Rock Soul V2

Verse 1

I’ve been standing in the shadows too long

Making myself small to survive

Every scar I carry on my skin

Taught me how to stay alive

I heard the whispers, felt the doubt

Fell hard but I still stood tall

Now I’m done with asking for permission

I was born to rise, not crawl

Pre-Chorus

Hear my heartbeat like a drum

Rolling thunder in my chest

Everything that tried to break me

Only put my soul to the test

Chorus

There’s a fire inside me

Burning wild and bright

I stand tall in the storm

I won’t fade into the night

I’m free, I’m strong

I walk my own road home

There’s a fire inside me

And I’m finally in control

Verse 2

They said I was too loud, too bold

Too much woman, too real

But I dance through the danger

And I say exactly what I feel

I don’t need no crown of gold

No empty promises to stay

My truth is written in my heartbeat

And it lights my way

Pre-Chorus

Every step forward leaves a mark

But I know where I belong

I’ve been down, I’ve been broken

Still my spirit’s standing strong

Chorus

There’s a fire inside me

Burning wild and bright

I stand tall in the storm

I won’t fade into the night

I’m free, I’m strong

I walk my own road home

There’s a fire inside me

And I’m finally in control

Bridge (emotional, powerful build)

I loved too hard, I lost my way

I fell apart, then found my name

From the ashes, I rise again

I won’t be afraid of the flame

Final Chorus (big & explosive)

There’s a fire inside me

Can you feel it when I scream?

No more fear, no more silence

I’m living out my dream

I’m free, I’m strong

Now I know where I belong

There’s a fire inside me

And I’m just getting started
