I think I found the perfect song for Catra's redemption arc and it's play by AJ Michalka. If this was on the show, I'll be shedding tears.

Also has spoilers if you haven't seen S3.
(Enjoy)

Catra is lost. She has nowhere to go. She's now given up on the Horde after the terrible decision she has made of nearly destroying the entire planet with a portal.

She has lost the friendship of Scorpia and Entrapta of her pure insanity, and most important of all.......Adora. The stare haunts her dreams almost forever. If only she can make amends with her.

Currently she is walking through the Whispering Woods having no single clue where she's going. She was thinking about going to Bright Moon, but Adora could possibly automatically kill her there.

She thinks she had nothing to lose before, but after that whole event, she had it right in front of her and she is just too blind to figure it out.

She now feels like singing her problems out, which gets her mind to calm down. In her mind she's starts seeing a whole bunch of moments of her and Adora when they were kids and all the way to their pre-adulthood and before they were enemies.

Honestly, its time for honesty
My heart is on my sleeve
So will you hear me out?
I've got nothing left to give of me
I gave up everything
So there is nothing left to lose for me now
Could you forgive me somehow?

I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'd trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord, all I've ever needed was your love

Truth be told, I've made this world my home
I let it steal my soul
But now I want it back
Cause all I need is waiting
In your arms, a place
To hang my heart, where I am known at last
You're the one true thing I have

I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'd trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord, all I've ever needed was your love

And I know that I was meant to be
More than just a melody
I know that you had hopes for me
I hope you still believe in me

I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'd trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord, all I've ever needed was your love
Lord, all I've ever needed was your love

Catra sits down against the tree and starts shedding tears. The song almost made it worse. Thinking about what she's been through makes her burst out crying.

She suddenly hears footsteps as she shoots her head up to see where it comes from. And it turns out it's Adora standing in front of her.

"A-Adora?"

"It's ok."

The feline gets up on her feet as she immediately gives her a hug and cries a little louder.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to......"

"Shhhhhh. I know......I know." She whispers to her ears.

"Y-You're not mad at me?"

"No. I'm not mad at you."

"But......But what about the stare you had at the Fright Zone?"

"I was just a bit frustrated with you, but that's over now."

"Oh. Did you hear me singing?"

"Yes. Yes I did."

Catra's face starts to red. Adora then gives her an unexpected kiss on the forehead.

"I think I forgive you."

Catra starts to tear up again and smiles.

"Come on. You belong with me now."

"Th-Thank you." Catra sniffles.

"Anytime."

The two girls then walk through the woods together.....with them holding their hands.

Here's another video someone with the song made on YouTube with Catra.
It's so beautiful I was crying 😭😭😭😭
