Once a shadow in the crowd
Fading out, head down and proud
But now the lights, they see my face
I'm no longer out of place
Whispers turned to silent cheers
The reflection now clears my fears
A stranger in the mirror stands
With life unfolding in their hands
A stranger in the mirror, but I recognize the smile
The world is looking different, it's been a while
Every glance, every turn, I feel alive
This new face, it's how I thrive
Step by step, the world has changed
Attitudes have rearranged
Doors once closed now open wide
No longer do I need to hide
I wear the mask of newfound grace
But inside, I know this face
From fear to strength, I've come so far
Now I shine like a rising star
A stranger in the mirror, but I recognize the smile
The world is looking different, it's been a while
Every glance, every turn, I feel alive
This new face, it's how I thrive.
