Fire burning from the outside to the inside out
There's a feeling leading, pleading
Follow where it goes
Excess baggage falling, crawling
Throw it all away
My redemption actual, factual
Happening today

I'm holding on to everything we have
We'll say "goodbye" to everything we love

I, I, I believe,
That the fire is here today
I, I, I believe,
That the smoke in my eyes,
It just won't go away

Digging deeper there's a well
The years have tried to hide
Blood red freedom in my veins,
Get ready for the ride.

I'm holding on to everything we have
We'll say "hello" to everyone we love!

chorus (twice):
I, I, I believe,
That the fire is here today
I, I, I believe,
That the smoke in my eyes,
It just won't go away

Feel it, feel it coming on.
Have some fear, 'cause the heat is on.
Watch it comming from the sky,
He's riding in on his chariot of fire.
Feel it, feel it don't give up.
We're holding up this burning cup.
Hear it, hear it shake the ground,
The freedom people make their sound.
