Quiet on the surface, calm in the storm
But deep down, a fire was born
Don’t mistake my silence for peace
I got flames in me that never cease
You won’t see it, but it’s there
A burning truth beneath this stare
Hidden flames, they light my way
Underneath, I burn every day
Not for show, not for fame
I move in shadows, fueled by flame
They only notice when I explode
But I’ve been smoldering in code
Words I never said weigh a ton
But I carry them ‘til my work is done
You won’t see it, but it’s there
A burning truth beneath this stare
Hidden flames, they light my way
Underneath, I burn every day
Not for show, not for fame
I move in shadows, fueled by flame
I don’t scream, I spark and rise
Burn the lies with silent cries
They don’t know what I contain
I’m a calm face with hidden flame
Hidden flames, I keep them close
That’s my fuel when I need it most
No spotlight, just heat and aim
I walk this world with hidden flame
