Bonfire

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

My mama always said I was born for this

And some people wouldn’t like that I was different

It never really mattered how hard it would be

Cause she filled me with love and the strength to lead.

She said, oooohaa

That kid’s a flame

Said ooooha

That kid’s a flame

He’s gonna burn something down if you get in his way

I came to, light it up

Light it up, light it up

If I was born to be a flame

Then I wanna light a bonfire

Light it up, light it up, light it up

If I was born to be a flame

Then I wanna light a bonfire

Let it burn, let it burn

Let it burn, let it burn

I’m gonna burn something down if you get in my way

This is the shout out, this is my voice

Calling all the men, women, girls and boys

The dropouts, the losers, the hurt and the broke

Time to reclaim what the darkness has stole

Marching to the beat of a different drum

We live for the love without counting the cost

If you wanna be free then it’s time to go

Lift up your hands so the world will know

We came to light it up

Light it up, light it up

If we were born to be a flame

Then we’re gonna light a bonfire

Light it up, light it up, light it up

If we were born to be a flame

Then we’re gonna light a bonfire

Let it burn, let it burn

Let it burn, let it burn

We’re gonna burn something down if you get in our way

We are not meant to be silent

We are alive just to shine

We are not meant to be quiet

We are the light of the world

We gotta light, light, light it up

Oooohaa

That kid’s a flame

Said ooooha

That kid’s a flame

He’s gonna burn something down if you get in his way

We came to light it up

Light it up, light it up

If we were born to be a flame

Then we’re gonna light a bonfire

Light it up, light it up, light it up

If we were born to be a flame

Then we’re gonna light a bonfire

Let it burn, let it burn

Let it burn, let it burn

We’re gonna burn something down if you get in our way
