“Show Me the Fire” lyrics
If you got fire
Let me see it
One a.m., still in my work shoes
Double shift and a cold cup of news
Badge in my pocket, hair coming down
First time all week that I'm not holding the town
Nobody here knows the names I saved
Nobody here knows the calls I made
Bass in the floor like a hand on my back
I don't need a drink, I just need the track
If you got love, let me feel it
If you got pain, release it
Three, two, one
If you got fire (show me)
Let me see it
Show me the fire
Let me see it
Fire, fire (let me see it)
Fire, fire (let me see it)
Show me the fire
Show me the fire
DJ looks up from the booth like he knows
Drops the organ where the bassline goes
Somebody's auntie grabbing my hand
Somebody's cousin who don't understand
Work shoes squeaking on the concrete floor
Forty strangers shouting "One more"
I was a shadow when I walked through the door
Now I'm the one they're making room for
If you got fire (show me)
Let me see it
Show me the fire
Let me see it
Clap if you worked today
Clap if you stayed
Clap if you worked today
Clap if you stayed
Scrubs balled up at the bottom of my bag
Tomorrow's shift on a paper tag
But right now the lights are low and gold
And my feet remember what my heart can't hold
I got fire (show me)
Now you see it
Show me the fire
Let me see it
Fire, fire
Show me the fire
Let me see it
Fire, fire
Can you see it?
