[Building from folk elements into heavier territory] [Verse 1 - The anger emerging] Been swallowing my rage for years Said good people don't get this mad But I'm tired of pretending I'm peaceful When peaceful never got me what I had They said "forgive and you'll be free" But forgiveness feels like giving up Maybe righteous anger is a prayer Maybe fury's just love fed up [Pre-Chorus - Permission to feel] What if anger's not the enemy? What if it's fuel I've been afraid to burn? What if all this fire in my chest Is exactly what I need to learn? [Chorus - Breakthrough moment] Fire works, repair through rage Breaking down what shouldn't stay Fire works, sacred anger Burning bridges that led me astray Not destruction just to destroy But clearing ground for something new Fire works, holy fire Maybe mad is how I heal too [Verse 2 - Specific applications] Mad at people who take advantage Mad at myself for letting them Mad at promises that got broken Mad at how I trusted again This fire isn't trying to hurt It's trying to protect what's real Sometimes love looks like fierce boundaries Sometimes healing's gotta feel [Pre-Chorus - Growing confidence] What if anger's not the enemy? What if it's fuel I've been afraid to burn? What if all this fire in my chest Is exactly what I need to learn? [Chorus - More powerful] Fire works, repair through rage Breaking down what shouldn't stay Fire works, sacred anger Burning bridges that led me astray Not destruction just to destroy But clearing ground for something new Fire works, holy fire Maybe mad is how I heal too [Bridge - Integration of the concept] They tried to teach me anger was wrong But maybe righteous fire makes you strong Maybe every prophet felt this fire Maybe fury's how you save your soul From... (from...) Smiling through the mess... (smiling through the mess...) This rage is not my enemy This rage is clarity This rage says "you deserve better" This rage is setting me free [Final Chorus - Full acceptance] Fire works, repair through rage Breaking down what shouldn't stay Fire works, sacred anger Burning bridges that led me astray Yeah, sometimes love looks like fierce fire Yeah, clearing ground for something new Fire works, holy fire Mad is exactly how I heal too
