Ready to Shine

The waiting is over
I'm ready to shine
The chains that once held me down
Will no longer bind

I lived with uncertainty
And suffered through pain
Thought I had no control
So I prayed for change
Yeah, I prayed for change

Finally, I realized
The power’s inside
My fears are left behind
I'm ready to shine

I was floating in anger
Adrift in black seas
Always hoping for something to change
Or someone to rescue me

Then one day I raised my eyes
A new door came to light
Found the strength to walk through
Into a new life
Yeah, into a new life

Finally, I realized
The power's inside
My fears are left behind
I’m ready to shine
