Soul Lyrics: “I Forgot I Was Fire”
(396 Hz)
As you read this sacred reflection on Genesis 3:21, allow the music to become your grounding companion. “I Forgot I Was Fire” is a Root Chakra healing track tuned to 396 Hz, composed to evoke the ancient moment when spirit first entered form—when the light-body was veiled in flesh and the memory of divine origin dimmed beneath survival.
(Verse 1)
I was light before the fall Breath of stars,
I held it all Golden skin and voice of flame
Now I walk without a name
They wrapped me up in flesh and clay
Told me I must find my way
I looked around and felt the fear
The sky was far, but Earth was near
(Chorus)
I forgot I was fire, buried in skin
Tangled in roots, I begin again
Veiled in dust, clothed in time
Searching for the flame that once was mine
I forgot I was fire—but I remember now
Through the drums and the ground, I make my vow
To rise from below, from matter to flame
To walk through the veil and call my name
(Verse 2)
Ancestral echoes in the drum
Calling back where I come from
Heartbeat low beneath my feet
The path is pain, the path is sweet
These coats of skin, they hold me tight
But deep inside still burns the light
Each scar a story, every bruise a bell
That rings the truth I almost couldn’t tell
(Bridge)
I bend like the branches,
I bleed like the stone
But nothing can steal the light I own
I’m not just dust—I’m memory’s flame
The fire that sleeps in God’s own name
(Chorus – repeat)
I forgot I was fire, buried in skin
Tangled in roots, I begin again
Veiled in dust, clothed in time
Searching for the flame that once was mine
Akpan Abasi, anamde ke ufok
Idem mi ebot, mkpoutung ke ntok
Ama anamde—eka ke esit
Fiok Abasi ke nsin mi itoro
I forgot I was fire—but I remember now
Through the drums and the ground, I make my vow
To rise from below, from matter to flame
To walk through the veil and call my name
(Outro – soft chant, layered vocals)
I am fire… I am light… Under skin… still I rise…
Wrapped in earth… soul untamed…
God in clay… still the same…
