I knew I could beat her Strong and confident, that's me But there's a big difference Between bravery and stupidity

“Think before you act” Empty words repeated “Control your temper, young lady” I don't care, a fire has to stay heated I burned brighter than ever Only a single friend beside me I thought together we were enough I unleashed the flame out from inside me

We burned, we fought, we exploded Like I had many times before But lectures and school and practice Aren't the same as a war

She ripped apart my friend Then set her sights on me My body broken, I realized my mistake and struggled to crawl to safety

In the end, she dragged me back laughing like she'd had fun scars to cover my face I can never hide what I'd become

I cried to my family when I told them what I'd done they smiled and said “we know, dear” for that, you needn't feel glum

They'd already forgiven me Even those of them I'd attacked My best friend smiled at me anyway He told me “we've still got your back”

My flame is still burning and they're all there for me They fan the flame brighter And remind me of responsibility

I can keep it burning I've learned a lot from them I'll keep it safe and warm Without exploding again
