Verse 1
Woke up with the weight of the night still on me
But it’s lighter than it used to be
I used to count the cracks in the ceiling,
Now I’m tracing clouds I can barely see
Pre-Chorus
There’s a spark in the static,
A hum in the quiet air
It’s small but it’s something,
And I’m still there
Chorus
I’m almost in the sun,
It’s touching just my fingertips
Still learning how to run,
But I’m done with giving in to this
Every scar becomes a story
Of the battles I’ve begun
I’m not shining yet—but I’m
Almost in the sun
Verse 2
I still get lost in the echo sometimes
When the dark starts calling my name
But I’ve learned how to whisper back softly,
“I’m not playing your game.”
Pre-Chorus
I used to break just to feel it,
Now I breathe just to stay
It’s a slow kind of healing
But I’m finding my way
Chorus
I’m almost in the sun,
It’s touching just my fingertips
Still learning how to run,
But I’m done with giving in to this
Every scar becomes a story
Of the battles I’ve begun
I’m not shining yet—but I’m
Almost in the sun
Bridge
Maybe I don’t need to glow
To know I’m growing
Maybe the cracks just show
Where the light’s been showing
Final Chorus
I’m almost in the sun,
And it feels like I belong
The night’s still chasing some,
But the morning’s getting strong
Every mark is just a memory
Of the hurt that’s come and gone
I’m still fighting—but I’m
Almost in the sun
