Bring Your Own Sunshine
(Verse 1)
Woke up this morning, sky painted in gray
Thunder was rollin’, tryin’ to wash me away
But I ain’t made of paper, I ain’t built to fold
I’ve been through the fire, now I shine like gold
(Verse 2)
People runnin’ for cover, heads hangin’ low
Waitin’ on blue skies that refuse to show
But I don’t need savin’, I don’t need a sign
‘Cause deep in my heart, there’s a light that won’t die
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, you can stand in the dark, you can hide from the rain
But life’s too short to be stuck in the pain
So I’ll step outside, lift my face to the sky
Let the raindrops dance while the sun’s in my eyes
(Chorus)
I bring my own sunshine, don’t need no blue sky
Storm clouds can gather, but they won’t dim my light
I got a fire that the rain can’t drown
You can’t keep me under, I won’t stay down
Oh, I bring my own sunshine, I bring my own shine
(Verse 3)
Had my share of heartache, had my fair share of loss
Every tear was a lesson, every bridge had a cost
But I ain’t sittin’ ‘round waitin’ for a break
I make my own, let the whole world shake
(Verse 4)
Oh, I’ve heard the whispers, I’ve felt the doubt
But I never let the storm put my flame out
Lightning can strike, the river can rise
But I’ll keep dancin’ under wild skies
(Chorus – Repeat with More Power!)
I bring my own sunshine, don’t need no blue sky
Storm clouds can gather, but they won’t dim my light
I got a fire that the rain can’t drown
You can’t keep me under, I won’t stay down
Oh, I bring my own sunshine, I bring my own shine
(Bridge – Big & Uplifting, Like a Gospel Choir Behind It!)
No silver lining, no wish on a star
The strength that I need’s been inside from the start
I don’t need permission, I don’t need the time
I just need to know that this life is mine
(Instrumental Break – Electric Guitar Solo with Bluesy, Soaring Notes 🎸🔥)
(Verse 5 – Slower, More Reflective)
Now I see clearer, the past fades away
Ain’t waitin’ on miracles to brighten my day
The road may be rocky, the sky may be torn
But I’ve got my own sun, and I’ll weather the storm
(Verse 6 – Build It Up!)
So let the wind blow, let the dark clouds roll
I ain’t runnin’ scared, I’ve been here before
The harder the rain falls, the stronger I stand
I don’t need an umbrella, I got fire in my hands
(Pre-Chorus – Repeat with Extra Soul!)
Oh, you can stand in the dark, you can hide from the rain
But life’s too short to be stuck in the pain
So I’ll step outside, lift my face to the sky
Let the raindrops dance while the sun’s in my eyes
(Chorus – Big, Bold, and Victorious!)
I bring my own sunshine, don’t need no blue sky
Storm clouds can gather, but they won’t dim my light
I got a fire that the rain can’t drown
You can’t keep me under, I won’t stay down
Oh, I bring my own sunshine, I bring my own shine
(Outro )
Yeah, I bring my own shine… oh, I bring my own light…
Rain don’t bother me, I’m burnin’ too bright…
Yeah, I bring my own sunshine… I bring my own shine…
