[Verse 1] I kept the peace like porcelain, pretending I don’t crack, You kept tapping at the fault lines just to hear them snap. Played innocent while lighting every fuse behind my back, Then flinched like I was monstrous when the sky turned black. You begged me for the truth, funny how fast you got it, You wanted smoke? Cool. Just don’t choke when you spot it. [Pre-Chorus] You swore you meant no harm, But you aimed for every scar, Now you’re shocked I came in armed? Baby, that’s who you are. [Chorus] So forgive the fire, I’m sorry my blaze burned brighter. Sorry that your little lies Struck a match I couldn’t smother in time. Forgive the fire, I swear I tried to stay kinder, But you kept feeding all the sparks you deny, So yeah… I’m sorry I hurt you For hurting me first. My bad. Right? [Post-Chorus Hook] Burn, burn, Everything you touched turned. Learn, learn, Even embers have their turn. You made the flame, babe… I just let it burn. [Verse 2 - Extended Rap Section] You paint me as the villain ‘cause it’s easier to claim, But you rewrote every memory just to keep yourself sane. You kept twisting all my boundaries ‘til they snapped in your hands, Then cried “unfair” the second I refused your demands. You pushed every button like you needed proof I’d break, Treated kindness like a weakness you were eager to take. I swallowed every slight, tried to rise above the ache, But you fed off my restraint like it was something you could shake. So when I finally struck back, you acted stunned by the blow, But you rehearsed this whole disaster long before it could show. You built a throne of contradictions, thought I’d kneel at your feet, But I don’t bow for pyromaniacs who blame me for the heat. And now you cling to innocence like it’s a script you deserve, But you deny the detonations when they’re clearly your words. If you wanted something gentle, you should’ve practiced the same, But you keep praying for a candle while you're doused in gasoline. [Pre-Chorus] You swore you meant no harm, But you live for raising alarms, Now you’re sad I left you scarred? Baby, look where we are. [Chorus] So forgive the fire, I’m sorry my blaze burned brighter. Sorry that your quiet sins Turned the room into a powder-thin grid. Forgive the fire, I swear I tried to stay kinder, But you kept feeding every spark you deny, So yeah… I’m sorry I scorched you For slicing me first. Totally. [Post-Chorus Hook] Burn, burn, Guess you never thought I’d learn. Turn, turn, Now the tables finally turn. You made the flame, babe… I just watched you burn. [Bridge] If you wanted gentle, You should’ve been gentle. If you wanted peace, Stop playing with my mental. You built the pyre, handed me the lighter, Then gasp like hell When the flames climb higher. [Outro] So forgive the fire, Or don’t, whatever fuels your choir. But if you’re searching for who rewrote this fate, Maybe check the mirror before you call me flame. After all… I’m only burning what you set ablaze.
