[Intro]

Mmm, yeah…

All right now...

Ha!

[Verse]

I was born where the blacktop ends,

Thunder rolling through my name.

No halo ever fit this head,

Just gasoline and flame.

I don’t beg and I don’t bow,

I don’t pray for the light to stay.

I walk where the night allows,

Let the sinners clear the way.

[Pre-Chorus]

You can lock your doors, you can curse my name,

But you can’t put out that kind of flame.

[Chorus]

’Cause there’s fire in my veins,

Ash in my breath,

I dance on the line between life and death.

I’m the storm you hear before the rain,

Yeah, there’s fire—fire in my veins.

[Verse 2]

I never claimed to be your cure,

I’m the fever that won’t fade.

The mirror don’t lie no more,

It shows the beast I made.

Don’t preach about your promised land,

I’ve seen the price they pay.

I’ll take my truth unholy and grand,

And burn the rest away.

[Pre-Chorus]

You can run from the smoke, but you can’t escape,

Cause the fire’s gonna rage.

[Chorus]

’Cause there’s fire in my veins,

Ash in my breath,

I dance on the line between life and death.

I’m the storm you hear before the rain,

Yeah, there’s fire—fire in my veins.

[Bridge]

I don’t need no saving grace,

No crown, no cross, no chain.

If heaven don’t want my face,

I’ll build my own domain.

Lightning hums my lullaby,

The wind calls out my name.

I ain’t the devil—but I see eye to eye,

And it burns the same.

[Final Chorus]

There’s fire in my veins,

Ash in my breath,

I dance on the line between life and death.

I’m the storm you feel before the rain,

Yeah, there’s fire—fire in my veins.

[Outro – Spoken/Softly Sung]

Mmm, yeah...

Let the preacher pray...

I was born in the smoke,

And I’ll burn that way.

I was born in the smoke,

And I’ll burn that way.

I was born in the smoke,

And I’ll burn that way.
