Rain beats outside my window
The only sound lulling me to sleep
In this dark, cute apartment
I wonder how I might earn my keep
The black shadows hold me close
Keeping me warm when the night burns cold
I create to show my strength
Before my young skin becomes too old
How might the world observe me
When I emerge from this tight cocoon
With a laundry list of dreams
And no history of silver spoons
The light tells me to be brave
Because the dark won't last forever
My journey has just begun
With no ties left for me to sever

Fortune favors the bold
