First light paints the window pane a shade of rose and gold

(Verse 1)

First light paints the window pane a shade of rose and gold

Another day is dawning, a story to unfold

I remember nights when shadows stretched and filled my room with fear

You were nowhere to be found, just echoes in my ear.

The silence was a thunder, a storm inside my soul

And reaching out for comfort, I found a gaping hole.

(Chorus)

Where were you when I was lonely, needing your support so near?

But you walked away to someone else, now I've learned to conquer fear.

Every mountain I have climbed, every battle I have fought

Was a lesson written in the stars, a strength I never sought.

(Verse 2)

The city lights still flicker, a vibrant, pulsing beat

But they don't hold the same allure, not bitter, not so sweet.

My laughter rings much louder now, unrestrained and free

Surrounded by a circle, my chosen family.

We dance beneath the moonlight, with music in the air

No lingering regrets, no burden left to bear.

(Rap Verse)

Yeah, the life I'm living now, it's a brand new chapter, see?

Got my ride-or-dies beside me, living wild and living free.

Used to think I couldn't breathe without your shadow near

Now my lungs are filling up with dreams, casting out all prior fear.

Late night calls and inside jokes, adventures every day

You missed the show, my friend, you really went astray.

(Chorus)

Where were you when I was lonely, needing your support so near?

But you walked away to someone else, now I've learned to conquer fear.

Every mountain I have climbed, every battle I have fought

Was a lesson written in the stars, a strength I never sought.

(Outro)

No, I don't regret a single tear, a single lonely night

'Cause they forged the woman standing here, bathed in my own light.

You chose your path, I chose mine too

And darling, mine is brilliant, shining, fresh and new.

The stars above still guide me, though your name they do not spell.

They whisper tales of resilience, of a spirit strong and well.

Each constellation a reminder of the journey I have made,

From the darkened valleys of despair to this sun-drenched parade.

My heart, once a fragile bird, now soars on mighty wings,

Unafraid of the horizon, of all that morning brings.

The scars I carry are not badges of weakness, but of battles won,

Each one a testament to the strength that's just begun.

I learned to trust my own compass, to navigate the stormy seas,

To find my own harbor, my own solace and my ease.

The echoes of your absence have faded with the years,

Replaced by the music of my own triumphant cheers.

And as the world awakens in hues of gold and red,

I stand a testament to hope, to the future I have led.

I am the architect of my joy, the painter of my dreams,

Washing away the remnants of what only sadly seems.

This newfound self is a treasure, more precious than before,

And I’ll forever cherish the strength that opened up this door.
