Fire & Gold

[Verse 1] They handed me a map they never followed A "sit down, stay small" I refused to swallow Cracked knuckles on a door they kept locked tight Turns out the hinges break when I decide [Pre-Chorus] I've been counting every "no" like coins Melting all that doubt down to a spark [Chorus] I'm fire and gold, watch me rise Nothing left to burn but the lies I built this crown out of everything you threw Fire and gold, gold, gold I owe the flames to you [Verse 2] Old friends still whisper what I couldn't be Their echoes just the wind behind me I traded shaking hands for solid stone Every scar a step up to the throne [Pre-Chorus] I've been forging armor out of noise Turning every closed fist to a torch [Chorus] I'm fire and gold, watch me rise Nothing left to burn but the lies I built this crown out of everything you threw Fire and gold, gold, gold I owe the flames to you [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, gold in my bones Oh-oh, I'm never alone Oh-oh, gold in my bones [Bridge] [soft] Funny how the ones who called me weak Handed me the match without a word [build-up] Now the room I begged to enter Bows down when I finally get heard [Chorus] [belted] I'm fire and gold, watch me rise Nothing left to burn but the lies I built this crown out of everything you threw Fire and gold, gold, gold I owe the flames to you [Outro] Oh-oh, gold in my bones Oh-oh, I'm never alone Say it back — I'm fire and gold
