The Fire in My Name

[Intro] Mm Oh-oh Mm-hmm [Verse 1] I know they counted me out before the start They measured the pride and called it small But royalty don't answer to the noise I carry the drum inside my chest [Pre-Chorus] And when the night goes quiet I still hear the beat It's pulling me forward It's telling me to rise [Chorus] Beyond the game Beyond the pain I found the fire burning in my name They can doubt me They can walk away But I was born to rise beyond the game [Verse 2] The years I spent out in the cold The doors that slammed before I spoke Every lesson cut me deep and true Now I wear my crown the way I choose [Pre-Chorus] And when they thought I'd broken I only learned to bend The fire kept on glowing The story's not the end [Chorus] Beyond the game Beyond the pain I found the fire burning in my name They can doubt me They can walk away But I was born to rise beyond the game [Bridge] I built my throne on honest ground I counted scars and called them sound Nothing left for them to take The man I am is wide awake [Chorus] Beyond the game Beyond the pain I found the fire burning in my name They can doubt me They can walk away But I was born to rise beyond the game [Outro] Beyond the game Mm I was born to rise
