[Verse 1]
Baby, I was broken
Still I showed up whole
Carried my own thunder
While I held your soul
I got ghosts in my pockets
Old hurt in my hands
But I kiss your forehead
And I learn to stand
You came in so tiny
Tubes and beeps and light
Fifty-seven mornings
You still chose to fight
I watched you grab that life line
Little fist so tight
And I knew in that room
You were born with fight
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m still learning how to be
What you need to see
I’m untying all my demons
So they don’t touch me
And every scar I carry
I will turn to gold
'Cause you deserve a mother
Who can let fear go
[Chorus]
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
You were loved in that room
You were loved in that world
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
Fifty-seven days
And you still held on, girl (still held on)
[Verse 2]
You are soft and holy
You are fire and grace
Tiny mouth, big destiny
Written on your face
I see it when you smile
I see it when you blink
Beautiful like sunrise
On the edge of grief
And I know my shadows
Try to call my name
But I got you beside me
I won’t stay the same
I’m breaking every chain now
Slow, but I am true
'Cause the strongest thing I’ve done
Is keep coming for you
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m still learning how to be
What you need to see
I’m untying all my demons
So they don’t touch me
And every scar I carry
I will turn to gold
'Cause you deserve a mother
Who can let fear go
[Chorus]
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
You were loved in that room
You were loved in that world
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
Fifty-seven days
And you still held on, girl (still held on)
[Bridge]
If the dark gets loud, baby
Hold your head up high
You came through the hard part
Before you knew the sky
And if my hands shake sometimes
Know I’m fighting too
I’m healing for your future
Every breath for you
[Chorus]
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
You were loved in that room
You were loved in that world
Be fearless, my girl
Be fearless, my girl
Fifty-seven days
And you still held on, girl (still held on)
