Illuminate - Courtney Act with Our Lady J
from: Courtney Act ·
Drag Race was an amazing experience I am forever grateful for, but afterwards I got lost in a dark place and it took me a while to find my way out, but I did. The hard times broke me down and I had to rebuild who I was, but in some strange way it was the greatest gift. On the other side I am more balanced, aware and stronger. Life's trials define us in ways that we can not know at the time, the darkness has value and it contrasts the light. Take all those things about yourself you are afraid of, or that people and society have made you feel ashamed about and shine a light on them! Celebrate them, they are the most beautiful things about you. Illuminate!
Here are the lyrics:
By Courtney Act & Our Lady J
Standing here in the pitch black
All alone under attack
How can I find a way back, here in the dark
Falling stumbling I canât see
All I know is itâs hurting me
How can I find the light to turn off the dark
Pre-Chorus
No more can I take
My fear starts to break
I see the light that speaks the truth
Iâve made my mistakes
And now in their wake
I will come through
I will Illuminate
Chorus
My light is not broken
Just look at me glowing
Itâs just the shade you cast on me
My light is not broken
Just look at me glowing
I can shine brighter than you see
Iâve make my mistakes
Now in their wake
I will come through
I will Illuminate
Iâm trapped here in this dark place
Thereâs no walls itâs an open space
Fighting, losing, all I need is a spark
Bit my lip what is that taste?
Blood in my mouth, I donât wanna waste
Have to let go before this hurt leaves a mark
Pre Chorus & Chorus
Through the thrill of chase
Through the broken race
Through the loss of faith
I look up and find my fate
I will not pale
I will not fade
I will ignite
Chorus
