The dawn awakens with a soft embrace
A chance to breathe, to see the sky
Though shadows linger from the night before
The light is ours, we just must try
A moment comes, the world seems gray
The road ahead feels steep and high
Yet in our hearts, the spark remains
It's up to us to soar or sigh
We paint the day with colors bright
Or leave it bare in shades of rain
The brush is ours, the canvas wide
It's we who choose the joy or pain
The winds may howl, the storms may come
But we decide to dance or run
The power's not in what we face
But how we stand when all is done
No fortune grants us lasting peace
No magic potion sets us free
The joy we seek is born within
A quiet choice, a calm decree
We build the castles of our dreams
Or tear them down with careless hands
Happiness, like gentle streams
Flows where we shape its shifting sands
In every laugh, in every tear
We hold the power, we hold the key
To turn the lock and let it in
The joy we own, our destiny
So as we walk this winding road
Let’s carry hope, let shadows flee
For in our hearts, the truth remains
The light of happiness starts with me
