A Letter to Little Me

Hey little me, with the quiet eyes,

Holdin’ in tears you learned to hide.

You learned too early how to stand alone,

But you kept your heart gold even without a home.

You didn’t know it then, but every bruise would teach

Strength ain’t loud, baby… it’s soft and it’s deep.

You didn’t see it then, but your heart stayed true—

Every hurt you healed made a path to you.

If only you could see me now,

You’d smile at how it all turned out.

I grew from everything you fought through—

I’m the woman you hoped you’d grow into.

If only you could see this peace…

You’d finally know we made it.

Hey little me, you carried too much weight,

Tryna earn love from people who couldn’t stay.

But you built a life with your own two hands—

And you love your girls the way you always wished someone had.

You didn’t know it then, but every bruise would teach

Strength ain’t loud, baby… it’s soft and it’s deep.

You didn’t see it then, but your heart stayed true—

Every hurt you healed made a path to you.

If only you could see me now,

You’d smile at how it all turned out.

I grew from everything you fought through—

I’m the woman you hoped you’d grow into.

If only you could see this peace…

You’d finally know we made it.

If only you could see me now,

You’d smile at how it all turned out.

I grew from everything you fought through—

I’m the woman you hoped you’d grow into.

If only you could see this peace…

You’d finally know we made it.

Rest your little heart—

I’ve carried us this far.

Rest your little heart—

I got us now.
