Golden State Of Mind

Sunlight on my skin, I breathe it in slow
The ocean keeps the secrets I don't show
Golden reflections in my hair tonight
I'm learning how to glow in my own light

No rush, no race, I move with the tide
My heart beats steady, calm inside
Every scar, a shimmer in disguise
I wear my peace like summer light

I'm my own paradise
Warm like Malibu skies
Everything I need, I find
In this golden state of mind

I'm my own paradise
Warm like Malibu skies
Everything I need, I find
In this golden state of mind

Drifting through the days, no need to pretend
I found the start inside the end
Footprints fade, but I remain
The ocean calls me by my name

No crown, no throne, just peace I choose
In letting go, there's nothing to lose
I close my eyes and realize
The light I sought was always mine

I'm my own paradise
Warm like Malibu skies
Everything I need, I find
In this golden state of mind

I'm my own paradise
Warm like Malibu skies
Everything I need, I find
In this golden state of mind

I don't chase, I attract what's real
What's meant for me is what I feel
Golden thoughts, reflections divine
Every sunset rewrites the lines

I've been waves, I've been fire
I've been silence, I've been desire
Every version of me survived
Every season, I came alive

I'm my own paradise
Warm like Malibu skies
Dreams don't fade, they realign
In this golden state of mind

Waves keep whispering softly my name
Christie, but never the same
I breathe the calm the world can't find
And write it down in California Diaries
