Stand for something, or become nothing
Ignite a fire inside and bring yourself to life
Burn. Find the spark that sets your soul alight
Nurture the ember that will begin the blaze
Let it illuminate and let your heart lead the way
And if anyone wants to hate, just allow it to fan your flame
People will use and abuse you and throw you to the side
Just remember to use it as fuel to break and ignite
They only want to see you fall
They only want to see you fail
But only you are who makes you, you
And you can prevail
Over and over again in my head
I replayed the words that they said
Seeking a means for it all to end
Because I let their doubt drag me to disillusionment
And even when these thoughts come back and won't go away
I know I still have it in me, to face the next damn day
Because I know that there is something to be gained
By beginning to make sense of all this pain
Burn. Find the spark that sets your soul alight
Nurture the ember that will begin the blaze
Let it illuminate and let your heart lead the way
And if anyone wants to hate, just allow it to fan your flame
Don't leave your ambitions to extinguish to ashes
Just ignore those who naysay and continue on your way
Like a plume of smoke, they will fade
They will fade
