About this song
The fire burns within Chandra Nalaar - persecuted for her flames, she lost her father and was sentenced to death. But you can't kill what refuses to die. Her spark ignited, and she returned to Kaladesh to lead the rebellion that freed her people.
Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse 1] They told me fire was forbidden Said my flames would burn too bright Chased my family through the shadows Made us run into the night Father fell beneath their judgment Mother locked behind the walls And they dragged me to the gallows But I refused to fall [Pre-Chorus] You can chain me, you can cage me Strike the match and watch me rise [Chorus] I am the spark that won't go quiet I am the flame you cannot kill Burn down your laws, burn down your silence I'll keep burning, burning still Try to put me out, I'll blaze brighter Every ember finds its way You made me the torch of defiance And I'll burn until my dying day [Verse 2] They thought death would be my ending Thought the blade would snuff me out But the fire had other plans And I vanished, swallowed by the clouds Learned to fight on distant worlds Let my anger find its form Then I heard my homeland calling Heard the thunder of the storm [Pre-Chorus] Mother's alive, Baral still breathing Time to finish what they started [Chorus] I am the spark that won't go quiet I am the flame you cannot kill Burn down your laws, burn down your silence I'll keep burning, burning still Try to put me out, I'll blaze brighter Every ember finds its way You made me the torch of defiance And I'll burn until my dying day [Bridge] Kaladesh, I'm coming home To free the ones still in chains Every tyrant learns the lesson Fire remembers, fire remains Tezzeret, Baral, the Consulate Your reign is at an end You created your own destruction When you tried to break what bends [Final Chorus] I am the spark that won't go quiet I am the flame you cannot kill Burn down your walls, burn down your empire I'll keep burning, burning still Try to put me out, I'll blaze brighter Every rebel finds their way You made me the torch of defiance And I'll burn until my dying day [Outro] Still burning... still burning...
