Stand and Burn (Zuko Rap) lyrics
by Rustage
Intro/Chorus (Ben Schuller from NerdOut!):
I can numb the pain, but the feelings hurt
I can't stay the same, it don't seem to work
We've been forged in flame
I've got much to learn
I know I must change
Stand and Burn
Verse 1 (Rustage):
I've been scared and brusied
It's hard to choose
And tho I struggled gaining
I'm too far to lose
My chance to prove my worth
And then start anew
I answer to myself
Never after you
Uh
When you're indoctrinated, hatred is all you have known
Grown on the teachings of those
Looking to strip you of hope
Hung at the еnd of my rope
Choking on the heat couldn't copе
Prince of my kingdom
So why did I feel so cold and alone
I must be one who atones
Forks in my paths and my roads
Mind bout to burst and explode
Dragging me back to the throne
Look at the pain I've been shown
I'll make a choice on my own
Gaze at the sins of my people
I feel it down to the bone
I feel it down to my blood
I feel it down to my heart
Taking a breath in the darkness
I see the light in the dark
I see the vision of greatness
I see the man from my past
I see the choices that I'm making
I see the hurt and the scars
Chorus (Ben Schuller from NerdOut!):
I can numb the pain, but the feelings hurt
I can't stay the same, it don't seem to work
We've been forged in flame
I've got much to learn
I know I must change
Stand and Burn
Verse 2 (Rustage):
When you're blinded by objectives
You can't stop to think
I've been pulled in all directions
Now I'm on the brink
I learn my lesson
And the fear I'm not forgetting
Cus the writings on the wall
But someone came along and smudged the ink
I'm not a prodigy
I'm just a kid who knows his worth
Dragged down through the dirt
I'll make sure they get what they deserve
Iroh gave it meaning
So I'm channelling his thoughts and words
Fire in my mouth
I've got a message and it's getting heard
I keep on getting burned
I'll never be deterred
Nations are at war
I'm not supporting those who gain from hurt
Can't see how hard I've worked
Won't leave my name besmirched
Slicing through my hair I'm changing now
So let them do their worst
I took the lighting but send it back, I stay fighting, no second chance
I'm igniting the embers that have been rising
I'm striving to be the person
I'm carving out like a diamond
So I stand and burn away the past
The me that won't be hiding
Chorus (Ben Schuller from NerdOut!):
I can numb the pain, but the feelings hurt
I can't stay the same, it don't seem to work
We've been forged in flame
I've got much to learn
I know I must change
Stand and Burn
Outro (Rustage):
Feel the fire and the flames as it's burns up
I can never be the same watch it burn up
I feel the fire and the flames as it's burns up
I can never be the same watch it burn up
