I Stopped Shrinking to Fit lyrics

I used to fold myself smallerTo fit inside the space they gave meAdjusted my volumeAdjusted my edgesAdjusted everythingAnd one day I noticedThe shape I'd been makingWasn't my shape at allIt was theirsI stopped shrinking to fitStarted taking up the room I'm owedI stopped shrinking to fitStopped carrying a weight that wasn't mine to holdIt didn't happen loudlyIt happened one morning before anyone else was upI stopped shrinking to fitAnd for the first time I felt big enoughIt's not that the world got smallerIt's that I got correctly sizedI stopped measuring my worthBy how little space I occupiedAnd the people who needed me smallNoticed the changeAnd some of them stayedAnd some of them didn'tAnd both were okayI stopped shrinking to fitStarted taking up the room I'm owedI stopped shrinking to fitStopped carrying a weight that wasn't mine to holdIt didn't happen loudlyIt happened one morning before anyone else was upI stopped shrinking to fitAnd for the first time I felt big enoughBig enough to be wrongBig enough to not explainBig enough to disappoint someoneAnd not fall apart from the strainI stopped shrinkingAnd kept goingI stopped shrinkingAnd kept goingThat was the whole of the glow-up
