A Part of You

I've known one thing growing up
It's that my life's been shaped by you
You're behind everything I am
And everything I hope to do

I hope that with all I've done
I've made you proud of who I am
Because who I am
Is a part of you

Although the mountains may have seemed too high
I watched you conquer every one
When I think of all that you went through
I wonder how you got so strong

I hope that with all I've done
I've made you proud of who I am
Because who I am
Is a part of you

All that I have
All that I've done
All that I am
I owe to you

Now that I am grown and on my own
I'm seeing you through different eyes
I see the sacrifices that you made
To help me live a better life

I hope that with all I've done
I've made you proud of who I am
Because who I am
Is a part of you
