sunshine

I used to chase the sunrise, hoping it'd light my way,
But every dawn that broke, I’d feel a little more gray.
Waiting on the world to tell me who to be,
When all along, the answer was shining back at me.
Pre-Chorus:
Oh, I spent so long just standing in the rain,
Thinking I was lost, thinking love was pain.
But now I see it, clearer than before,
The love I need was knocking at my door.
Chorus:
I'm a sunflower, turning to my own glow,
Reaching for the light that I didn’t know.
Dancing to the rhythm of my heartbeat song,
Loving who I am, right where I belong.
Oh, I'm blooming, I'm starting to see,
The one I’ve been waiting for was always me.
Verse 2:
I’d hold my breath, afraid to be too loud,
Hide my colors when I'm in the crowd.
But now I paint the sky with every shade,
My love’s a fire that will never fade.
Pre-Chorus:
Took a while to see that I’m enough,
That I’m made of magic, made of tough.
Now I’m standing tall, roots deep in the ground,
And my heart’s the only beat I need to count.
Chorus:
I'm a sunflower, turning to my own glow,
Reaching for the light that I didn’t know.
Dancing to the rhythm of my heartbeat song,
Loving who I am, right where I belong.
Oh, I'm blooming, I'm starting to see,
The one I’ve been waiting for was always me.
Bridge:
Every petal, every thorn,
Made me who I am, reborn.
I won’t wait for love to find,
What I’ve grown inside my mind.
Chorus (Variation):
I'm a sunflower, in a sky so blue,
Learning how to shine in all I do.
Dancing to the rhythm of my heartbeat strong,
Found the love in me that was there all along.
Oh, I'm glowing, I’m finally free,
The love I was searching for was always in me.
Outro:
Sunflower glow, shining in the breeze,
Loving myself comes with such ease.
Every day, I grow a little more,
In this garden of love that I adore.
