[Verse 1] I been walking through the same old mess Trying to clean up what I left Every step just pulls me back To the things I still regret I hear voices in my head Say I ain’t done enough But I’m still here standing Even when it’s rough [Pre-Chorus] I ain’t looking for a miracle Just a little light [Chorus] So I hold on to the fire Even when it burns Every scar’s a lesson Every fall’s a turn I been down in the dark Where the truth don’t lie But I’m holding on to the fire Just to stay alive [Verse 2] I seen people come and go Like the tide don’t care Some will leave you empty Some were never there I tried to play it righteous Tried to play it clean But the road gets heavy When you know what it means [Pre-Chorus] I ain’t asking for forgiveness Just another try [Chorus] So I hold on to the fire Even when it burns Every scar’s a lesson Every fall’s a turn [Bridge] (emotional peak) If there’s something out there listening I ain’t got no disguise This is all I got to give No more alibis [Final Chorus] (bigger, gospel feel) Yeah I hold on to the fire Let it light my way Even through the shadows I ain’t gonna fade I been down, I been broken But I’m still standing higher Yeah I’m holding on Holding on to the fire
