I Choose the Light

Song Title / Album / Artist / Time / BPM

We all have days when life feels heavy—when past struggles, fears, and worries about the future take up too much space in our minds. I found myself caught in that place. Nightmares, old wounds, and anxious thoughts slowly drained my energy and joy. It was like I was living more in the shadows of what was or could be, than in the light of what is.

But one day, I made a decision.
I didn’t want to feel stuck anymore. I didn’t want to keep giving power to things I couldn’t change—the past, or other people’s choices. Instead, I wanted to take back my own power… by choosing how I respond, how I think, and what I focus on.

That’s when this song was born.

“I Choose the Light” is a reminder to myself—and anyone listening—that we can shift. That even when the weight of life pulls us down, we can choose hope, gratitude, and a brighter future. We can choose to walk forward, not backward. To focus on the good, the growth, and the light that still exists all around us.

This song is my personal declaration of freedom—from fear, from pain, from holding on too tightly to what’s gone.
And it’s also a quiet celebration of everything I do have: love, possibility, and the courage to keep rising.

Let this song be your reminder, too.

I Choose the Light

I’ve walked through echoes, silent and long,
Carried the weight of an old, broken song.
But the dawn doesn’t ask who I used to be,
It opens the sky, and sets me free.

Every breath is a quiet new start,
Every step is the beat of my heart.
I am not what once held me down,
I rise where my dreams are found.

I choose the light, I let it in,
I leave the shadows I once lived in.
No more looking over my shoulder in fear,
The path ahead is bright and clear.
I’m moving on with open eyes—
I choose the light, I claim the skies.

I’ve had my nights filled with fear and fight,
But I’ve grown stronger with every light.
No voice of doubt can steal my flame,
I know who I am, I know my name.

I won’t be swayed by the winds of the past,
This moment is mine, it’s here to last.
Grace in my step, peace in my soul,
I’m learning to trust, to feel whole.

I choose the light, I let it in,
I leave the shadows I once lived in.
No more looking over my shoulder in fear,
The path ahead is bright and clear.
I’m moving on with open eyes—
I choose the light, I claim the skies.

There’s beauty in the strength it takes
To rise again when the silence breaks.
I hold the promise of today,
And let the old fade away.

I choose the light, I let it in,
I turn the page, I begin again.
With every breath, I feel the grace—
A brighter world, a softer place.
I’m moving on, I’ve found my rise—
I choose the light. I choose the skies.
