[Verse 1] I came from the smoke where the broken men crawl, Where the streets teach you early how to rise or fall. I learned to keep my voice low, my vision high, To stare down the devil without blinking an eye. I’ve walked through the fire with my fists at my side, Never begged for mercy, never swallowed my pride. Every scar on my skin is a story I own — Proof that I built my kingdom stone by stone. [Pre‑Chorus] I don’t fear the dark, I was raised in it. I don’t run from storms, I was made in it. [Chorus] I was built from ashes, carved out of flame, Turned every loss into power, every wound into aim. I don’t bow to kings, I don’t answer to fate — I write my own legend, I decide what I create. I was built from ashes, forged in the fight, A ghost in the alley, a wolf in the night. If the world wants war, then let it begin — I don’t break, I don’t bend, I win. [Verse 2] I’ve seen men crumble when the pressure gets tight, But I learned to stand taller when I’m losing the light. I’ve gambled with danger, shook hands with fear, Made peace with the shadows that follow me here. I don’t trust easily, I don’t speak fast, I move like a man who’s outrun his past. But every step I take is a step I choose — I don’t play games I’m prepared to lose. [Verse 3] I’ve buried my doubts in the cold, hard ground, Turned silence into strategy, pain into sound. I’ve watched empires fall from the weight of their lies, But I built mine steady, brick by brick, rise by rise. I don’t need applause, I don’t need a crown — Respect is earned when you never back down. And if the world wants to test what I’ve become, Tell it I don’t flinch, I don’t freeze, I don’t run. [Verse 4 — New, darker, more ruthless] I’ve stood in the rooms where the weak men shake, Where a single wrong breath is a fatal mistake. I’ve stared into eyes that were hungry for blood, Walked out untouched while their courage turned to mud. I don’t fear the blade, I don’t fear the gun — I fear standing still more than being outrun. If destiny knocks, it better knock twice — I’ve survived too much to be told what’s mine. [Bridge] I’ve walked alone through the nights that break men, Stared at the edge and stepped forward again. If destiny calls, it can wait in line — I move on my terms, I decide the time. [Chorus — Final] I was built from ashes, carved out of flame… (Repeat chorus, bigger, darker, triumphant.) [Outro] I don’t fear the fire — I am the fire.
