Burning on the Mic

[band tuning

Crowd murmur]

(yeah)

Check

One

Two

Sweat on my hands

Wire in my teeth

Set list shaking

Stuffed in my sleeve

Your faces blur

Right past the glare

My heart jumps first

I follow it there

I’m burning on the mic tonight

If I fall

I fall in light

If my voice cracks

Let it crack loud

I came here

To wake this crowd

I’m burning on the mic tonight

Nothing in my chest but fire

If I shake

I’ll shake in time

With every shout

From your side of the line

Boot on the cable

Almost pulls free

Laugh in the feedback

You’re laughing with me

Names on my arm

Written in ink

All of the chances

I never will shrink

I’m burning on the mic tonight

If I fall

I fall in light

If my voice cracks

Let it crack loud

I came here

To wake this crowd

I’m burning on the mic tonight

Nothing in my chest but fire

If I shake

I’ll shake in time

With every shout

From your side of the line

Who was I

Before this room

Before this heat

Before this bloom

Take my doubt

Tear it in two

Leave the quiet

I’ll stay with you (oh)

I’m burning on the mic tonight

If I fall

I fall in light

If my voice cracks

Let it crack loud

I came here

To wake this crowd

I’m burning on the mic tonight

Every scar and every try

If I break

I’ll break in song

I’m burning now

Come sing along (hey!)
