Light It Up

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Started with a spark in the dark, no stage, no sound Just a whisper in my chest saying “turn it around” I was lost in the dark tryna find my way Til the fire hit my veins and it lit the way Now I’m walking like I know where the light comes from Not a flicker, not a phase—it’s steady and strong Yeah, I’ve seen what the night tries to make of me But the flame in my veins won’t let me stay asleep ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 1] Feel it rising in my chest now No, I’m never going back now If I’m breathing, then I’m burning If I’m living, I’m living loud! ⸻ [Chorus] We light it up, up, up From the inside out No, we won’t stay quiet now We were born to be loud We light it up, up, up Let the whole world see There’s a fire in our veins And it’s setting us free ⸻ [Verse 2] No, we’re not what we were when we walked in afraid Now the shadows start running when we call out His name Every doubt tried to bury what was breaking through But the stone rolled away when He said “I choose you” Now we’re carrying a flame they can’t counterfeit It’s a kingdom kind of fire, and we’re living in it Yeah, we’re done with the dim, we’re done with the gray We’re the evidence of light and we’re here to stay ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] We’re not hiding anymore We’re not holding back the flame If the fire’s in our veins We’re about to fan the blaze ⸻ [Chorus] We light it up, up, up From the inside out No, we won’t stay quiet now We were born to be loud We light it up, up, up Let the whole world see There’s a fire in our veins And it’s setting us free ⸻ [Bridge – Call & Response] (Leader) This is the fire You gave us (Crowd) We won’t let it fade (Leader) This is the light You made us (Crowd) We’re not ashamed (Leader) We were lost in the shadows (Crowd) Now we’re wide awake (Leader) Tell the dark it’s over (All) There’s no stopping this flame ⸻ [Break / Build] Oh—turn the lights down low Let the fire grow Feel it take control Oh—from the weak to bold From the ash to gold Watch the story unfold ⸻ [Final Chorus – Key Change ↑] We light it up, up, up From the inside out No, we won’t stay quiet now We were born to be loud We light it up, up, up Let the whole world see There’s a fire in our veins And it’s setting us free ⸻ [Outro Tag] Yeah, it’s setting us free Yeah, it’s setting us free We light it up
