Find The Sun

I was just 12

On the bus

Coming home

From a camp

Where they said Jesus saves

That I'd never

Really feel love

Without first being afraid

And god I was afraid

I wish someone told me its ok

To just be myself find my own way

I hope you'll be free

A little faster

Find peace in yourself

Not a pastor

Trust your gut

Not a father

Who condemns

Feel the love

Of a woman or a man

See the beauty of the body

You're given

There's not

A rule book for living

Move away

Call your sister

Find the sun

Claim it back

Celebrate who

You've become

24 now and in

12 years I've found

It's the people

Who raised you who failed

I wish I could

Show them

And help them get out

I know it must hurt to let go

I need you to know, it's ok

To just be yourself, find your own way

I hope you'll be free

A little faster

Find peace in yourself

Not a pastor

Trust your gut

Not a father

Who condemns

Feel the love

Of a woman or a man

See the beauty of the body

You're given

There's not

A rule book for living

Move away

Call your sister

Find the sun

Claim it back

Celebrate who

You've become

If you think you'll be alone

It's overwhelming

To leave what you know

But I swear it's worth it

Cause

One day you'll be free

A little faster

Find peace

In yourself

Not a pastor

Trust your gut

Not a father

Who condemns

Feel the love

Of a woman or a man

See the beauty of the body

You're given

There's not a

Rule book for living

Move away

Call your sister

Find the sun

Claim it back

Celebrate who

You've become
