(Verse 1:)
Back when I was just me
You were always there to help me and support my dreams
And you've encouraged me to see (and)
Want so much more out of life
And you said nevermind your fears,
Cause soon they will pass in time
And I want to thank you see cause...

(Chorus:)
All I am and all that I will ever be
Is because of you and I am proud to say
That you you helped me into what I am today
I applaud you for being so patient with me
All I am and all that I will ever be
Is because of you and I am proud to say
No one else could do what you have done for me
You mean the world to me (yeah)

(Verse 2:)
There were times when I was so
Frustrated with you,
I felt I didn't want you no more
But then I realized,
That without you I would be so alone (yeah)
But I chose to deal with you
Whether right or wrong
And I'm so glad I did cause...

(Chorus)

(Bridge:)
See you came and changed my life
You turned and empty heart into a work of art
And opened my eyes to the world
I would have never known, for that I'm grateful
You are my pride and my joy
The closest thing to me next to the God above
And will forever be my first love
And I'm always gonna give my all to you

(Chorus until song ends)
