Person I'm Becoming | Sounds of Epoch

There comes a point in life when you look back at the person you used to be and realize you've changed. Not because you suddenly had everything figured out, but because life taught you things you couldn't have understood any other way. LYRICS: [Verse 1] I don't recognize the kid I used to be He wanted everything immediately Thought being strong meant never showing pain Thought every loss was something to be ashamed I made some choices I wouldn't make today Lost some people I wish I could've made stay But every wrong turn taught me something Every goodbye left me with something I'm learning when to speak I'm learning when to leave Learning that forgiveness Don't mean forgetting everything I'm learning not to chase What doesn't want to stay And I'm finally understanding Why I had to change [Pre-Chorus] I'm not who I was But I'm not there yet Somewhere in between I'm becoming someone else [Chorus] I'm becoming The person I was meant to be Still got some growing left Still got some things to see I'm becoming A little wiser every day I don't have it figured out But I'm not the same And I don't need to know Exactly where this road will go I'm just taking every step And letting the old me go I'm becoming... (becoming) The person I'm becoming [Verse 2] I see my parents a little different now I understand some things I couldn't then All those words I thought were just advice Are starting to make sense again I understand that money isn't everything But having enough can change your life I understand that love ain't always easy And being right ain't worth every fight I've learned that friends can come and go And some connections run their course I've learned that being alone sometimes Is better than losing yourself to someone else And I've learned to say “I'm sorry” Without feeling like I lost 'Cause pride can make you win the moment And still make you lose a lot [Pre-Chorus] I'm not who I was But I'm not there yet Somewhere in between I'm becoming someone else [Chorus] I'm becoming The person I was meant to be Still got some growing left Still got some things to see I'm becoming A little wiser every day I don't have it figured out But I'm not the same And I don't need to know Exactly where this road will go I'm just taking every step And letting the old me go I'm becoming... (becoming) The person I'm becoming [Bridge] Maybe growth ain't loud Maybe nobody sees it Maybe it's the way you react When the old you would've lost it Maybe it's choosing peace Maybe it's knowing when to fight Maybe it's calling somebody Instead of disappearing for the night Maybe it's forgiving yourself For everything you didn't know You were only doing the best you could With the person you were then And now you know better So you do better [Final Chorus] I'm becoming The person I was meant to be Still got some growing left Still got some things to see I'm becoming A little wiser every day I don't have it figured out But I'm not the same And I don't need to know Exactly where this road will go I'm just taking every step And letting the old me go I'm becoming... (I'm becoming) More than who I used to be I'm becoming... (yeah) And that's enough for me [Outro] I don't miss everything about who I was. But I understand him now. He got me here. And I'm still becoming. Becoming...
