Ready to Shine - RIOT

The waiting is over

I’m ready to shine

The chains that once held me down

Will no longer bind

I lived with uncertainty

And suffered through pain

Thought I had no control

So I prayed for change

Yeah, I prayed for change

Finally, I realized

The power’s inside

My fears are left behind

I’m ready to shine

I was floating in anger

Adrift in black seas

Always hoping for something to change

Or someone to rescue me

Then one day I raised my eyes

A new door came to light

Found the strength to walk through

Into a new life

Yeah, into a new life

Finally, I realized

The power’s inside

My fears are left behind

I’m ready to shine
