Never Going to Take my Fire

Everyday enemy tried to get the best of me

The enemy under my skin

Everyday enemy, my fatal flaw anatomy

Feelin’ like I just can’t win

Sometimes I wish I didn’t feel that much

Sometimes I wish I didn’t need that touch

But everyday my enemy pretend to be a friend to me

No matter what state I’m in

But you’re never gonna take my fire

I cannot not be tamed

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

It’s burning in my veins

You say the world is changing

But I still burn the same

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

The ancient flame lit the spark back before I was young

When I’m speaking with the fire, it’s my native tongue

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

The growth mindset is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can cultivate through your efforts. Everyone can change and grow through application and experience.
If you are honest with yourself, there is a gap between where you are and where you want to be. Will you embrace the GAP? Will you have the courage to seek the GAP? Will you aggressively live in the GAP?
