Brave New Pace

[Intro] Footsteps in bright new light, I rise Shake off the rain, greet the skies [Verse 1] Heavy clouds behind me, I cleared the town The mirror whispers, new sparks in the crown I trade the sorrow for a louder breath stepping forward, I outgrow the night’s own depth [Pre-Chorus] Hold tight to courage, let it carry me New doors widen, I finally see [Chorus] Forward is a flame I keep inside A you-and-me against the tides Starting fresh, I’m stepping into grace Momentum marching on my brave new face [Verse 2] Old weight dissolves in the morning air I write my names where hopes are laid bare With every step, the footprints kiss the dawn I’m moving forward, I’m already gone [Pre-Chorus] Hold tight to courage, let it carry me New doors widen, I finally see [Chorus] Forward is a flame I keep inside A you-and-me against the tides Starting fresh, I’m stepping into grace Momentum marching on my brave new face [Bridge] If yesterday tried to hold me down I’m lifting up, I wear my crown Every setback becomes a spark I’ll chase I’m headed toward the light I taste [Chorus] Forward is a flame I keep inside A you-and-me against the tides Starting fresh, I’m stepping into grace Momentum marching on my brave new face [Outro] So here I stand, with clear-eyed pace A brand-new chapter, a brighter place
