Title: “Shadows in the Sun”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am G
Underneath the city lights, we find our place,
Em F
Running away from the struggles, embracing the chase.
Am G
The sound of music is our only grace,
Em F
In a world that’s constantly shifting base.

(Chorus)
C G
We are the shadows in the sun,
Am Em
The unnoticed, the forgotten ones.
C G
But in the darkness, we find our fun,
Am Em
Our journey has only just begun.

(Verse 2)
Am G
When the world is too much, and we’re feeling low,
Em F
It’s the rhythm and rhyme that give us a glow.
Am G
We rise above, shaking off the sorrow,
Em F
With each note, we’re carving tomorrow.

(Chorus)
C G
We are the shadows in the sun,
Am Em
The unsung heroes, the unknown guns.
C G
But in our music, we find our run,
Am Em
Our symphony will never be undone.

(Bridge)
C G
We are the shadows in the heat,
Am Em
Standing firm, we never retreat.
C G
In our silence, we are complete,
Am Em
To the rhythm of our hearts, we beat.

(Chorus)
C G
We are the shadows in the sun,
Am Em
Invisible, but our journey’s never done.
C G
In our music, we find our fun,
Am Em
We are Empty Mother, we’ve only just begun.
