Verse 1 Sun barely up, house still quiet Coffee cold, phone shaking in my hand Two pink lines in a bathroom mirror Life don’t ask if you ready, man I been drawing futures in playbooks Trying to time every step just right Funny how God laughs at calendars And rewrites your whole damn life You say my name like you scared I pull you close, say “Look at me” I see fear, I see strength I see everything we’re about to be ⸻ Pre-Chorus I been trained for chaos Audibles, broken plans But nothing prepares you For a moment that rewrites who you are ⸻ Chorus Sooner than we planned But it feels damn real Bigger than the noise Bigger than the deal I been chasing legacies Under Friday night lights Now I’m staring at forever In your eyes Yeah, sooner than we planned But I ain’t scared this time ⸻ Verse 2 Mama voice in my head Daddy lessons in my spine All them talks about responsibility Just turned from theory into life I thought pressure was stadiums Thought weight was the game This heavier—but it’s holy This one carry my name You say, “What if this changes everything?” I say, “Yeah… that’s kinda the point” Ain’t no playbook for this moment Just a promise and a choice ⸻ Pre-Chorus I could panic, I could fold I could blame the timing, the world But I ain’t built to run from storms I’m built to stand and lead, girl ⸻ Chorus Sooner than we planned But it don’t feel wrong This ain’t killing dreams It’s writing a stronger song I been trying to prove I’m ready To crowds, to coaches, to fans Now I just gotta prove it Sooner than we planned ⸻ Bridge I don’t know every answer Don’t know how it all plays out But I know I’m not leaving I know what love’s about If legacy means anything It ain’t trophies in a case It’s showing up every day And putting family first place ⸻ Final Chorus Sooner than we planned Yeah, life moved fast But I won’t let fear Turn this into regret I ain’t perfect—but I’m present I ain’t got it all mapped But if this is what forever is I’m all in—no looking back ⸻ Outro (Soft exhale.) Yeah… Guess growing up don’t wait on permission.
