Some things don't start with you
Some things don't start with you
I watched the rooms grow tense
Before I knew what tension meant
I learned the weather
By the air
I learned which words
Could spark a flame
And which ones
No one dared to name
Patterns move
Without a sound
Passed like smoke
From room to room
Inherited fire
Passed through the wire
Carried in silence
Carried higher
I didn't choose it
But I feel the spark
Inherited fire
Lighting the dark
I saw escape
In different forms
Different storms
In different homes
Different ways
To numb the noise
Different bargains
Different poise
No accusation
No defense
Just recognition
In the present tense
Inherited fire
In the blood
Not a sentence
Not a flood
I can't erase it
I can't deny
But I can choose
What I amplify
It isn't blame
It isn't shame
It's understanding
Of the flame
I am not
A carbon copy
I am not
The ending story
Inherited fire
Still burns bright
But I don't have to
Feed the fight
I carry the spark
But I decide
How it lives
On my side
