You try to hold me down so I became a soldier
Built to throw this walls and now I'm climbing over
Those nasty piece are tempting me
Oh Lord! but ain't going back

You take me for a fool (fool), that doesn't make me foolish
Told me I was wrong (wrong), passion makes you ruthless
Manipulate, is just too late
Oh lord! but I ain't going back no more
The fueling of the flames only show you what I'm made of.

Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)
Is keeping me alive.
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think is all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)

I tried to get this weight over my shoulder
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
The fueling of the flames only show you what I'm made of

Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)
Is keeping me alive.
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think is all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)

They breakin' me, shakin' me, shapin' me
Into what I never wanted
And breakin' me, shakin' me
Makin' my beatin' heart a little stronger
(Stronger)
(Stronger)

Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
I would never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive.

Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive.
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think is all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire (this fire)
Is keeping me alive
