LIGHT IT UP

**Verse 1**
Midnight calling, city glowing,
I can feel the pressure growing,
Every shadow says “turn back,”
But I’m done with living like that.

Heartbeat racing, no more waiting,
I can hear my future saying,
“Take the fear and let it go,
You were born to steal the show.”

**Pre-Chorus**
One spark, one breath,
I’m not afraid of what comes next,
No map, no sign,
But I can see the finish line.

**Chorus**
Light it up, light it up,
Turn the darkness into gold,
I’ve been dreaming long enough,
Now I’m ready to be bold.
Hands up, hearts up,
Let the whole world hear the sound,
If the sky is out of reach,
I’ll build my own way up somehow.

**Post-Chorus**
Oh-oh-oh, we’re lighting it up,
Oh-oh-oh, never giving up,
Oh-oh-oh, feel it in your blood,
Tonight, tonight—
We light it up.

**Verse 2**
They can talk, they can doubt me,
That’s not gonna change the story,
Every “no” became a reason
To become my own believer.

No more hiding in the silence,
No more waiting for permission,
I’ve got fire in my footsteps,
And a dream I won’t forget yet.

**Pre-Chorus**
One spark, one breath,
I’m not afraid of what comes next,
No map, no sign,
But I can see the finish line.

**Chorus**
Light it up, light it up,
Turn the darkness into gold,
I’ve been dreaming long enough,
Now I’m ready to be bold.
Hands up, hearts up,
Let the whole world hear the sound,
If the sky is out of reach,
I’ll build my own way up somehow.

**Rap / Performance Break**
Yeah—
No more “maybe,” no more “someday,”
I’m moving forward my way.
Every setback made me stronger,
Every second made me hunger.

I don’t need a perfect road,
I just need a heart that knows
When the world says “you can’t,”
I say “watch me”—
Now I’m taking my chance.

**Bridge**
If the night gets heavy,
I’ll become the morning,
If the dream feels distant,
I’ll keep moving toward it.

I don’t need the stars to tell me
Who I’m meant to be,
There’s a light inside my chest—
And it belongs to me.

**Final Chorus**
Light it up, light it up,
Turn the darkness into gold,
This is more than just a dream,
This is everything I know.
Hands up, hearts up,
Let the whole world hear the sound,
I was searching for the light—
Then I found it in myself somehow.

**Final Post-Chorus**
Oh-oh-oh, we’re lighting it up,
Oh-oh-oh, never giving up,
Oh-oh-oh, now the whole world knows,
Tonight, tonight—
We light it up.

**Outro**
One spark was all it took,
Now look how far we’ve come.
No more waiting for the sunrise—
**We become the sun.**
