As I Lay Dying - Shaped By Fire

Lyrics to Shaped By Fire by As I Lay Dying

[Intro: Tim Lambesis] Oh [Verse 1: Tim Lambesis] The wise before me chose to refine themselves Melt away their shortcomings by enduring trials A process we will all undertake Even if we try to prevent change [Pre-Chorus: Tim Lambesis] Face it before you are pulled in Face it while it's still within [Chorus: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert] Like iron shaped by fire, we aren't born this way Shaped by fire, we are reborn through pain We aren't born, we aren't born this way We are reborn, we are reborn through pain [Verse 2: Tim Lambesis] Though I too have endured fire I wasn't wise enough to ignite the flame myself But carried enough fuel for a flicker to excel [Pre-Chorus: Tim Lambesis] Face it before you are pulled in Face it while it's still within Face it before you are pulled in Face it while it's still within [Chorus: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert] Shaped by fire, we aren't born this way Shaped by fire, we are reborn through pain We aren't born, we aren't born this way We are reborn through pain Shaped by fire, we aren't born this way Shaped by fire, we are reborn through pain We are reborn, we are reborn through pain [Bridge: Tim Lambesis] The time has come to watch the fire grow Find new things to throw in, don't let the flames get low I've grown used to the heat that makes me reevaluate What I carry with me and what should be thrown away [Pre-Chorus: Tim Lambesis] Face it before you are pulled in Face it while it's still within [Chorus: Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert] Like iron shaped by fire, we aren't born this way Shaped by fire, we are reborn through pain We aren't born, we aren't born this way We are reborn through pain Shaped by fire, we aren't born this way Shaped by fire, we are reborn through pain We are reborn, we are reborn through pain
