Brighter Than My Shadows

[Verse 1 – Soft / Honest]
I wasn’t the saint they said I should be,
I was lost in the dark, fighting demons in me.
But somehow you grew from the cracks in my flaws,
Proof that the broken can still give it all.


---

[Pre-Chorus – Rising Tension]
I’m not a hero, but I swear it’s true,
Every scar on my soul still led me to you.


---

[Chorus – Melodic, Anthemic]
And I couldn’t be happier, watching you shine,
You turned all my chaos to something divine.
I’m sorry for the nights I slipped through the cracks,
But you carried the strength I thought I lacked.

And I’ll cheer for you louder than I ever have before,
You’re brighter than my shadows — my forever, my core.


---

[Verse 2 – Slight Edge / Grit]
Take his hand, build your fire,
Burn through the world, climb even higher.
And just know, no matter where you roam,
You’ll always be my little girl, my home.


---

[Final Chorus – Full Power, Emotional Punch]
And I couldn’t be happier, watching you shine,
You turned all my chaos to something divine.
I’m sorry for the nights I slipped through the cracks,
But you carried the strength I thought I lacked.

And I’ll cheer for you louder than I ever have before,
You’re brighter than my shadows — my forever, my core.


---

[Outro – Soft / Whispered]
Yeah, you’re brighter than my shadows…
Forever my daughter, wherever you go.
