Let It Burn (Pop Rock Version)

They said, "Slow down"

I said, "Watch me"

I came up quiet, built loud

Heart full of scars, head in the clouds

They didn't hear me when I was low

Now every step shakes the road

Pressure on my chest like a countdown clock

Whole damn world telling me to stop

I didn't break, I didn't fold

I just learned how to burn real slow

If this all falls apart tonight

I'll still be standing in the firelight

Let it burn, let it cave, let it fall on me

I've been carrying weight since 17, if the sky comes down

I won't run now, I'll hold my ground while it's crashing around

Let it burn, let it break, let it try to end

I don't lose sleep over how they see me then

If the world drops dead at my feet tonight, I'll still rise

I've been alone in a crowded room

Smiles fake, love on mute

They want the shine, but not the pain

Not the nights where you go insane

I learned the game, I learned the cost

Learned how much I could afford to lose

Now I move like I've got nothing left

Come, that's the truth, that's the truth, you don't scare me with the end

I've been there and back again

Let it burn, let it cave, let it fall on me

I've been walking through hell on my own two feet, if the ground gives out

I won't look down, I'll step through the smoke while it's breaking all around

Let it burn, let it break, let it try to end

I don't lose sleep over-, I don't beg forgiveness, I don't pretend

If the world drops dead at my feet tonight, I'll still rise

I don't need saving, I don't need signs

I've made it this far on borrowed time

They built their walls, I built my spine

Now watch me stand while the whole thing dies

This ain't luck

This is survival

Let it burn, let it fall, let it lose control

I've been forged in the dark, that's how I glow

If tomorrow's gone and today's my last

I'll leave my mark in the shattered glass
