[Verse 1]
Looking back at my camera roll
At a person I don't recognize
'Cause Jesus broke some barriers
And He went and He changed my life
[Verse 2]
I was staying up in the late of night
And wrestling with the voices in my head
Them demons tried to take my life
But they never had a chance in the end
[Chorus]
And I said no
Can't have my soul
Sorry, it's not for sale
I've done it on my own
It only led to hell
I was chasing the wind
Shivering in the cold
'Til You lit a fire in my soul
Through hell or high waters
You'll never take this fire in my soul
This fire in my soul
[Verse 3]
Looking back at old videos
At a person I don't recognize
Some devil tried enticing me
To sign my name on that dotted line
[Chorus]
But I said no
Can't have my soul
Sorry, it's not for sale
I did it on my own
And it only led to hell
I was chasing the wind
Shivering in the cold
'Til You lit a fire in my soul
Through hell or high waters
You'll never take this fire in my soul
This fire in my soul
[Verse 4]
I was staying up in the late of night
And wrestling the voices in my head
Them demons tried to take my life
But they never had a chance in the end
[Chorus]
And I said no
Can't have my soul
Sorry, it's not for sale
I've done it on my own
It only led to hell
I was chasing the wind
Shivering in the cold
'Til You lit a fire in my soul
Through hell or high waters
You'll never take this fire in my soul
This fire in my soul
[Bridge]
If my life is an altar
Then burn it up with fire in my soul

Song Meaning
The song opens with a camera roll, of all things — a scroll through old photos and videos that shows a person the singer barely recognizes. That gap between who he was and who he is becomes the hinge for everything that follows: late nights spent wrestling with voices in his head, demons that tried to take his life, and a devil offering a dotted line to sign. The chorus answers all of it with a flat refusal — his soul isn't for sale, and he admits that going it alone only led him toward hell, chasing the wind and shivering in the cold. The turn comes when God lights a fire in his soul, a flame the second half of the chorus insists nothing can take, through hell or high waters. The closing bridge reframes the whole song as an offering, asking that if his life is an altar, it be burned up with that same fire. It's a conversion story told through screenshots and stubbornness, less about a single moment than about a line drawn and held.
