Soulshine Streets

Shadows on the wall remind me of the fall

Broken pieces scattered on the floor

I trace the lines of every scar I wore

Learning how to breathe again once more

(smoky tone)

The weight is lifting slowly from my chest I feel the fire

starting to ignite

(gospel harmony swells) I

rise above the ashes of yesterday

Heart beating stronger in this brand new way No more looking back

at what could have been

I'm claiming back the light within (yeah) (ooh)

Echoes of the past fade into the night

I stand a little taller in the light

Every tear I cried became my strength

Writing my own story at the end (smoky emotional tone)

I rise above the ashes of yesterday

Heart beating stronger in this brand new way No more looking back

at what could have been

I'm claiming back the light within (yeah) (ooh)

Through the storm I found my voice again

Healing hands are guiding me to mend (ahhhh)

I rise above the ashes of yesterday

Heart beating stronger in this brand new way No more looking back

at what could have been I'm claiming back the light within (yeah) (ooh ooh)

Fading into light... (ooh)
