[Intro] I don’t burn like they expected I don’t break the way they planned [Verse 1] Pressure sitting in my bloodstream Quiet chaos in my chest Every word I never spoke Still vibrating in my breath They called it too much feeling I called it staying real You can’t see the kind of strength That never needed steel [Pre-Chorus] I was never disappearing Just learning how to stay [Chorus] I’m a violet flame Not fading in the dark I don’t need your light I generate the spark Every scar I carry Every silent weight Didn’t put me out It made a violet flame [Verse 2] Standing in the same room Still a distance you can’t cross You were looking through me While I calculated loss I was holding everything While you drifted somewhere else Now I feel the shift inside I don’t need you for myself [Pre-Chorus] I was never disappearing You just never saw me stay [Chorus] I’m a violet flame Not fading in the dark I don’t need your light I generate the spark Every scar I carry Every silent weight Didn’t put me out It made a violet flame [Bridge] I am not the silence you ignored I am not the echo you outgrew I am everything that stayed alive While you looked away… and called it through [Final Chorus] I’m a violet flame Watch me illuminate I don’t need permission I don’t hesitate Every part of me You couldn’t see or name Didn’t disappear It became the flame [Outro] I was never gone I was becoming something you couldn’t contain.
