Older

There's a feeling in the air, a weight upon my chest
A little heavy, but I've come to know it best
The ache of growing up, a whisper in my ears
That life is short and precious, and the end is always near
But I can't help but wonder, what happens when I'm older?
Will I find the answers, will I find a place to hold her?
The girl I used to be, the one I couldn't see
Will she be alright, or will she just be me?
Older, wiser, stronger
Will I be the same, or will I be a stranger?
Older, bolder, brighter
Will I find the answers, or will I just be lighter?
I'm not afraid to fall, I'm not afraid to try
To pick myself up, brush the dust off, and fly
But the fear of missing out, it hangs like a dark cloud
What if I'm not ready, what if I'm never proud?
But I can't help but wonder, what happens when I'm older?
Will I find the answers, will I find a place to hold her?
The girl I used to be, the one I couldn't see
Will she be alright, or will she just be me?
Older, wiser, stronger
Will I be the same, or will I be a stranger?
Older, bolder, brighter
Will I find the answers, or will I just be lighter?
Maybe it's all a journey, a winding road to follow
Maybe it's just a matter of time, before I really know
Maybe I'll find the answers, maybe I'll find the way
But until then, I'll keep on learning, and I'll keep on being me
Older, wiser, stronger
Will I be the same, or will I be a stranger?
Older, bolder, brighter
Will I find the answers, or will I just be lighter?
I'm getting older, but I'm still young at heart
And I'm ready for the journey, ready to start
I'll face the fears, embrace the unknown
And I'll find my way, even if I'm all alone
