[Intro]
Turning a page, the calendar sighs in glitter and grin
I’m marking my next turn with a wink and a grin
[Verse 1]
Been misfit-marching through the years, but here I am, still here
A goofy crown of self-love, and a toast to every fear I shed
I count the quirks like lucky stars, they guide me, not derail
A heart that learns to laugh at blunders, and sing when mornings pale
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve grown a little taller in the space between doubt and cheer
Gratitude in pockets, friends and family near
[Chorus]
Here I stand, a brighter me, with mischief in my eyes
Grateful for the little wins and warm goodbyes
I lift my glass to the now, to the truth I hold tight
I’m growing, glowing, goofy—and I’m alright
[Verse 2]
I’ve collected tiny victories like stamps in a happy book
Tiny scars are souvenir maps of all the pages I’ve took
Defiant in a friendly way, I’m stepping into light
With laughter as my lantern, I’m turning wrongs into right
[Pre-Chorus]
Thankful for the elders’ wisdom and the chorus of friends
For the late-night talks that stitched me back again
[Chorus]
Here I stand, a brighter me, with mischief in my eyes
Grateful for the little wins and warm goodbyes
I lift my glass to the now, to the truth I hold tight
I’m growing, glowing, goofy—and I’m alright
[Bridge]
If yesterday’s gears creaked loud, today they hum with grace
I’ll keep the spark, the silly spark, in every single space
[Chorus]
Here I stand, a brighter me, with mischief in my eyes
Grateful for the little wins and warm goodbyes
I lift my glass to the now, to the truth I hold tight
I’m growing, glowing, goofy—and I’m alright
[Outro]
So raise a cheer for me, the one who’s learning how to shine
With grateful heart and hopeful grin, I’m stepping into mine
