See the Fire

See The Fire - 6:42
written by Billy Glover, BMI

V1 I am sitting in the wind. Like a flag, I am burning.
I am rolling off a rock. Like a wheel, I am turning.
Can I make an ember glow? Do I know which way to go?
There’s a race to the other side. It’s a place I cannot hide.

Chorus:
Maybe then I’ll see the fire. Maybe then I can show my face.
Maybe then I’ll call out the liar.

V2 I’m standing on the brink. My decision and a yearning.
I’m stepping into space. No return from the learning.
Will the effort win a prize? Little visions in my eyes.
Will the staircase now ascend? Or dissolve from within?



Bridge:
Shout if you fell the need. Laugh if you need relief
Cry if you see the tears. Sing if you need release.
Cut to free the shackle. Bridge to lead the way.
Point in a new direction. Love is what we say.

V3 On a wire in the balance. I am high without a net.
I’m suspended. Now it’s ended. I am placing every bet.
The fire there that’s growing, has me smiling like a cat in a tree.
The smoke of my beginning builds desire to be free.
