*Verse 1*
Another trip around the sun, and I’m still here,
Breathing, learning, wiping every fear.
Last year tested me, but I didn’t fold,
Every sleepless night was worth more than gold.
I wasn’t ready, but life didn’t wait,
So I grew faster than I thought I’d create.
From doubt in my chest to fire in my soul,
I’m not the same kid — I’m taking control.
*Pre-Chorus*
If I look back now, I see the grace,
Every closed door made room for new space.
So I’m thankful for the highs and the lows,
‘Cause every chapter is how the story grows.
*Chorus*
*This is my year, I’m writing it now,*
No more hiding, I’m making my vow.
New chapter, new page, new fire inside,
Birthday today, but the journey’s still wide.
*This is my year, I’m claiming it strong,*
I was quiet before, but now I belong.
New chapter, new name, new heights to climb,
11th May — it’s my time.
*Verse 2*
Work dey call, dreams dey shout louder,
I’m done playing small, I’m becoming bolder.
The plans I made quiet in the dark,
Now they dey rise, ready to spark.
I’m not rushing, but I’m not stalling,
Every step I take is me standing tall.
If I stumble, I rise with lessons learned,
‘Cause growth is the reason my engine burns.
*Verse 3*
I used to measure myself by the crowd,
Now I move silent, but my results loud.
No more chasing clout, no more fake smiles,
I’m building legacy one mile at a time.
People go talk, let them talk their own,
I’m focused on the seed I’ve already sown.
When it blossoms, they’ll see why I stayed,
Why I prayed, why I worked, why I played.
*Verse 4*
This year I’m betting on me, no cap,
No more waiting for luck to fall in my lap.
Admission, money, peace, and pride,
I’m chasing the life that I want inside.
If I fall, I fall forward, that’s the rule,
Every mistake is just another tool.
And if I win, I go share the light,
‘Cause success feels better when it’s not a fight alone.
*Bridge*
I’m not afraid of starting small,
‘Cause every tall building had a foundation wall.
I’m not afraid of being alone,
‘Cause sometimes solitude builds the strongest throne.
So here’s to the nights I cried unseen,
Here’s to the dreams that kept me keen.
*Chorus x2*
*This is my year, I’m writing it now,*
No more hiding, I’m making my vow.
New chapter, new page, new fire inside,
Birthday today, but the journey’s still wide.
*This is my year, I’m claiming it strong,*
I was quiet before, but now I belong.
New chapter, new name, new heights to climb,
11th May — it’s my time.
*Verse 5*
11th May, I’m stepping in bold,
Younger than yesterday, wiser than old.
The things on my mind are mine to create,
No more waiting, I’m deciding my fate.
If the world says no, I go say watch me,
If the road gets hard, I go outwork it.
This is my moment, this is my sound,
Birthday today, but I’m going around.
*Outro*
So here’s to growth, here’s to the fight,
Here’s to another year
Another trip around the sun, and I’m still here,
Breathing, learning, wiping every fear.
Last year tested me, but I didn’t fold,
Every sleepless night was worth more than gold.
I wasn’t ready, but life didn’t wait,
So I grew faster than I thought I’d create.
From doubt in my chest to fire in my soul,
I’m not the same kid — I’m taking control.
*Pre-Chorus*
If I look back now, I see the grace,
Every closed door made room for new space.
So I’m thankful for the highs and the lows,
‘Cause every chapter is how the story grows.
*Chorus*
*This is my year, I’m writing it now,*
No more hiding, I’m making my vow.
New chapter, new page, new fire inside,
Birthday today, but the journey’s still wide.
*This is my year, I’m claiming it strong,*
I was quiet before, but now I belong.
New chapter, new name, new heights to climb,
11th May — it’s my time.
