I used to chase the light in every room
Laugh too loud, leave too soon
Mama said, “girl, take your time”
But time don’t wait, it just walks by

Bills on the table, dust on my shoes
Some dreams faded, some I still choose

I’m learning how to stand
With both feet on the ground
Not every prayer gets answered
Not every lost thing’s found
I’m learning how to breathe
When the nights feel too long
Yeah, I’m not who I was
But I’m still moving on

Friends turn faces, seasons change
Love feels calm, not wild or strange
I don’t run when it starts to rain
I let it fall, I feel the pain

Scars tell stories I don’t hide
I stopped fighting the current inside

I’m learning how to stand
With both feet on the ground
Life ain’t sweet all the time
But it’s real, no doubt
I’m learning how to breathe
Through the quiet and the noise
I ain’t lost anymore
Just a grown-up girl

Ain’t chasing gold, ain’t begging for fame
Just want peace when they call my name
If I fall, I fall my way
Get back up… another day

Yeah, I’m learning how to stand
Slow steps, steady hands
