Verse 1
Dusting off a frame from nineteen ninety-one
A smile captured bright beneath a younger sun
No shadows of the sickness had ever crossed my door
Just a girl who hadn't met the storms she had in store
Everything was simple, the colors were so clear
I didn't know the meaning of a complicated tear
Chorus
But many things have come, and many things have passed
Some were built to break, and some were built to last
I’ve walked through the fire, worn a heavy crown
Through a million different ups, and a million different downs
My name is Sherin, and the story isn't done
Life must continue, moving with the sun
Verse 2
The years rolled by like rivers, taking parts of me away
I fought the bitter nights just to find the light of day
People came and left their marks, the seasons turned to gray
There were times I wasn't sure if I would be okay
But the rhythm of the heart keeps a steady, quiet beat
Even when the path is rough beneath my weary feet
Bridge
Now I’m looking at a picture from twenty twenty-six
A face marked by the journey, built of mortar and of bricks
There are lines around my eyes, but a lightness in my soul
After all the broken pieces, I'm finally feeling whole
Yeah, I look into the lens and I know that I am fine
Still standing in the present, still walking down the line
Chorus
'Cause many things have come, and many things have passed
Some were built to break, and some were built to last
I’ve walked through the fire, worn a heavy crown
Through a million different ups, and a million different downs
My name is Sherin, and the story isn't done
Life must continue, moving with the sun
Outro
Through the highs and the lows
That's just the way it goes
I'm okay, I'm still here
Past the sickness and the fear
My name is Sherin...
And life must continue.
