[Verse 1] I’ve been swallowing the weight of every word you said Every time you counted me out and left me for dead I kept the kindling close, I stored the fuel Every doubt you handed me, I turned it into proof
[Pre-Chorus] Done with quiet, done with careful Done apologizing for taking up space Strike the match
[Chorus] I’m the firestarter Burned the dead weight to the ground I’m the firestarter They tried to silence me - now hear the sound Call me the catalyst, call me the spark I was never the wreckage - I was the arc I’m the firestarter
[Verse 2] Every wall they built I used it as a step Every “you’re not ready” just sharpened up my edge They said the odds were stacked, play it safe, lay low I said watch me turn this into something you don’t know
[Pre-Chorus] Done with quiet, done with careful…
[Chorus] I’m the firestarter Burned the dead weight to the ground I’m the firestarter They tried to silence me - now hear the sound Call me the catalyst, call me the spark I was never the wreckage - I was the arc I’m the firestarter
[Bridge] I wasn’t waiting for permission I was never broken - I was primed I was always the ignition Every setback, every time Not their ruin, not their warning I’m the opening line
[**Explosive Drum solo][**Explosive Drum solo]
[Chorus] I’m the firestarter Burned the dead weight to the ground I’m the firestarter They tried to silence me - now hear the sound Call me the catalyst, call me the spark I was never the wreckage - I was the arc I’m the firestarter
[Final Chorus - full band] (same as chorus, bigger) I’m the firestarter Burned the dead weight to the ground I’m the firestarter They tried to silence me - now hear the sound Call me the catalyst, call me the spark I was never the wreckage - I was the arc I’m the firestarter
I’m the firestarter I’m the firestarter I’m the firestarter I’m the firestarter
