I'm looking back on everything that I have done
And I can't help but feel overcome with sincere pride in my decisions
I'll disregard all of my mistakes and regrets;
Forgive me if I do forget to note your contributions
Because without you I couldn't do half the things that I have done
It's just that lately I've been overwhelmed
With this thing we've called growing up
So here's to you and everything you ever said,
Every word inside my head, I owe it all to you
I know I never can fully repay you,
But my hope is that this song will just have to do
I know this is the hardest part of my life
I swear I'll make it all up to you in time
