Lyrics

[Verse]

Wake up every morning eyes on the prize

Got the power in my hands no more disguise

Check the numbers write 'em down it's my fight

Feeling strong and bold take it step by step

[Chorus]

Take charge shine bright every single day

You got the strength within to pave your way

No fear no doubt you're gonna find

A brighter path ahead with a clear mind

[Verse 2]

Counting carbs like a pro watching what I eat

Balance meals feeling strong never miss a beat

Exercise is my jam moving to the groove

Living life to the full got nothing to prove

[Bridge]

Every challenge faced with a smile

One step at a time it's all worth the while

Health is gold and I'm the king

Living life like a rockstar ready to sing

[Chorus]

Take charge shine bright every single day

You got the strength within to pave your way

No fear no doubt you're gonna find

A brighter path ahead with a clear mind

[Verse 3]

Late nights are gone I sleep just right

Mind and body in tune under the moonlight

Track my progress celebrate the wins

Strong and unstoppable where life begins
