• 7 Years (Rewrite Cover)

Once I was 7 years old
and my mama told me to
be the kindest girl that I could be
Once I was 7 years old

This is a scary world
I didn't let that phase me
We put our brave face on
From the morning til the evening
And by 11 I'd learnt words
That hurt more than bruices
Life is a restless game
We're trying not to lose it

Once I was 11 years old
My daddy told me
My heart had to be the prettiest thing about me
Once I was 11 years old

I've always dreamt so big
And I'ma keep on dreaming
And in a hopeless world
I've always kept believing
I've always kept on breathing
Always kept achieving
despite the sticks and stones
I will not be defeated

Soon I'll be 20 years old
And my brothers told me
To hold the ones who love
Me most so closely
Soon I'll be 20 years old

I wanna make a change
Make this place a little better
We need to live within a world
Where everybody matters
No I dont wanna see
Anyone's sons or daughters
Crying 'cause they dont fit in
With what society has taught them

Soon I'll be 20 years old
And my friends have told me
To keep my chin up
When my tears are streaming
Soon I'll be 20 years old

Soon we'll be 30 years old
What will our lives hold
Will I be satisfied with all that surrounds me
Soon I'll be 30 years old

No matter how old we are
Age is just a number
It's never too late to love
To reach or care for each other
To forgive a brother
Or to find a lover
Live is a mystery
Waiting to be discovered

Soon I'll be 60 years old
My life will be a story
Where my children
Tell their children about me
I'll watch a generation
Rise up to change the nations
The past lays down foundations
For the future celebrations

Soon I'll be 60 years old
Will I be all alone
'Cause I never valued what was
all around me
Soon I'll be 60 years old

Soon I'll be 60 years old
And God will show me
That he was by my side
Through my every heartbeat

Once I was 7 years old
and my mama told me to
be the kindest girl that I could be
Once I was 7 years old
