[Intro]
New year
New sky
Old chains
Wave bye
[Verse 1]
Left that weight in yesterday
All that leaning, all that ache
Cut those strings that held me still
Now my steps are mine to take (yeah)
See that road, it bends and breaks
I’ll get lost and learn the way
Map is inked in scraped up knees
Compass sitting in my faith
[Chorus]
I’m done with dependence, I’m chasing the fire
I’m running on freedom, I’m climbing up higher
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that guides
Shining through the doubt in your worried eyes
I’m done with the waiting, I move like a storm
I’m cutting through silence, I’m changing the norm
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that rides
With you through the dark till the fear subsides (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Every “can’t” I turn to dust
Every “stay” just feeds my rush
Pack my hope and little cash
Still, that spark feels like enough (feels like enough)
If you’re stuck in second-guess
Text my name, I’ll send you steps
We can trip, we laugh it off
Call it progress, not a mess (hey)
[Chorus]
I’m done with dependence, I’m chasing the fire
I’m running on freedom, I’m climbing up higher
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that guides
Shining through the doubt in your worried eyes
I’m done with the waiting, I move like a storm
I’m cutting through silence, I’m changing the norm
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that rides
With you through the dark till the fear subsides (woah)
[Bridge]
If your hope feels thin as thread
I’ll tie mine to yours instead
Two small sparks can blaze a trail
Watch us turn the night to day (to day)
[Chorus]
I’m done with dependence, I’m chasing the fire
I’m running on freedom, I’m climbing up higher
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that guides
Shining through the doubt in your worried eyes
I’m done with the waiting, I move like a storm
I’m cutting through silence, I’m changing the norm
This year I’m the light, I’m the light that rides
With you through the dark till the fear subsides (yeah)
