My Own Light
When I was young
Life was like a bad dream
Good things didn't seem
Destined for me
I was confused
About what to hold dear
Not enough love
And just too much fear
Slowly I learned
To trust what feels good
To love myself
And lighten my mood
Life's too sweet
To waste it on greed
I have
Much more than I need
Growing up lonely
Through times that were tough
Worried about
Was I good enough
Stare into the moonless night
The path is clearer by
My own light
Floating up high
Above the Earth
With nothing in between
I wonder
If you see me now
do you think
you know what I mean
I can see the ones
Who would hold me down
And push my face
In the dirt
I know
They're the only ones
That they can ever hurt
Nothing touches me
I'm wild and free
As I take my
rightful place
I don't have to be
Ashamed to be
A member of the
Human race
Growing up lonely
Through times that were tough
Worried about
Was I good enough
Stare into the moonless night
The path is clearer by
My own light
Life was like a bad dream
Good things didn't seem
Destined for me
I was confused
About what to hold dear
Not enough love
And just too much fear
Slowly I learned
To trust what feels good
To love myself
And lighten my mood
Life's too sweet
To waste it on greed
I have
Much more than I need
Growing up lonely
Through times that were tough
Worried about
Was I good enough
Stare into the moonless night
The path is clearer by
My own light
Floating up high
Above the Earth
With nothing in between
I wonder
If you see me now
do you think
you know what I mean
I can see the ones
Who would hold me down
And push my face
In the dirt
I know
They're the only ones
That they can ever hurt
Nothing touches me
I'm wild and free
As I take my
rightful place
I don't have to be
Ashamed to be
A member of the
Human race
Growing up lonely
Through times that were tough
Worried about
Was I good enough
Stare into the moonless night
The path is clearer by
My own light
