PRISM LIGHT
(Verse 1)
It starts out simple — sunlight on the floor
But beauty isn’t always what we’re looking for
It hits the glass, and suddenly it breaks
Colors we’ve been hiding dance across the space
You looked at me like something came undone
Not everything’s revealed beneath a steady sun
Some things only bloom in a softer kind of light
And that’s the kind that lives in prism light
(Chorus)
‘Cause light can show the cracks we try to hide
It doesn’t choose a side, it just divides
From the lies we meant as love
To the wounds we rise above
It bends the truth in every line
Reveals the dark, reframes the shine
It’s never only wrong or right
It’s all a part of prism light
(Verse 2)
We talk like we’ve got clarity in hand
But hearts are always shifting like the sand
What feels like faith to me
Might look like doubt to you
And both can still be honest
And still be true
The shadows tend to speak when we’re alone
But even they can soften what we’ve known
Not every light will burn, not every shade is night
But all of it belongs in prism light
(Bridge)
What’s bright to one might be dim to someone else
We call it truth, then question it ourselves
The prism doesn’t lie, it just reframes
The pieces we believed would stay the same
So I’m learning not to rush to choose
Learning to leave a little room
For every voice that sees the world in hues
And every soul still searching for their view
(Final Chorus)
‘Cause light can show the cracks we try to hide
Revealing all the places we’ve denied
From the battles fought in pride
To the softness we confide
It bends the rules and opens wide
The heart, the hurt, the changing tide
You thought it was just black and white
But it’s all there—
In prism light
(Outro)
Yeah, it’s all there...
In prism light
