I was just a kid in a worn-out shirt Chasing dreams down a sunny street Mom said: Just be you, let the colors blur With scraped-up knees and bare feet Late nights on the roof, watching stars align Talking 'bout our futures over sips of lime Every laugh and tear, they built my frame Holding tight to names I'll never change Faded polaroids, memories in my mind Learning to accept, leaving fears behind Growing up so slow, but I'm finding my way With hope in my heart, I'm here to stay Remember first crushes in the schoolyard sun Whispers in the hall, oh, what a thrill Promises we made, oh, we were young Time slips away, but the laughter's real Bonfire nights, we carved our names In the hearts of the flames, nothing feels the same Chasing down horizons, futures wide and bright I'm devoted to this journey, day and night And as the seasons change I'll hold on tight Every step I take Is a step toward light With every scar, I learn to shine In the chapters of my life, I'll be just fine Faded polaroids, memories in my mind Learning to accept, leaving fears behind Growing up so slow, but I'm finding my way With hope in my heart, I'm here to stay So here's to the dreams, the paths we choose To every moment lost, and all the ones we lose With laughter and love, I'll never feel alone In this story of us, I've finally grown Faded polaroids, memories in my mind Learning to accept, leaving fears behind Growing up so slow, but I'm finding my way With hope in my heart, I'm here to stay So here's to the dreams, the paths we choose To every moment lost, and all the ones we lose With laughter and love, I'll never feel alone In this story of us, I've finally grown
