Memphis May Fire – This Light I Hold lyrics

(feat. Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach)

[Intro: Jacoby Shaddix]
I feel the spotlight, I see their eyes,
They lit a fire just to burn me alive.
I feel the judgment, I hear the lies,
But I won’t go down without a fight.
I won’t go down without a fight!
I’m not going down!

[Verse 1: Matty Mullins]
I hear them twist my words
And mock everything I’m saying.
They hope I’ll crash and burn,
But I’m here and I’m staying.
It’s like everywhere I turn,
My enemies are waiting
To hurt me cause they’re hurt,
So I keep on praying.

[Pre-Chorus: Jacoby Shaddix]
I feel the spotlight, I see their eyes,
They lit a fire just to burn me alive (burn me alive).
I feel the judgment, I hear the lies,
But I won’t go down without a fight.

[Chorus: Matty Mullins]
I’m here
And I’m not leaving until I’m finished,
With every punch you throw,
I’ll get back up and go.
Hate me,
But I never said you had to listen,
This story is my own
And this light I hold will glow.

[Verse 2: Jacoby Shaddix]
They stabbed me in the back,
But these scars have made me stronger.
Always under attack,
But I can’t be conquered.
Remind me of what I lack
And hope I won’t last much longer.
Try to push me off track,
But I’ll stay right here with my honor.

[Chorus: Matty Mullins]
I’m here
And I’m not leaving until I’m finished,
With every punch you throw,
I’ll get back up and go.
Hate me,
But I never said you had to listen,
This story is my own
And this light I hold will glow,
This light I hold will glow.

[Hook: Matty Mullins]
You should know by now,
You can’t just push me out,
I will not let this go.
I might be bruised and beat
But I am on my feet,
You’ll never win this war.
This story is my own.
With my hands raised up high,
I’ll keep fighting the good fight,
And I am not alone,
This light I hold will glow!

[Bridge: Matty Mullins]
I’m here
And I’m not leaving until I’m finished,
With every punch you throw,
I’ll get back up and go.
Hate me,
But I never said you had to listen,
This story is my own
And this light I hold will glow,
This light I hold will glow.

[Outro: Jacoby Shaddix]
I feel the spotlight, I see their eyes,
They lit a fire just to burn me alive.
I feel the judgment, I hear the lies,
But I won’t go down without a fight!
