Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Used to wake up heavy in my chest
Scrolling in the dark, couldn’t find my breath
Smiling in the halls, lying through my teeth
Laughing with my friends, breaking underneath
Mama in the kitchen, asking “You okay?”
I would change the subject, try to look away
Therapist appointment I would always dodge
Scared of my reflection, scared of what it was
[Chorus]
Things will change
I’m the proof standing here today
I was lost in a storm and the sky turned gray
But I kept that little spark, now I see the way
Things will change
If you’re stuck, you don’t have to stay
I was sure I would drown, now I ride that wave
If my story is a bridge, you can cross it safe
Things will change, things will change
[Verse 2]
Talking to the mirror like it’s someone else
“Girl, you gotta fight for your future self”
Started telling friends when the nights felt long
Heard “me too” back, I was not alone
Journals on the desk, pages full of tears
Praying in my room through the quiet fears
Learned to love the face I tried to erase
Now I wear my scars like a saving grace (yeah)
[Chorus]
Things will change
I’m the proof standing here today
I was lost in a storm and the sky turned gray
But I kept that little spark, now I see the way
Things will change
If you’re stuck, you don’t have to stay
I was sure I would drown, now I ride that wave
If my story is a bridge, you can cross it safe
Things will change, things will change
[Bridge]
To my people feeling tired in the back of the class
To my sister in her car, fighting tears at the gas
You are not your worst thought, not your hardest day
You are every time you got up anyway (yeah)
[Chorus]
Things will change
I’m the proof standing here today
I was lost in a storm and the sky turned gray
But I kept that little spark, now I see the way
Things will change
If you’re stuck, you don’t have to stay
I was sure I would drown, now I ride that wave
If my story is a bridge, you can cross it safe
Things will change, things will change (oh)
Things will change, things will change (yeah)
