Title NOT YOUR CAGE
LYRICS:

I don’t chase, I just ignite,
my soul burns loud without a fight.
I build no cage, I hold no chain,
but still you flinch beneath my flame.

I’m the fire in your reflection,
you run like prey in all directions.
You say that flying makes you free,
but love, to you, means gravity.

I saw you come, a stream astray,
you turned and ran before the blaze.
My flame was never meant to bind,
just light a bridge to free your mind.

Yes, I’m volcano—not your cage,
purest fire, not your rage.
You feared the burn that leads you higher,
but all I wished was to inspire.
To make you steam,
to help you rise,
Your river wings,
your soul the skies, your truth: to fly.
Run and run! But you will learn—
my heat was never yours to burn.

I gave you shelter in my ash,
but you climbed cliffs to make a dash.
Your freedom was a great disguise—
you mistook love for sacrifice.

And my embrace?
It felt too wide.
So much it scorched
your silent pride.

And still I waited, held no line,
like wishing fate would show a sign.
Was I the path?
Or just the test?
Was I the flame
or your unrest?

A soul that burns will never plead,
her truth is fire no one reads.

And now the wind won’t speak so clear,
but still it hums when you are near.
My magma sings without control—
your echo burning through my soul.

Yes, I’m volcano—not your cage,
I’m living force, I’m turning page.
Yes, I’m volcano—not your chain,
I’m glowing truth, not silent pain.

You feared the burn that leads you higher,
but all I wished was to inspire.
To make you steam,
to help you rise,
Your river wings,
your soul the skies, your truth: to fly.

Run and run! But you will see—
my fire never held a key.
Fly and fly! You can’t escape:
if not through me, where will you blaze?

(“I’m not your cage… not your cage…”)
(“You run from you… from you… from you…”)
(“To love is sometimes to ascend…”)

She never bound you,
never tried.
But fear erased
what you felt inside.

I’m not your prison, not your chain,
I saw the flame and called it pain.
My lava sings, I let you go,
Your fire became my north, my glow.

We are not jail, we are the spark,
Water and flame that light the dark.

Only the wind remembers well
what we became,
no need to tell…
Just dawn and silence
where we fell.
