I Have Figured It Out

I have figured it out 
Last night i smiled in peace 
Cos that was the cost 
Of a long night 
I saw my shadow 
Looking at me 
It looked similar 
Cos it always here with me
When I always thought am alone 
It reminds me that am blessed 
It signification is obvious
Despite the dark night 
I became stronger 
That was the cost of a long night 
That very night you just look 
At your own soul 
And ask yourself who the hell you are 
The answer gave me a smile 
And that was part of the signification
Of my shadow 
Despite the long night 

I have figured it out 
I smile at the sun rise 
Cos after the long night 
I saw the light of the day 
So I realized the rotation 
Of life 
Sometimes it is dark 
Sometimes is give you a light 
And it depends on me to balance
The both energy for my survival
So I smile so deeply again 
Cos I loved the vision of each day 
I saw the dark night 
I saw the rise of the sun 
On same day 
No wonder my shadow keeps 
Looking at me each time 
It is dark 
No wonder am not alone 
Despite the long night 
Of each day 
No wonder I am stronger
On every energy life gives to me 
God bless my soul
