Lyrics:
You try to hold me down so I became a soldier
Built up all theses walls and now I'm climbing over
Those nasty bees are tempting me
Oh lord! But I ain't going back
You take me for a fool, that doesn't make me foolish
Told me I was wrong, passion made you ruthless
Manipulate, it's just too late
Oh lord! 'Cause I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think it's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
I tried to get this weight off of my shoulders
Built up all my strength I'm finally taking over
Complicate, I don't appreciate
Oh lord, 'cause I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think it's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Breakin' me, shakin' me, shapin' me
Into what I never wanted, oh
Breakin' me, shakin' me
Makin' my beatin' heart a little stronger
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think it's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire, this fire
Is keeping me alive

This is the first time ive heard of Johnathan Roy. Im listening to him right now. What an amazing voice
The struggle is real. But that FIRE is keeping me alive!
It's difficult to put into words how much this song means to me. It has guided me through so many difficult times and made me a better person. You want to scream, you want to run, you want to cuddle, you want to be alone, you don't want to be alone.
Thank you for this very special song!
thank you for your beautiful comments Marius.

@@jonathanroyofficial An easy search: BIBLE + FREEMASONRY, through which lies and truth becomes easy listed.
So far i have listed 28 lies and 28 truth.
Have you started to dig? What have you found?
I had to screenshot your comment and literally SAME this is amazing
100
I found this Song today❤
It was Covid isolation in Saint-Petersburg. Me and my future wife in a small flat. We don’t have enough money. So close to hate each other. So close to depression. And I found this Treasure.
4 years later. January. My sweet wife gives me a present - vocal lessons! She knew, that I really wanted it. Cause Covid and no money stopped my lessons.
Nowadays. Open lesson with all students of my Vocal master. I sing this song. The power of words and memories beat me in my heart. But now I’m stronger than 4 years later. I finished this song. My hands shaked.
Me and my wife love each other and understand very very deep. All fears and problems now at the past and I love her so much.
Thank you for your music and for this emotions. Forever in my heart!!!
Питерская. Уже не там :( Привет, земляки!
Everyone's in love with his voice but...
DAMN! I gotta say that lady has A HELL OF A VOICE! :O They sound so perfect one next to another!
Kim Richardson. Her name is in the list of musicians
Ms. Kim made me pause and go mmph!!
She's been aroung for quite a while too, she did Women in chains with Tears for Fears a few years back! Truly talented! (this is not taking anything away from Jonathan's talent!)
Agreed !!! Her voice is sick !!!
Adrian Biedrzycki I agree that lady has some soulful pipes too!
You try to hold me down
So I became a soldier
Built up all these walls
And now I'm climbing over
Those nasty beasts
Are tempting me
Oh Lord but I ain't going back
You take me for a fool,that doesn't
Make me foolish
Told me I was wrong
Passion made you ruthless
Manipulate
Its just too late
Oh Lord,but I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames
Gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain
That you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted this fire,this fire is keepin' me alive
Makin' me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave,You think it's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire,this fire
I tried to get this weight
Off of my shoulders
Built up all my strength
I'm finally takin' over
Complicate
I don't appreciate
Oh Lord,but I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames
gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain
That you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted this fire,this fire is keepin' me alive
Makin' me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave,You think it's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire,this fire
Is keeping me alive (×3)
This fire,this fire
They breakin' me
Shakin' me
Shapin' me
Into what I never wanted
And breakin' me shakin' me makin' my beatin' heart a little stronger
Breakin' every chain that you put on me..
@Melissa Ponzopena Yup I guess your corrections are right and also it's "Your Fueling of the flames"

Vasilena M. Thanks you!
THANK YOU
Vasilena M. thank U
As someone who's recently left a trauma-bond/abusive relationship, there hasn't been awfully much that gets me by... except this song. Thank you for creating something that means so much to so many different people.
Going thru this myself but I left him and he found me and abused me again and again I'd report it, I tried to move on, and because I made so many reports cps took my kids away. Smdh. They should've gotten me and my kids away from him or punished him not my kids and i

every night when i’m left alone with my insecure thoughts sometimes anxiety attacks, listening to this song helps me calm down a lot.
💜
You'll be alright, it all comes good ,trust me 😉😎
Sending you lots of calm, breathing techniques are great to bring yourself back to yourself. 🙏🏼
❤️
Rishita, I wish you inner peace and joy. Thank you for sharing through the love of music...JR
The emotion in this performance is absolutely absorbing and it gives me chills and goosebumps. This artist is so underrated. His voice is intoxicating. So is hers in the back. Beautiful combo!
thank you Ryan, that is very nice of you to say,
JR
Amen to that!
Jo and Kim together it's just FIRE
❤
Kim Richardson, she has an amazing voice!!
It's 3.30am here in France and I'm listening to Jonathan Roy's amazing voice and piano playing to help me soothe the tumult in my head. Thank you JR!
It's 01:09am here in Serbia and im in the same mood. Keep backin' to this masterpiece when I need this the most. ❤
It's 7:20pm here in Quebec and I'm probably going to go to his concert soon
I almost never comment on youtube. But this is a moment for exceptions.
This is a masterpiece on all levels!
I am a survivor of many abusive relationships and this song acurately and poetically expresses the hell I have been through. But somehow, heaven as well. With the amazing choir, the powerful back up vocals, the dancing man rising in the end.
The lyrics, melody, voice and video are in perfect harmony and they convey the power in all of us, to overcome and transcend our battles and maybe turn them into masterpieces like this one.
Amazing, Jonathan! Amazing! From the passion that put into the singing, I can feel you’ve been there and came out. Well done for everything! Thank you! ❤
Unbelievable that this is the very first Jonathan Roy song I've ever heard, and you put into perfect words everything it made me feel. Well said Arina
sar`mana
I’ve never commented on RUclips until this song It’s helped me through a lot after an abusive relationship
Chi sarà Io ho giudicare tu?o
Però non sono d'accordo con te
Świetnie napisałeś, czuję i myślę to samo o tym video.
Holy smokes!! This is one of those songs that gives you chills from head to toe!! Bravo
Ohh yess chills🎶🎵
Indeed
I'm probably at least 1.5k of those views... This song literally kept me alive!!! Thank you!!!
The comment section says it all. I love scrolling through the comment section of songs that ignite my spirit; so I can see proof that there are others that are actually alive within and have the presence of movement when they hear music that resonates. I’m in great company, because this song sparks a fire in my soul and it’s evident I’m not alone. 🔥 😭❤️
Nikdy nie si sám 😉💞
i recently ended a relationship of 18 years. a suffacating, abusive relationship that almost broke me. i fought back , released myself from it and came up stronger and myself again. this song , these words, feels like its written about me. i love how talented people can make music that hits you in the face and reaches into your soul.... thank you for this wonderful song, it will be precious for me al my life long.. greetings from belgium
Thank you so much Nicky, I am glad that you took yourself out of that situation and that the song brings you solace. Stay strong...JR
@@jonathanroyofficial Oh young man not only are you fantastic in so many ways but kind also? Keep caring!
This song...I’ve cried to this song, danced to this song, sang it with joy, and sang it with rage. It was on repeat through every dark night and every gray day as I fight to heal CPTSD and face my abusive past. It’s not just a good song, I feel it in my soul and it’s pulled me out of bed too many times to count.
Thank you so much for the nice words Lora. Hoping that you gain the strength necessary for you to lead the life that you want...sending you lots of love and determination, JR
The song,your voice,the words and good lord that back up singer !wow! you go girl. Love it all good job jonathan!
Been listening for thousands of times..and always hits me like the first time.......Songs like these keep us alive! Thanks Jonathan!!!❤
This song is literally keeping me alive. Life can be brutal but when a song hits like this and picks you up in dark times makes it that much more amazing
@Todd McGuire I hear you.
My thoughts exactly!
I can relate 🥲
It lets you know you’re the actual fire that’s keeping you and others alive....
👐
I seriously have goosebumps, its the best feeling when you have found a song that awakens something inside you
Amo essa letra , amo essa voz , estou apaixonada
Absolutely stunning ❤❤
Keep coming back to this, i never get enough of this song...there is something very powerful about it, something that makes me jump into my fears and fight with every one of them 🙂
It’s real 😊
Beautiful, inspiring and just an amazing song. Awesome job guys and the woman doing back-up vocals, gave me goosebumps. WOW!!!
For everyone that overcame or is going through serious toxic, desperate and abusive conditions, at any time or point in your life, you're incredibly strong, don't give up, it's worth it, YOU, are worth it, don't let anything or anyone to extinguish your fire, even if you have no one, you have YOU, all my strengh and hope goes out for ya, stay safe, stay strong, stay smart, defend your hope with everything you've got.
And you as well my friend! May God bless you!🙏💙
I think EVERYONE needs to hear this. It's prophylactic. Thanks for sharing the positivity
Its all what someone of us need to hear sometimes.
Спасибо большое
Beautifully said 💜
this song is something unrealistically attractive for me. Every time I hear it, I am filled with such fiery emotions, energy.....amazing
Thank you for your kind words Lidia...JR
I get chills every time I listen to this. My God! What a performance! What a message!!! ❤❤❤❤
I love this song! What it transmits and how it sings with so much passion is beautiful!!! ❤🔥
I have never heard this artist before until tonight and man, his music is totally what I need atm. Hugs from Ireland.
You came here from Hozier huh lol
same here ;-) Hug from Vienna
Hello this is my private account, where i chat with fans, you are one lucky fan to receive a free chatting from me
Came here from Sia myself. 😉
Josip B. Hugs from a proud Irish American in New Jersey enjoying the same music.
Being the son of a legendary NHL goalie likely came with a tremendous amount pressure for you to follow in your dad's footsteps. But, you managed to follow your own dream and carve your own independent path towards success and contentment as a musician. You obviously found your true calling in life to produce and sing songs that offer us a glimmer of hope, serenity, and beauty in a world that is rife with turmoil, chaos, anxiety, distrust, inequality, and suffering. Bravo to you Jonathan.
Thank you so much Frank, your kind words mean a lot to me. JR
@@jonathanroyofficial Anytime...from a former Colorado resident to another former Colorado resident.
Amen!! Couldn’t have said it better!! From another CO resident (native) and Avs fan since the beginning in ‘95!! Now a Jonathon Roy fan for all the goosebumps you give me that I never quite got from hockey!! 😉 Thank you for your music JR!! 🖤🎶🎵
The fact that he is singing barefoot grounded on earth and bringing it through his whole being takes the song to another next level and one can just close eyes and feel him...
The most moving passionate performance I've ever known, always come back to this song when struggling, so empowering.
45 years old and I finally found my "go to" song. Brilliant every day and twice on Sundays!
HE'S GOT EVERYTHING...THE VOICE, POWERFUL LYRICS, GREAT PRESENCE & EASY ON THE EYES...JUST SHOWS NO MATTER HOW SIMPLE A CLIP CAN BE IT CAN BE JUST AS MOVING & POWERFUL AS A MILLION DOLLAR CLIP BECAUSE IT'S ABOUT HAVING TALENT & BEING RAW
Maria, thank you so much for your beautiful comments. I love doing the one take video and audio...they are challenging but raw and real...JR
@@jonathanroyofficial You're most welcome Jonathan & it's true. I hope u do more one-take videos as they are quite remarkable in their own right.
Maybe u could do one in a suit, clean-shaven on a stormy beach for a stark contrast.
Australia would love to have u & welcomes u with outstretched & open arms.
Never forget you're a musical virtuoso & I hope to see u live. I wish u all the very best JR:)
I had this song on repeat a couple of years ago, then forgot for a minute, so I spent the whole day trying to remember the name. Thanks God I did find it.

Lyrics:
You try to hold me down so I became a soldier
Built up all theses walls and now I'm climbing over
Those nasty bees are tempting me
Oh Lord! but I ain't going back
You take me for a fool (fool), that doesn't make me foolish
Told me I was wrong (wrong), passion made you ruthless
Manipulate, It's just too late
Oh lord! 'cause I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
I tried to get this weight off of my shoulders
Built up all my strength I'm finally taking over
Complicate, I don't appreciate
Oh lord! 'cause I ain't going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I'm made of
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire (Is keeping me alive)
Breakin' me, shakin' me, shapin' me
Into what I never wanted, oh
Breakin' me, shakin' me
Makin' my beatin' heart a little stronger
(Stronger)
(Stronge baby)
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Breakin' every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn't change but I grew on you
'Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn't do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It's all about you
You know I'll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive.
thankss
It was very nice of you but the lyrics are also available in the description.
Thank you
Your afford is appreciated..
It's my son's song, but I love it..
Music has been a very big part of my life, I went to every one of the concerts , I'm the generation of baby boomers...it what it is..you name a band I've seen it...and some you don't know...i liked the blues,.my husband played guitar, who didn't???
Hehe!!! But at Bijou cafe we saw Muddy Waters,..and that was tops..
A very small place, with student desks, old time, one piece,..serving cheese and crackers,.I have ,must share this..Piano player was something out of magazine, toll thin with a sigaret in his lips and the ash as long as the sig, my husband got up walked up to him took the sig shook of the ash and put it back in his lips,...epic...my tears rolling on my cheeks, remembering..Michael , my first only love, and best friend, my link to the world past in 88,..living behind our 3 boys to be raised by me..grown now with children of their own...did, not bad, never went to jail, and making a good living, law abiding citizens. .
I thank God I experienced true love, and learned how to appreciate music ,universal language..
Is the little things,.. have not been in another relationship..I had the best ...

Just heard this song for the first time tonight. This speaks to me on so many levels. I’ve gone through heartbreak, betrayal, loss, loneliness, and despair. But I am still here, still breathing, still living, still fighting. I still have a mission, a purpose for my life, and whatever it takes, I will see it through. THIS FIRE IS KEEPING ME ALIVE!!!! Thank you, Jonathan Roy, for this track and God bless you!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words. This song did a great deal of healing for me as well. I hope you find the happiness that everyone deserves...stay strong, JR
"the human voice is the organ of the soul" ... there's so much passion in his voice!
Thank you so much Dima...JR
An unearthly piece,an unearthly performance and,above all, an unearthly artist ❤❤❤
This song gives me freedom after all the situations when I was in pain. I can feel how my soul breaks all the chains. Thank you 🤍❤
I saw Jonathan last night at the Capitole in Quebec City, my first concert since COVID started and I picked a great one. The night started off with an opening act from a young man named John. This was his first time singing before a live audience but definitely won’t be his last. He has an amazing voice and he is a great storyteller. Then on to Jonathan and his family (as he calls his group), they sang a variety of his songs for 90 minutes. We the audience were amazed and happy, the walls of the Capitole shook last night with love and appreciation for the show we were given by such a talented group of musicians. They portrayed a tight knit group of people that had lots of love and respect for each other and I can’t forget they had fun up there singing for us. One of my best shows ever. Thank you all.
This is a freaking beautiful song, man. Keep them coming.
I love listening to your songs, they are full of emotions.
It touches heart and soul.
God protect you in all your ways. 🙏❤️
I don't know how I missed out on being one of the millions to hear this phenomenal song. You are true talent. Truly an inspiration to anyone wanting to break the expectations and be their own person and so what makes YOU happy and not others. I can't wait to dive into more of your work. Sending all the love and appreciation! ✌🏻❤️😊
