Crescer

How hard to understand what growing up is
To stop being a child, to become a woman
To keep memories of magical moments
Of the beloved doll
Of the hopscotch that remained hidden

Looking at myself in the mirror and seeing myself differently
My body surprises me
The girl left behind
Suddenly, in a glance, makes me feel embarrassed
Waiting for the first kiss and also writing verses

Growing up is not being taller
Growing up is not being stronger
Growing up is not being bigger
It's much more than that

It's being able to go further
With our heart

Knowing how to look inside
To be better each time
Knowing how to look inside
To be better each time

How hard to understand that everything will change
That life will make me grow
And looking back, the girl who changed
And the woman I hope for to walk together
A path without fear

Growing up is being freer
Growing up is seeing beyond
Growing up is being the owners
Of our own dreams

And taking risks
To touch the bottom

To be more alike
Than we actually are
To be more alike
Than we actually are
