Look at me shine
Don’t look at me
Look how I fly
Then look away.
Look at me now:
Up on the stage
In my best age
Shining so bright
In the spotlight.
Feeling the flow
Let all fears go.
Set my light free
All eyes on me.
Then look away.
Don’t look at me
When I am down
Each time I frown
When I feel small
I almost fall
Over my fear
Walking up here
Give me my space
Slow down the race.
Look at me shine
I’m in my prime.
Still fears unfold
I’m not just gold
Don’t see me small
I’ll rise and fall
Learning each day
I’ll find my way.
