• Light shaker or brushed percussion

Lyrics:
I am the morning sunlight,
That breeze in the air,
The reason to return each day,
A quiet prayer.

Reflections in the sky’s wide frame.
Fine as time, I rise again,
Magnificent A.M — I am.

The spark reborn beneath the sky.

Magnificent A.M — I am.

Instruments:
• Add rhythmic bass (gentle groove, not heavy)

I walked through thunder, ran through flame,
Lost my heart, then found my name.
Now every dawn reminds my soul,
I was broken just to be made whole.

I am the calm after the night’s loud cry,
The spark reborn beneath the sky.

Magnificent A.M — I am.
