Most of my life, I have waited out the storm;

but today I dance in the rain.

I look up to the sky, as lightning strikes..

And let it wash away my pain.

I remember that day, when it all went wrong.

And I’ll never forget, that I stood before the lord; so strong.

My words falling off my tongue.

‘I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul.

I’ll pick up the pieces and make myself whole.

I depend on no one, I have my own light.

I have the sun to keep me warm, and the stars at night..

To keep me wondering; to keep me looking.

To keep me pushing, to keep me pulling.

And lord if you doubt me, I know how you feel.

But where doubt is a feeling…. I am real.’
