Jeg skrev denne låten våren 2021 etter noen stormfulle år. Jeg skrev låten som et slags brev til meg selv for å minne meg selv på at å gjøre feil og å føle seg på villspor, samt mye mer som jeg synger om å låta, er en del av det å vokse opp.

Da jeg fant ut jeg ville satse på musikken viste jeg, uansett hvor skummelt det var, at jeg skulle gi ut denne låten som min debutsingel. Låten ble da utgitt oktober 2022. Produsert sammen med Johannes Groth.

Jeg håper dere liker det dere hører og at låten kan bety noe for noen.

Tekst:

Vers:
Wipe your tears, little girl.
Get up on your feet again, little girl.
Dry off your dress and sing along,
to your favorite song.

Pre-ref:
Cause you are a soldier,
and you were born with an armor.
You can do this,
don’t let them tell you anything else.

Ref:
You’re gonna break some hearts
You’re gonna lose a friend
You’re gonna fall apart
But that’s not the end
Cause this is the way you grow up.

Vers:
Look in the mirror, little girl.
And see that beauty, little girl.
Take care of yourself till the day you die.
And don’t lose it because of an immature guy.

Pre-ref:
Cause you are a soldier,
and you were born with an armor.
You can do this,
don’t let them tell you anything else.

Ref:
You’re gonna break some hearts
You’re gonna lose a friend
You’re gonna fall apart
But that’s not the end
You’re gonna make mistakes
You’re gonna feel astray
But, you have what it takes
And you’re gonna be okay
Cause this is the way you grow up
Ohh, this is the way you grow up

This is the way you grow up
