Lyrics

Title: "Cracked Sunshine"

Verse 1

I started at the bottom,

With a mountain in my way.

Every step was harder,

Every night became a test to face.

They told me I was nothing,

That I'd never make it out.

But every word they threw at me

Just made me stronger now.

I've been through the storms,

I've been through the rain.

I've carried heavy burdens

And learned to walk through pain.

Chorus

I started at the bottom.

Still tryna climb my way up.

Nothin's gonna stop me,

Never givin' up.

Go ahead and push me,

I'll just be where I'm meant to be.

Call me a broken monstrosity,

I'll say I'm a cracked sunshine.

I may be broke in places I can't fix,

But that don't mean I can't be free,

From the lies they all say.

I can still claw my way out of hell,

To reach the gates of heaven.

Verse 2

I'm not made of perfect pieces,

I've got cracks beneath my skin.

But every broken fragment

Shows the battles I survived within.

They can keep their judgments,

They can keep their doubts.

I know the fire inside me

Is what will get me out.

I'm done hiding my reflection,

Done pretending I'm okay.

I'll embrace every imperfection

That helped me find my way.

Chorus

I started at the bottom.

Still tryna climb my way up.

Nothin's gonna stop me,

Never givin' up.

Go ahead and push me,

I'll just be where I'm meant to be.

Call me a broken monstrosity,

I'll say I'm a cracked sunshine.

I may be broke in places I can't fix,

But that don't mean I can't be free,

From the lies they all say.

I can still claw my way out of hell,

To reach the gates of heaven.

Bridge

Maybe I'll stumble,

Maybe I'll fall.

But I've already survived

What was meant to end it all.

The pieces they called worthless,

The flaws they tried to hide,

Are the very things that prove

I'm still alive inside.

Final Chorus

I started at the bottom.

Still tryna climb my way up.

Nothin's gonna stop me,

Never givin' up.

Go ahead and push me,

I'll just be where I'm meant to be.

Call me a broken monstrosity,

I'll say I'm a cracked sunshine.

I may be broke in places I can't fix,

But that don't mean I can't be free,

From the lies they all say.

I can still claw my way out of hell,

To reach the gates of heaven.

Outro

A cracked sunshine...

Still shining anyway.
