justice banks - fire lyrics

verse 1
we don’t yell ‘cause we hate, we yell ‘cause we scared
every silence feel loaded, like somebody dared
i learned love in a war zone voices over truth
so when i feel you pull away, that’s when i get rude
i don’t listen, i defend, i sharpen every word
turn a moment into damage, now the room is cursed
i say “i’m fine” like it isnt a lie
but my chest stay tight, tryna win instead of try

i been fighting ghosts you ain’t never met
old wounds ripped open when i feel neglect
i don’t wanna bleed on you ‘cause i’m still cut
but i keep letting my past speak up

+++

pre+chorus
i don’t wanna be right if it cost us peace
don’t wanna raise my voice just to feel seen
if i’m honest, i’m terrified of losing you
so i react like i already did

+++
chorus
i’m unlearning the fire i used to survive
putting out my pride so we can stay alive
i don’t need to win, i just need you here
so i’m doing the work when sh+t gets real
i’m breaking the cycle even when it hurts
talking through the pain instead of throwing dirt
i dont need a mirror to see myself
yeah, i’m healing out loud for us

+++

verse 2
i grew up thinking love meant tension in the air
that calm was just the quiet before somebody disappeared
so when things get soft, i don’t know what to do
i start poking at the peace, start looking for proof
that you won’t switch up, that you won’t leave
that i’m enough when i’m not right, please

i been mistaking control for safety
reading tone wrong, letting fear play me
i say things sharp ‘cause i’m scared to say
“i need reassurance, i need you to stay”

+++

pre+chorus
i’m learning how to pause when i feel triggered
learning how to hear you, not just respond quicker
i don’t wanna punish you for who hurt me
so i’m sitting with the feeling ‘til it stops burning

+++

chorus
i’m unlearning the fire i used to survive
putting out my pride so we can stay alive
i don’t need to win, i just need you here
so i’m doing the work when sh+t gets real
i’m breaking the cycle even when it hurts
talking through the pain instead of throwing dirt
i dont need a mirror to see myself
yeah, i’m healing out loud for us

+++
bridge (half+sung / half+spoken)
if i walk away, don’t mean i’m gone
i’m just tryna calm the storm before i speak wrong
if i ask for sp+ce, don’t mean i don’t care
i’m learning how to love without hurting you there
hold me accountable, not against me
i’m not who i was, but i’m still unsteady

+++

(pre+chorus)
we ain’t perfect, but we present
choosing growth over resentment
if love is work, i’m clocking in
‘cause i don’t wanna lose you to who i’ve been

(chorus)
i’m unlearning the fire i used to survive
putting out my pride so we can stay alive
i don’t need to win, i just need you here
so i’m doing the work when sh+t gets real
i’m breaking the cycle even when it hurts
talking through the pain instead of throwing dirt
i dont need a mirror to see myself
yeah, i’m healing out loud for us

(outro)
