[Spoken Intro] People know Big Toy. They don't know me. [Verse 1] I learned to wear a fearless face Before I knew what courage meant Built my home on borrowed words Trying to fit where I was never meant Some nights I still meet younger me Standing quiet in the hallway light He doesn't know we're gonna make it So I hold his hand tonight [Pre-Chorus] Every wrong turn drew another map Every goodbye packed another bag I thought I was leaving pieces of myself behind Now I know [Chorus] I'm every version of me The ones who cried, the ones who believed Every dream that almost slipped away Still lives inside of me I'm every version of me The lost, the loved, the in-between I didn't lose who I used to be He walked this road with me [Verse 2] They tried to teach me who to love Like hearts could follow someone else's plan But every stone they threw behind Only helped me learn to stand I'm still the boy who looks for stars Every time the sky turns dark Now I wear my truth like open arms Instead of hiding who I am [Bridge] Maybe growing never meant Saying goodbye forever Maybe every version waits Like old photographs Folded safely in our pockets Not forgotten Just carried differently [Final Chorus] I'm every version of me Every scar, every victory Every mountain, every open door Made a little more of me I'm every version of me Still becoming, still set free And if tomorrow writes another page I'll thank the man who brought me here [Outro] Maybe that's what growing really is Not leaving ourselves behind But carrying every version of who we were With a little more kindness
