F I R E (ACT II)
My baby chases fireflies, smiling with her brown eyes
Doesn't know what you're gonna put her through
'Cause I'm working for the good life, staring through your white lies
Honey don't you tell me what I should do
And maybe she's the reason why
I started painting all my white flags blue
'Cause my girl deserves a good fight
So I'll be at the frontline fighting for two
Now my daddy worked the long nights
Dreaming bout the day he could step out and feel the sun on his face
My mama worked a double shift, fighting off the racists
Telling her to go back to where she came from
And maybe they're the reason why
I slowly became everything that you hate
But I don't give a damn what you say
Hey, I won't fall in line no more, no more, now
Hey, running out of time, so long, so long
Hey I'm gunning, I'm gunning for my voice to be heard oh
Hey, nobody left behind oh
All the people on the news now telling me to bow down
Like i'm gonna listen to what they say
They've forgotten that I'm too proud
I don't hide in big crowds
Honey if you hurt me, you're gonna pay
And I know I'm the reason why
The people who hate me, they won't get away
And I don't give a damn what you say
Hey, I won't fall in line no more, no more, now
Hey, running out of time, so long, so long
Hey I'm gunning, I'm gunning for my voice to be heard oh
Hey, nobody left behind oh
So, honey, now do you see
What I've been fighting for all this time
Now, honey, do you believe
That I'm gonna make it right
So, honey, now do you see
What I've been fighting for all this time
Now, honey, do you believe
That I'm gonna make it right
Hey, I won't fall in line no more, no more, now
Hey, running out of time, so long, so long
Hey I'm gunning, I'm gunning for my voice to be heard oh
Hey, nobody left behind oh
Hey, I won't fall in line no more
So, hey, you best run and hide
Doesn't know what you're gonna put her through
'Cause I'm working for the good life, staring through your white lies
Honey don't you tell me what I should do
And maybe she's the reason why
I started painting all my white flags blue
'Cause my girl deserves a good fight
So I'll be at the frontline fighting for two
Now my daddy worked the long nights
Dreaming bout the day he could step out and feel the sun on his face
