Reach for the fire 🔥

Intro

Come closer.

Let the silence speak.

There are truths in the fire

That the daylight cannot reach.

Verse One

I watched the desert drink the sun,

Saw rivers change their course and run.

I heard the secrets stone concealed,

And learned what time would never yield.

A spark can warm a stranger's hands,

Or leave its scars across the land.

The difference isn't in the fire—

It's in the heart that feeds desire.

Pre-Chorus

So reach beyond the glow you see,

Beyond the warmth, beyond the dream.

For fire can show us who we are,

When all our masks fall in the dark.

Chorus

Let the fire reveal you,

Let it show what you defend.

Feel the warmth you hold within you

Through the hand that you extend.

Will you rise to stand beside me,

Will you leave the world divided?

The fire burns the same for all—

But not all hearts survive its call.

Verse Two

I've seen a thousand faces shine,

Each swearing that their truth was mine.

I've watched the clever cheat the weak,

Then curse the truth they dared not speak.

We draw our lines and turn away,

With so much left we could still say.

But when the final shadows fall,

The fire asks the same of all.

Pre-Chorus

What good is light that blinds the eyes?

What good is strength that lives on lies?

The brightest spark can fade away—

The warmth we share can choose to stay.

Chorus

Let the fire reveal you,

Let it show what you defend.

Feel the warmth you hold within you

Through the hand that you extend.

Will you rise to stand beside me,

Will you leave the world divided?

The fire burns the same for all—

But not all hearts survive its call.

Instrumental

Verse Three

Then let me be the hand you find,

An open palm held out to yours.

We carry something of each other

Long before we know its source.

I hear you breathe before you sing;

I leave you space and you begin.

Your voice becomes a part of mine

Without surrendering a thing.

Bridge

We are already connected.

We can feel it when we give.

The fire that we reach for

Is within us as we live.

Let it move through every kindness,

Through the things we choose to do.

When I reach for what’s inside me,

I find something shared with you.

Final Chorus

Reach for the fire,

Let the fire reveal you.

Let it show what you can give,

Let another heart come near you.

I will rise to stand beside you,

With a hand I can extend.

Feel the fire we hold inside us

In the warmth that passes between.

Reach for the fire—

You feel it in me.

I feel it in you.

We only have to reach.

Outro

Come closer.

Bring the fire you hold.

There is warmth enough between us

For the hands we have yet to know.
