[INTRO — soft guitar & piano] I thought changing meant leaving everything behind… But maybe change is simply finally seeing what's been inside. [VERSE 1] I spent so many years trying to hold the pieces tight, Trying to make the wrong things right, Trying to keep the peace at night. But somewhere in the silence I heard a voice say, “You don't have to stay just because you've stayed.” [PRE-CHORUS] So I take a breath… And let it go. I don't know exactly where I'm going— But I know I can't stay here anymore. [CHORUS] 🦋 I'm becoming, I'm becoming someone new. Not somebody I don't recognize— Just someone more completely true. I'm releasing what was heavy, I'm opening my heart, And every little change I'm making Is another brand-new start. I'm becoming… And I'm finally becoming me. [VERSE 2] There were dreams I put away because I thought the time had passed, But dreams don't disappear— Sometimes they wait for you to ask. And maybe all those detours weren't mistakes along the way. Maybe they were teaching me to choose myself today. [PRE-CHORUS] I don't need to know the ending. I don't need to see the road. I'll take the next step forward… And trust the rest will show. [CHORUS] 🦋 I'm becoming, I'm becoming someone new. Not somebody I don't recognize— Just someone more completely true. I'm releasing what was heavy, I'm opening my heart, And every little change I'm making Is another brand-new start. I'm becoming… And I'm finally becoming me. [BRIDGE — guitar builds] Maybe the old me was doing the best she could. Maybe she needed love more than she understood. So I won't judge her. I won't turn away. I'll thank her for surviving… And carry her into a brighter day. [FINAL CHORUS — full soft rock] 🌟 I'm becoming, I'm becoming who I am. I don't need to have it figured out— I just need to take a stand. For the life I want to live, For the love I want to give, For the woman in the mirror who is learning how to live. 🦋 I'm becoming… And I'm finally breaking free. I'm not losing who I was. I'm becoming who I'm meant to be. [OUTRO — piano & acoustic guitar] One chapter closes… Another begins. And somewhere between the two… I found myself again. 🦋✨ Missy Marie Karen — let the transformation happen. You don't have to force the butterfly out of the cocoon. Just trust what's becoming.
