[Verse 1]
I had to look in the mirror, and mean it
Not luck, not a fluke, I’m the reason
I came in quiet, now I’m seen it
Gold on my fingers, I’m gleamin’
I am the gift, yeah, I said it
I earned this glow, I wear it, I kept it
No more shrinking, no more begging
I step in the room and the room get heavy
I am the shine, I’m the bright light
Walk through the storm with my head right
I don’t chase, I attract mine
Watch how the hurt turn to diamonds
[Pre-Chorus]
I am love
I am peace
I don’t fold
I release
What was mine
Found its way
Every step
Made a lane
[Chorus]
I am the gift, I am the gift
(yes, I am)
I am the shine, I am the shine
(look at me)
Everything I touch turns gold
Everything I touch turns gold
I am the gift, I am the gift
(yes, I am)
I am the light, I’m in control
Everything I touch turns gold
[Verse 2]
Used to hand out my heart too easy
Now I keep my crown where I can reach it
Soft, but never weak when they need me
Still got a wall for the ones who deceive me
I’m the blessing in the middle of chaos
I’m the calm when the whole world shakes off
I’m the proof that the pain don’t own us
I turned my scars into a golden bonus
Tell me I can’t, I’ll turn it around
Watch me rise when they count me out
Every bruise made a beat in my chest
Now I move like a prayer with a check
[Bridge]
I am love
I am peace
I am the one
They can’t breach
I was buried
Now I bloom
Made my own sun
In the room
[Chorus]
I am the gift, I am the gift
(yes, I am)
I am the shine, I am the shine
(look at me)
Everything I touch turns gold
Everything I touch turns gold
I am the gift, I am the gift
(yes, I am)
I am the light, I’m in control
Everything I touch turns gold
[Outro]
I had to realize
I was the gift
I am the shine
And I don’t miss
