Note to Self - Ready the Prince

Shine a light

Make it bright I told myself

Bout time I told myself

I need a change

A different way is what I said

That voice inside my head

I’m looking up

I’m looking far beyond the shade

A star is glimmering

My eyes have opened

I know the days of choking are gone

My dreams were broken I thought

It takes time and it’s taken me so long

I have to say

That in that ray I’ll think of her

And all the things I learned

She was a sign

It’s not just pride I have to prove

Now I’ve got something to lose

The line is drawn

For so long I’ve gone through hell

Bout time I told myself

(I found)

My eyes have opened

I know the days of choking are gone

My dreams were broken I thought

It takes time and it’s taken me so long now I see it

I can’t believe it’s shining

My light will soon be rising

Till the day that I die when the fire in me is gone
