The fire we became

Through the fire, we remained
Some nights we spoke through silence
Too tired to even bleed
Still carrying shattered pieces
Of everything we used to be

The cold kept pressing harder
The weight refused to fade
But every scar between us
Became the strength we made

We were not born from comfort
We were forged inside the flame
I broke in silence beside you
And the fire is what we became

No storm could tear us open
No darkness took our name
The world kept trying to break us
And the fire is what we became

The rain felt like a warning
Across the hollow ground
But every time we stumbled
We still refused to drown

The wolves were howling somewhere
Beyond the frozen plains
Like ancient voices calling
Through all our fear and pain

The world kept trying to break us
But we survived through the pain
I broke in silence beside you
While thunder rolled like chains
We carried all the sorrow

Like shadows in the rain
But every wound they gave us
Turned into strength again
The elders lived in peace

No one broke us down
Storms came with black winds
We stood alone before
Shadows fell over the earth
Blood and ashes filled the night

Darkness burned bright in the darkness
But the elders never died
We walked through fire and smoke
With our heads in the mountains

Power in our eyes
But the storm kept calling
Elders in the blood
In the soul
We walked through all the darkness

Together through the flames
And every night that broke us
Built the fire we became
No fear remains behind us

No sorrow stays the same
The pain became the weapon
And the fire became our name
The fire remains

We remain
