βShine On, Young Starβ
Hey now, young star, reachinβ for the sky,
But the night was cold and the shadows played their games.
You stumbled hard, felt the weight of every βwhy,β
But the moon whispered, βLight a fire, donβt you ever chain your flames.β
Oh, the worldβs a stage where the spotlight screams,
βDance like the last night, let your soul scream dreams!β
You tripped on doubt, but the rhythm in your veins
Sang, βRise, rise, let your chaos turn to rainβ
Then dry it with the glow of a thousand suns, break the chains!β
So you ran through neon, chased the fading day,
With a grin like lightning and a heart that wonβt obey.
The stars above hummed, βYouβre the spark we lack,
Turn the dark to gold, donβt you fade, donβt look back!β
Now the crowd roars loud, but you shout, βIβm my own parade!β
With a fist in the air and a compass made of jade.
The roadβs a wild song, but youβre the beat they craveβ
βSing it loud, let the galaxies crave your name, unchained, unswayed!β
And when the final note fades, and the curtainβs drawn tight,
Youβll still be the echo in the endless nightβ
A flicker, a flare, a supernovaβs cry:
βI was here, I shone, and I learned how to fly!β
Shine on, young star. π
