When I was younger
I had a dragon
We would fly away to places you can imagine
And this is a story
On a lonely island
With some boy who'd found a way to become a lion
On our way to London
Up on the tower
We would spend our nights and days runnin' the hours
Oh, I remember
As I looked in the mirror
Saw I was brave enough this time as I came nearer
Sometimes you gotta stand for something
Sometimes you gotta stand your ground
So I keep my head up, I keep my head up, I keep my head up
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire this time
I'll take it higher
I'll take it higher
'Cause I got the fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
Fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
Under the ocean
I found a treasure
It was my heart, not gold or silver that you measure
Just a king in my castle
I'm goin' to battle
Ain't no giant here too tall
I couldn't handle
Sometimes you gotta stand for something
Sometimes you gotta stand your ground
So I keep my head up, I keep my head up, I keep my head up
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire this time
I'll take it higher
I'll take it higher
'Cause I got the fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
Fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
See the stars that aline at night
Like the distance between your eyes
It's the lightning I feel inside
Tell me that ain't magic
Hear the horses runnin' wild
To the first steps of a child
Feel the thunder with all her might
Tell me that ain't magic
Don't tell me it ain't real
So tell me it ain't true
'Cause I see the fire
The fire in you
Don't tell me it ain't real
So tell me it ain't true
'Cause I see the fire
The fire in you
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire
I got the fire this time
I'll take it higher
I'll take it higher
'Cause I got the fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
Fi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ire
