Paroles
A young child sits quiet, the forest is dark Possibilities overflow his unbroken heart I ask him well after the brush takes the spark What do you see in the fire? I see light within color and color in light Trophies I'll take home and battles I'll fight A bright blue horizon with no pain in sight I'll be there and so will my parents and you're invited too A life-sentence inmate in orange prisoner clothes Who's been told his whole life that's just how it goes Who came out swinging from poverty row Sits a bit close to the dangerous glow What do ya see in the fire? I see rich people laughin' with food on their plates And neighborhood bullies imprinted with hate Moms and dads screaming at each other insane And hard grey redemption a little too late And I see myself as I might've been I’m handsome, and capable, and funny A young woman in college entranced by the flames is pondering silent how perfectly strange A girl could be called by so many names and not one be the one she was given What do you see in the fire? I see myself in the mirror, not pretty enough And digital images reducing love My roommate enslaved by expectations above And then I see the face of my mother
