[Chorus]
I've been through the fire and it made me great
I'll go back again if it's what it takes
Would say it was nothin, but it cost a lot
When you're going through the flames tryna make it out
[Verse 1]
Took a fiery dart
Straight to the heart
This like the middle of the story but it's where ima start
The only light I see is the flame that's burning me
Demons waiting in line to take a turn on me
Friends turnin' on me
Switchin' up
Thinkin bout givin up
My karma's catchin up
It's gone take more than luck
To get me out of this
I'm not down for this
How do I counter this?
On my counter, there's a Bible
In my head, there's a spiral
I have made so many idols
Should I bow down?
I am desperate for survival
Started praying again and it only got hotter
But this that 09' Ye, what don't kill ya make you stronger (iii)
[Chorus]
I've been through the fire and it made me great (It made me great)
I'll go back again if it's what it takes (Do what it takes)
Would say it was nothin but it cost a lot (It cost a lot)
When you're going through the flames tryna make it out
[Post-Chorus]
I been through the fire
Now I'm only shining brighter, ayy, ayy
I been through the fire
Found out that the devil was a liar (Devil is a liar)
[Verse 2]
Woke up from the schemes
Woke up, time to dream
Yes I'm really free, this the song of the redeemed
Everything's not what you thought
Now when I say I'm great it's cause the greatness of God
I reflect
I'm the head not the tail
I ain't got no debt
So go on and send your threats
I'm good, I'm blessed
Last time I checked the devils under my feet
Took an L but now I got the victory with me, ahh
[Chorus]
I've been through the fire and it made me great (It made me great)
I'll go back again if it's what it takes (Do what it takes)
Would say it was nothin but it cost a lot (It cost a lot)
When you're going through the flames tryna make it out
[Post-Chorus]
I been through the fire
Now I'm only shining brighter, ayy, ayy
I been through the fire
Found out that the devil was a liar (Devil is a liar)
[Bridge]
I see how they lied to me
Stripped away all my belief
Did their best to hide the key
But God was always on my side
Send your threats, I will not blink
Focused on my destiny
I'm not scared of fire
A greater kind of fire lives inside of me
[Chorus]
I've been through the fire and it made me great
I'll go back again if it's what it takes (I'll go back again)
Would say it was nothin but it cost a lot (It cost a lot)
When you're going through the flames tryna make it out
[Post-Chorus]
I been through the fire
Now I'm only shining brighter, ayy, ayy
I been through the fire
Found out that the devil was a liar, yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Outro]
I've been through the fire and I'm still alive
Out here shining brighter like 7 times
I've been through the fire and I'm still alive
Unless God says so, I won't die
Unless God says so, I won't die
