Turning Red Lyrics

Yo it's Mei Lee livin' life full of pride

13 years old feelin' grown inside

In Toronto streets with her squad so tight

But somethin's changin' yeah overnight

One day she wakes and her world's gone red

A giant red panda's takin' over her head

Emotions run wild can't keep 'em in check

But it's part of her now she's gotta reflect

Turning red when emotions collide

Mei's got a panda that she's gotta hide

But through the struggle she's gonna be free

Learning to love who she's meant to be

Mei's got family tradition runs deep

Mom's got rules that she's tryin' to keep

But Mei's torn between her fam and her friends

Wants to fit in but where does it end?

Four Town's droppin' she's a super fan

Wants to see the concert that's the plan

But her panda's wild makin' things tough

Gotta keep it cool but it's way too rough

Turning red when emotions collide

Mei's got a panda that she's gotta hide

But through the struggle she's gonna be free

Learning to love who she's meant to be

It's all about balance finding that peace

Between the panda's power and the family leash

Mei's breaking through learning her own way

Gotta stand tall there's no need to sway

Grandma steps in tryin' to seal it away

But Mei's done runnin' no more fear today

She's embracing the panda all of her vibes

Red fur and all it's where power resides

With her friends by her side Mei's finding her voice

Livin' her truth it's her ultimate choice

And the panda's not a curse it's a gift

Bringing her strength when the world starts to shift

Turning red when emotions collide

Mei's got a panda that she's gotta hide

But through the struggle she's gonna be free

Learning to love who she's meant to be

In the heart of the panda Mei finds her way

Turning red is where she'll stay

With family friends and her spirit alive

Mei's turning red and she's ready to thrive
