Today, forget the decades lost
Somnambulating through this life.
For every year of being awake,
Let’s add a candle to this cake.

Today, forget the ones who harm,
And ones who’re only standing by.
For every year of friendships baked,
Let’s add a candle to this cake.

Today, forget the learnings lost
By turtling in and playing safe.
For every year of proud mistakes,
Let’s add a candle to this cake.
