Every second I'm awake
Every bead of sweat I break
Every step it gets heavier, I'm not setting it down.
All the times you sacrificed
All the words of good advice.
I never had to know loneliness because you were around.
I never knew a broken home
never had to be alone
never had to worry about where to turn.
Strength and pride through good and bad.
Giving of everything you had.
I'm happy with who I am and it's because of you.
I'm tired of letting you down.
I'm sick of messing around.
It's over due, it's time that I come through,
And send something back, something back to you.
I know it's not necessary to break even with you
But still I feel obligated.
I know you're with me in everything I do and that's appreciated.
It's all I want, the only thing that means anything to me is you.
The only thing I wanna do is prove myself and make you proud.
