Who Stole The Sun?

A flower unblossomed 
A petal in my bosom
 A decade older
 But it feels like a century of wisdom 
No one there to guide me
 But the one in my reflection
 And then came a storm of blessings 
Is that God's everlasting light?
 Standing behind closed doors
 Oiling their hinges and joints, they're doing it right
 Because I never felt so free before
 I once thought someone stole the sun
 It was dark and I couldn't see
 Now I realize the sun was never gone 
I was blind because the darkness was in me
