Lyrics: Build Me with Your Fire

[Guitar Intro Hook]

[Verse 1]
You never twist my words, you let them fly,
Even when I stumble, you don’t ask why.
You see the wreck and still draw near,
You don’t run from the heat — you hold me here.

You said, “Dream loud, I’ll clear the way,”
Built a stage where I could play.
No crown, no map, no master plan,
Just your hand saying, “I understand.”

[Pre-Chorus]
And you don’t clip my wings when I start to soar,
You say, “Take more sky — there’s always more.”

[Chorus]
Build me with your fire,
Don’t tame the blaze, just burn higher.
You love like thunder wrapped in grace,
No masks, no games, no endless chase.
Build me with your fire,
And I’ll be your spark, your live wire.

[Verse 2]
You don’t rewrite my past with shame,
You trace my scars and still call my name.
You laugh at midnight when the cold sets in,
Never ask me to fold or to fit a skin.

You dance with chaos, but your soul is still,
You see my fury and call it will.
You’ve known the dark, but you choose the light,
You kiss me soft, then stand and fight.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t need me small to feel secure,
You rise with me — and we endure.

[Chorus]
Build me with your fire,
Don’t tame the blaze, just burn higher.
You love like thunder wrapped in grace,
No masks, no games, no endless chase.
Build me with your fire,
And I’ll be your spark, your live wire.

[Bridge]
If I ever fall, don’t pull me in,
Just stand beside where the wild begins.
You never needed to hold control,
You held my hand and gave me soul.

[Final Chorus – big and soaring]
Build me with your fire,
Fuel my storm with no desire
To dim the light or fake the fight,
We burn together through the night.
Build me with your fire,
No leash, no lie — just love entire.
