[Intro - Soulful Harmonies] [layered vocals building] The gift... the gift is here The gift... the gift is clear What I received... I freely give This is how... I choose to live [Verse 1] I emerge from the fire refined With a diamond state of mind Got the vision, got the power This is my defining hour What I lost, I didn't need What I gained will help me lead Others who are on the path After going through the wrath [Pre-Chorus] From the darkness to the light From the wrong into the right Everything I've been through Has prepared me... for you [Chorus] I got the gift, I got the light Shining bright through the night Wisdom flowing through my veins Breaking free from all the chains I got the gift, I got the power Rising up in my finest hour What I am is what I give This is how I choose to live [Verse 2] Every scar's a work of art Every wound has healed my heart I'm not who I was before I am infinitely more Connected to the source of life Cut through illusion with my knife Of consciousness and clarity This is my reality [Verse 3 - Storytelling] I remember when I was lost Counting every gain and cost Now I know the price I paid Was for the foundation laid Of wisdom, love, and understanding Of purpose so commanding That I can't help but share The light that's everywhere [Bridge] The gift is not for me alone It's for the seeds that I have sown In the hearts of those who need A little light to help them feed Their dreams and their potential This gift is essential To the healing of the world Let the truth be unfurled [Verse 4 - Empowerment] Now I stand in my full power In this blessed, sacred hour Not above, but here beside Every soul that needs a guide I am teacher, I am student Every moment, I'm fluent In the language of the heart This is where the healing starts [Final Chorus - Expanded] I got the gift, I got the light Shining bright through the night Wisdom flowing through my veins Breaking free from all the chains I got the gift, I got the power Rising up in my finest hour What I am is what I give This is how I choose to live WE got the gift, WE got the light Shining bright through the night Wisdom flowing through our veins Breaking free from all the chains WE got the gift, WE got the power Rising up in our finest hour What we are is what we give This is how we choose to live [Outro - Generous Spirit] Take the gift, pass it on From the dusk until the dawn Every heart that's been broken Needs to hear these words spoken: You are worthy, you are blessed You will pass the hardest test You have gifts to share as well You have stories to tell Of your journey through the night To your own internal light...
