I've got fire for a heart

Here's the first verse of 1D's new single "Drag Me Down":

I've got fire for a heart, I'm not scared of the dark
You've never seen it look so easy
I got a river for a soul, and baby you're a boat
Baby, you're my only reason

Firstly, what does the first line (I've got fire for a heart) mean? Also, why it's "a heart" and not "my heart"?

Secondly, what does "it" mean in You've never seen it look so easy?

Thanks!

Anonymous what does the first line (I've got fire for a heart) mean? for ~ instead of; in place of Anonymous why it's is it "a heart" and not "my heart"? Either is possible, but the idea is "I have fire where any other person would have a heart", and you couldn't have "my heart" there.
