Since I Was Little

歌詞

[Verse] 
Since I was little, I had big dreams
 Drawin' maps of the world in worn-out jeans
 Skateboard wheels on a gravel street
 Tryna chase stars with shoes on my feet [Bridge] 
I saw the sky, not just the ceiling
 Held onto hope, even when I stopped believing [Rap Verse] 
Back when the lights were dim, I still glowed
 Built my castle outta cardboard and soul
No silver spoon, just a rusted goal
 But I kept on climbin’ with a heart of gold
 Every scar was a stripe, every fall was a fight
 But I stood back up ‘cause I knew I might [Chorus] 
Since I was little, I’ve been runnin’ this race
 With a wild kind of fire you can’t erase
 Dreams in my pocket, fear in my fist
 Still I never let a moment be missed [Chorus2] 
Since I was little, I’ve been chasing the light
 Even in the dark, I knew I’d be alright
 With every step, I rewrote the riddle
 I’ve been fightin’ for this since I was little [Instrumental Hook, guitar solo] 
(Soulful electric guitar takes center, layered with vocal hums) [Interlude] 
(Child's laughter in the background)
 "Someday... I’ll be someone." [Verse] 
Late nights with a dream and a pen
Wrote stories ‘bout places I ain’t been
 Rain on the window, mind full of stars
 Believin' one day I’d be goin’ far [Verse2] 
Now I’m here, but the kid still speaks
 Whispers in silence when the world feels bleak
Tells me "don’t quit," when the pressure grows
 That little voice still knows where to go [Bridge] 
Can't forget the kid I used to be
 He’s the reason that I still believe in me [Pre Chorus] 
And I hold on, through the highs and lows
 Through the chaos, yeah, that fire still grows [Chorus] 
Since I was little, I’ve been runnin’ this race
 With a wild kind of fire you can’t erase
 Dreams in my pocket, fear in my fist
 Still I never let a moment be missed [Rap Verse] 
Never had much, but I had a plan
 Turn pain into verses, dirt into sand
 Now I’m standin’ where I once just stared
 Feelin’ every beat like the world just cared [Rap Bridge] 
From the gravel roads to these neon nights 
I wrote my path with no end in sight
Got cuts on my heart, ink in my veins
 But I’d walk it again through all the rain [Chorus] 
Since I was little, I’ve been runnin’ this race
 With a wild kind of fire you can’t erase
 Dreams in my pocket, fear in my fist
 Still I never let a moment be missed
