6 My Talent

[verse 1]
I paint the sky in shades of neon blue. You only see the mess upon the floor. My melodies are screaming out the truth. You lock the windows and you bolt the door. I find a rhythm in the pouring rain. You tell me that I need a steady hand. You try to wash away my purple stain. You never try to truly understand.

[chorus]
You see a shadow where I see the light. You hear a noise while I hear a song. We are two stars colliding in the night. I am the right note in a world of wrong. You want a daughter built of stone and clay. I am a fire burning bright and wild. You turn your head and look the other way. You cannot see the magic in your child.

[verse 2]
The piano keys are dusty from your fear. I play the chords you told me not to touch. The music is the only thing I hear. You say I always ask for far too much. My notebook pages overflow with dreams. You see a waste of time and ink and soul. Nothing is ever quite the way it seems. I am the part that makes the broken whole.

[chorus]
You see a shadow where I see the light. You hear a noise while I hear a song. We are two stars colliding in the night. I am the right note in a world of wrong. You want a daughter built of stone and clay. I am a fire burning bright and wild. You turn your head and look the other way. You cannot see the magic in your child.

[verse 3][rap]
One day the world will know my hidden name. They will applaud the things you tried to hide. I do not need your glory or your fame. I only need the strength I feel inside. So keep your silence and your heavy heart. I will keep dancing through the open flame. My life is meant to be a work of art. I will not let you make me feel ashamed.

[chorus]
You see a shadow where I see the light. You hear a noise while I hear a song. We are two stars colliding in the night. I am the right note in a world of wrong. You want a daughter built of stone and clay. I am a fire burning bright and wild. You turn your head and look the other way. You cannot see the magic in your child.
