  • I just wanna shine
    Like the sun when it comes up
    Run the city from the rooftops
    'Cause today's gonna be my day
    I just wanna climb
    To the top of a mountain
    Standing tall when I'm howling
    'Cause today's gonna be my
    -day's gonna be my
    -day's, -day's, -day's, -day's, -day's

    Goodnight stress, I'll see you in the morning
    I don't gotta guess, you're always there for me
    Sowing them seeds of doubt
    I think you like seeing me freak out
    Goodnight stress, I'll see you in the morning

    So I wake up
    I get out of bed, and stay up
    Stay out of my head
    'Cause it's dangerous
    And I don't wanna lose my mind, no

    I just wanna shine
    Like the sun when it comes up
    Run the city from the rooftops
    'Cause today's gonna be my day
    I just wanna climb
    To the top of a mountain
    Standing tall when I'm howling
    'Cause today's gonna be my day

    I used to lay low, hiding in the shadows
    So don't give me dark days, I already had those
    I'm just tryna figure out how to be myself right now
    I don't wanna lay low, hiding in the shadows

    So I wake up
    I get out of bed, and stay up
    Stay out of my head
    'Cause it's dangerous
    And I don't wanna lose my mind, no

    I just wanna shine
    Like the sun when it comes up
    Run the city from the rooftops
    'Cause today's gonna be my day
    I just wanna climb
    To the top of a mountain
    Standing tall when I'm howling
    'Cause today's gonna be my day

    I wake up and I
    Stay up 'cause I'm
    Sure good things will happen
    If I get out of my way

    I just wanna shine
    Like the sun when it comes up
    Run the city from the rooftops
    'Cause today's gonna be my day
    I just wanna climb
    To the top of a mountain
    Standing tall when I'm howling
    'Cause today's gonna be my day
