Been walking down these back roads with nowhere to go Chasing ghosts of who I thought I had to be Every town I passed through carried the same slow flow Just another face in a crowd I’d never see The water called my name but I was scared to leave Thought the answers lived inside the hurt I’d known Now the morning finds me standing by the shore Finally ready to believe what’s shown I can feel the warmth across my face Something in my chest is coming loose I don't need to carry all this weight Setting down the pain I couldn’t use As the light finds me, I'm breathing again Letting go of years I held too tight Morning on my shoulders, easing my chest As the light finds me, I step toward what’s right Used to think that moving fast would heal the ache Running from the quiet when it got too real Every mile I covered just repeated the mistake Another empty promise I could never seal But I'm learning that the road don’t have to be straight Sometimes stopping still is how you start to feel The horizon’s wide and I can see it now All I needed was to wait and heal I can feel the tide begin to turn Rising with the sun across the bay Found a place where I no longer yearn For something that was here the whole way As the light finds me, I'm breathing again Letting go of years I held too tight Morning on my shoulders, easing my chest As the light finds me, I step toward what’s right Yo, mi open up mi eyes and see di world a little different Sun a creep across di water, painting gold along di shore Dem used to tell mi run, but now mi learning fi be present Every step mi take today mean more than all di ones before Mi been carrying di past like iron holding ‘round mi ankles But di morning come and loosen up di grip So mi stand here with mi feet in sand, no more angles Just di truth of where mi stand and how mi fit Mi let di ocean take what never serve mi anymore All di doubt and all di fear mi used to know From di valley to di sunrise, mi been searching for a door Now di light point mi exactly where fi go Inna di darkness mi was pressing on too tight But di dawn come through and teach mi how fi breathe Under western sun, mi step into di light As di morning find mi now, mi start fi believe As the light finds me, I'm breathing again Letting go of years I held too tight Morning on my shoulders, easing my chest As the light finds me, I step toward what’s right Let the morning come, let the morning come As the light finds me Let the morning come, let the morning come Yeah, the light finds me
