[Chorus: LeGrand]
I told you I don't want to waste my life
It's why I'm working in the middle of the night
Some people want money
Sex, drugs, but honey
I just want to change the world before I die

[Post-Chorus: LeGrand]
I told you I just want to be remembered
Long after they have put me in the grave
I told you I just want to feel the embers
Temperature burning at the bottom of the blaze
Do you see it?
A revolution, you part of it
With friends all in the streets
And my beats are in their heart
And it breathes like start of spring
But God sees the culmination of a storm in the sea

[Verse 1: LeGrand]
It's growing louder and louder
And prouder and prouder
They crowded around
And the time of their feet to the beat on the ground
And all the people who didn't believe in the dream were then gone
And then finally free to just sing
They were wrong
[Chorus: LeGrand]
I told you I don't want to waste my life
It's why I'm working in the middle of the night
Some people want money
Sex, drugs, but honey
I just want to change the world before I die

[Post-Chorus: LeGrand]
I told you I just want to be remembered
Long after they have put me in the grave
I told you I just want to feel the embers
Temperature burning at the bottom of the place
Do you feel the ember?
Feel the ember
Feel the ember
Do you feel the ember?

[Verse 2: Alyssa Caldwell]
Do you see me?
I feel invisible
Hours and days and weeks and months you miss it all
Thinking about you is irreciprocal
Being without you, I miss you
I don't get missed at all
I understand you're married to your work
You turn your head to not put me first
We're going under and I can't control, it hurts
The fact that you don't know just makes it worse
[Chorus: Alyssa Caldwell]
You told me you don't want to waste your life
That's fine but I miss you by my side
It's a perfect day to work it
Do I deserve it?
Is it worth it that nobody ain't nice?

[Post-Chorus: Alyssa Caldwell]
You told me you just want to be remembered
But baby, I'm afraid you'll forget
You smile and my heart is like an ember
The temperature is falling, all I wished you'd do is
Let me feel the ember
Feel the ember
Feel the ember

[Chorus: LeGrand & Alyssa Caldwell]
I told you I don't want to waste my life
That's fine but I miss you by my side
Some people want money
Sex, drugs, but honey
Is it worth it that nobody ain't nice?

[Post-Chorus: LeGrand & Alyssa Caldwell]
I told you I just want to be remembered
But baby, I'm afraid you'll forget
I told you I just want to feel the embers
You smile and my heart is like an ember
Temperature burning at the bottom of the place (The temperature is falling, all I wished you'd do is)
Do you (Let me) feel the ember
Feel the ember
Feel the ember
