Joelle Hochstedler - Don't Forget Who You Are

We pulled up to the birthday party
I fixed my hair again
As I unbuckled from the car
Dad kissed my cheek and said sweetheart
Don't forget who you are
You're part of a family
Free to try, safe to fail
And though you set out your own you know
You can come back home
I yelled a checklist as we left the house
Backpack, lunch, and books
The bus pulls up and I'm sorry I was sharp
I hug them close and lovingly impart
Don't forget who you are
You're part of a family
Free to try, safe to fail
And though you set out your own you know
You can come back home
Thirty years old and still shifting and changing
My mind about most everything
But always a child of God my grounding
To live, move, and just be
Be part of a family
Free to try, safe to fail
And though I set out my own I know
That I'm part of a family
Free to try, safe to fail
And though I set out my own I know
I can come back home
I can always come back home
Always come back home
