at the edges, soul on wire
Still throwin’ punches, still spittin’ fire
I’m not done, no, I’m not a liar
I’m not past the storm, I’m still in the fire.
[Verse 2 – Machine gun flow, gritty]
I don't need crowns, I don’t need praise
Just give me truth in the darkest of days
Talk is cheap when the nights get loud
And you’re chokin’ on fears you don’t say out loud
Yeah, I broke, but I built from the pieces
Pain made art, now the rhythm releases
Can’t fake peace when the war’s still breathin’
So I rhyme like a weapon to stop the bleedin’
Mask on face, but my soul’s on stage
In the booth with the ghosts I cage
Not about fame, not about clout
It’s about yellin’ when the hope runs out
I’m that storm you thought was gone
But I came back fierce with a battle song
[Hook – Faster, even harder]
Still in the fire, still in the smoke
Heart still heavy, but I won’t choke
Tears in the ink, rage in the rhyme
Bleedin’ through bars like I’m runnin’ outta time
Eyes on the pain, feet in the flame
Still got grit, still takin’ aim
I’m not done, no, I’m not a liar
I’m not past the war, I’m still in the fire.
[Bridge – Slowed just a little, emotional switch-up]
If you feel this, you ain’t alone
We all got battles we fight on our own
You ain’t weak for feelin’ that weight
You’re strong for stayin, for choosing to stay
[Final Hook – Double-time outro]
Still in the fire, still on the rise
Burnin’ alive, but I never die
Twistin’ the pain into rhythm and breath
Still talkin’ back to the voice of death
Can’t stop now, can’t mute my flame
Still in the dark, but I carved my name
You want truth? I’ll take you higher
Not past the scars I’m still in the fire.
