Still Becoming Someone

[Verse 1]
I found the old receipts inside my winter coat
A little proof of every dare I couldn’t leave alone
The names I bruised, the bridges left to smoke
I won’t pretend I didn’t strike the match or throw the stone

[Pre-Chorus]
But morning keeps its plain, unshaken face
And there’s a road beyond the mess I made

[Chorus]
I’m going to live this life with both hands open
Make a home of what I haven’t broken
Let the past sit heavy, let it tell the truth
I still get to choose what I do
I’m not the worst thing I’ve ever done
I’m still becoming someone

[Verse 2]
I know the shortcut by the liquor store
Know how a quick yes turns to weeks I can’t restore
I’ve watched my good intentions lose their nerve
Now I can feel the urge and let it pass without the turn

[Pre-Chorus]
No grand escape, no clean slate in my hands
Just one small promise I can keep again

[Chorus]
I’m going to live this life with both hands open
Make a home of what I haven’t broken
Let the past sit heavy, let it tell the truth
I still get to choose what I do
I’m not the worst thing I’ve ever done
I’m still becoming someone

[Bridge]
If I stumble, I will name it
If I hurt you, I will face it
No more dressing up the wreckage
As a fate I couldn’t change
I can carry what I’ve learned
Without returning to the flame

[Final Chorus]
I’m going to live this life with both hands open
Make a home of what I haven’t broken
Let the past sit heavy, let it tell the truth
I still get to choose what I do
I’m not the worst thing I’ve ever done
I’m still becoming someone
I’m still becoming someone

[Outro]
One clear choice, then another
I’m still becoming someone
