[Verse 1] I watched the dark unseal Like rain on glass A silver line in motion Passing fast The old hum held my name In the quiet air Not like a warning More like a prayer [Pre-Chorus] And the horizon turned Soft at the seam I saw my shadow soften Inside the stream The river kept on going Toward the sea And something in me answered Let it be [Chorus] I am my own orbit I am my own light Spinning through the unknown Into morning sky I am my own orbit I am my own light (own light) Still becoming Still alive [Verse 2] The city woke in color On the edge of dawn Windows catching gold Where the night was gone I heard the distant stars In the waking blue Not as distant answers But as something true [Pre-Chorus] And every line I crossed Became a door Every quiet ending A little more The hum came back to me Warm and near Like it had been waiting All these years [Chorus] I am my own orbit I am my own light Spinning through the unknown Into morning sky I am my own orbit I am my own light (own light) Still becoming Still alive [Bridge] No map made me whole No name stayed the same I was shaped by the weather By the rain By the hands that held me By the roads I chose By the fire in my breathing As it grows [Chorus] I am my own orbit I am my own light Spinning through the unknown Into morning sky I am my own orbit I am my own light (own light) Still becoming Still alive I am my own orbit I am my own light (own light) And I’ll follow Where I rise [Outro] Warm now The hum stays warm
