You tried to hold me down, so I became a soldier
Built up all these walls, and now I'm climbing over
Those nasty bees are tempting me, oh, lord
But I ain't going back
You take me for a fool
that doesn't make me foolish
Told me I was wrong
passion made you ruthless
Manipulate, it's just too late, oh, lord
But I ain't going back no more
You're fueling up the flames
Gonna show you what I'm made of
Breaking every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change, but I grew on ya
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without ya
Make it hard to leave, you think it's all about ya
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire
I tried to get this weight off of my shoulders
Built up all my strength, I'm finally taking over
Complicate, I don't appreciate, oh lord
But I ain't going back no more
You're fueling up the flames
Gonna show you what I'm made of
Breaking every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change, but I grew on ya
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without ya
Make it hard to leave, you think it's all about ya
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
This fire, this fire, this fire
Breaking me, shaking me
shaping me into what I never wanted
Breaking me, shaking me
making my beating heart a little stronger
Stronger, stronger
Breaking every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change, but I grew on ya
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Breaking every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change, but I grew on ya
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without ya
Make it hard to leave, you think it's all about ya
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
This fire, this fire, this fire is keeping me alive
