When I woke up, saw the light, yet I was so small
Giants all around, couldn't reach at all
Always felt behind, a shadow in the hall
Always so small (always so small)
Whoa, oh no, through scraped knees and growing pains
Didn't understand the future, the pouring rain (feeling so small)
But I'm breaking free, gotta find my way
(not so small anymore)
Building on the past, with each and every day
(not so small anymore)
This future's mine to claim, won't be swept away
Leave the past behind
So much more to learn, a path I gotta pave
Now I'm standing tall!
(Now I'm standing tall)
Fast forward, blurry years, chasing down a dream
Chasing a dream, a blurry, shifting stream
Climbing mountains high, building on this team
Building on this team, not a solo scheme!
(Not a solo scheme)
(On a solo scheme)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, late nights fueled by caffeine
Pushing through the doubts, a focused, fighting machine
But I'm breaking free, gotta find my way
(not so small anymore)
Building on the past, with each and every day
(not so small anymore)
This future's mine to claim, won't be swept away
Leave the past behind
So much more to learn, a path I gotta pave
Now I'm standing tall
Looking back one day, with wrinkles and with pride
The journey wasn't easy, but I held on tight (I held on tight)
Breaking free on my way
(not so small anymore)
Building on the past, with each and every day
(not so small anymore)
This future's mine to claim, won't be swept away
Leave the past behind
So much more to learn, a path I gotta pave
Now I'm standing tall
I'm not a child, a voice that's loud and clear
The future's vast and open, conquering every fear
