[Verse 1] Woke up Same mirror Same doubt Tracing every tiny flaw out Why’s it so loud in my head When the room is quiet instead Scrolling through a perfect highlight Comparing my storm to their sky But under all the tired and tried I feel a little spark still alive (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been running from my own reflection Chasing every stranger’s validation But I’m done hiding in the background Turn it up Hear me now [Chorus] I choose me I shine anyway Even when my colors fade to gray I get up I fight through the rain Every bruise becomes a brighter shade I choose me Every scar Every stain Turning all my heartbreak into flame I fall down Then I rise Unafraid I choose me I shine anyway (oh-woah) [Verse 2] Late nights Talking to the ceiling Listing all the things I’m not yet But I’m learning how to love the process Every slow step Yeah That’s progress Little voice saying “you’re too much” Another says I’m never enough I’m tired of that tug-of-war I’m locking that old door [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been running from my own reflection Chasing every stranger’s validation But I’m done hiding in the background Turn it up Hear me now (hey) [Chorus] I choose me I shine anyway Even when my colors fade to gray I get up I fight through the rain Every bruise becomes a brighter shade I choose me Every scar Every stain Turning all my heartbreak into flame I fall down Then I rise Unafraid I choose me I shine anyway (yeah, yeah) [Bridge] Step by step Breath by breath Every “almost” made me blessed All my cracks let the light in This time I’m on my side I’m on my side (oh) [Chorus] I choose me I shine anyway Even when my colors fade to gray I get up I fight through the rain Every bruise becomes a brighter shade I choose me Every scar Every stain Turning all my heartbreak into flame I fall down Then I rise Unafraid I choose me I shine anyway (shine anyway)

dance, Glossy K-pop blend of Pop, R&B, and Dance-Pop; bright synth plucks over a punchy four-on-the-floor groove, silky female vocals with tight stacked harmonies in the chorus. Verses sit in a smoother R&B pocket with warm pads and subby bass; pre-chorus strips back to claps and filtered chords, then the chorus explodes with sidechained synths and airy top-line ad-libs. Bridge adds half-time drums and vocoder layers before a final key-lift outro hook., r&b, pop
