Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
连大考都竟敢放肆即兴
从未懂谦虚倾听
从不肯小心改正
曾经错对未会望清
而慢慢开始将稚气暂停
现实种种的挑战要适应
如顺景当然高兴
而这种改变今天可见证
这刻我想亲身致谢
往昔你真心的爱锡
从未离开拖紧我 走过黑夜
而使我更学会独立些
这刻我想亲身致谢
你使我的心不再野
陪著成长多得你 我一再感谢
从今天起我真的不撒野
从今天起我 我真的不 撒野

In this moment, she reflects on the importance of the people who have loved and supported her throughout her growth, especially during tough times. She thanks them for their love, guidance and patience, and recognizes their impact on her journey towards becoming a better person.

18歲，人生交叉點，分數決定未來，童年拜拜，沒有時間嬉戲玩鬧，工作成為了人生的一大部分，開心亦不再純真，為了三餐奔波勞碌，呢個就系18歲系香港即將要面對既事情

一聽當下覺得曲真耐聽，曲調唱法也是我喜歡的，詞更不用說得深入人心～紫棋早期有很多首歌我覺得都比起現在好聽得多，當然現在的創作曲風算是不同歷境的產出了也是很棒的～
