Fire in my chest it’s a scream not a sigh I was told to sit still while the world passed me by But I’ve got matches hidden in my veins Fuel for the lies they carved in my name Burn it down, burn it down, burn it down now Let the ashes fall, let the embers bow This is the reckoning, the reckoning, the reckoning No crown, no chains, no kings, no reign They built their castles with our blood and bone Turned our voices into whispers alone But their walls are paper their thrones are straw And I’m the storm they never saw Light the spark, hold your ground Feel the heat, don’t back down Burn it down, burn it down, burn it down now Let the ashes fall, let the embers bow This is the reckoning, the reckoning, the reckoning No crown, no chains, no kings, no reign Shhh do you hear it The sound of fear it Cracks in the walls Their empire falls Shhh do you hear it The sound of fear it Cracks in the walls Their empire falls Burn it down, burn it down, burn it down now Let the ashes fall, let the embers bow This is the reckoning, the reckoning, the reckoning No crown, no chains, no kings, no reign
