I am growing into who I'm meant to be
(Verse 1) I'm standing in the mirror, searching deep, For someone I can finally call my own. Beneath the heavy promises I keep, I'm building up a life of flesh and bone. It hurts to peel away the hidden lies, To break the mold they tried to press me in, And meet the quiet wonder in my eyes, As I begin to step outside my skin. (Chorus) And I am growing into who I'm meant to be, A fragile, fierce, and undeniable me. It hurts to change, it hurts to find the truth, To shed the heavy armor of my youth. I want to heal, I want to learn and rise, And look at tomorrow with clearer eyes. (Verse 2) The road is long, the questions never end, I stumble on the steps I try to climb. I’m looking for a sister and a friend, To help me make it through the shifting time. They say that transformation takes a toll, That shedding what you were will leave a scar, But every bit of beauty in my soul Is leading me to find out who we are. (Chorus) And I am growing into who I'm meant to be, A fragile, fierce, and undeniable me. It hurts to change, it hurts to find the truth, To shed the heavy armor of my youth. I want to heal, I want to learn and rise, And look at tomorrow with clearer eyes. (Verse 3) I want to better every single day, To mend the parts that carry too much pain. To wash the doubt and bitterness away, Like flowers drinking in the spring-time rain. I’m learning how to offer grace to me, To forgive the fear that kept me underground, And walk into the fullness of being free, Where peace and self-compassion can be found. (Chorus) And I am growing into who I'm meant to be, A fragile, fierce, and undeniable me. It hurts to change, it hurts to find the truth, To shed the heavy armor of my youth. I want to heal, I want to learn and rise, And look at tomorrow with clearer eyes. (Verse 4) The storm is loud, but I am standing tall, No longer hiding in the shadows cast. I'm breaking down the barriers and the wall, And leaving all the heavy dark at last. My heart is open and my steps are sure, The woman in the glass is finally true— More honest, and more beautifully secure, In everything I am and mean to do. (Chorus) And I am growing into who I'm meant to be, A fragile, fierce, and undeniable me. It hurts to change, it hurts to find the truth, To shed the heavy armor of my youth. I want to heal, I want to learn and rise, And look at tomorrow with clearer eyes.
