Walking Through the Fire
I’ve been tried, tested
They weren’t satisfied
I gave my best til I had nothing left to spare
They said go away son
You ain’t ready to play son
Thought that I was all done
Until I faced my fear
Honed my desire
Now I’m here
And I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
They dealt the cards and so I played the hand
It was hard but please do understand
That I really didn’t care
Cause I knew that I’d return
See I never lost the burn
It was always mine to earn
And so I faced my fear
Honed my desire
Now I’m here
And I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
Was a time when I wanted to walk away
Worn down from grinding it every day
But now I’m back, I’m back and here to stay
I’m ready to walk the wire
Been burned before a time or two
The fire’s hot but you know that’s nothing new
It’s all part of the journey of the few
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
I’m walking through the fire
