Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Charlie? Yes
What are you thankful for?
Um, I'm thankful for having a family
Mmhmm
I'm thankful for having food on my plate every day
Mmhmm
I'm thankful for having a bed to sleep in
Mmhmm
I'm thankful for having a mommy and a daddy
Mmhmm
And I'm thankful for having a family, again, I have a whole entire family
You have a lotta people who love you
Mmhmm
Especially in your family
Mmhmm, yeah
And then I am thankful for hmm, a bunch of stuff really
Yeah? Ok
[Verse 2]
I never said that I had it all figured out
I never said, I never said that I live my days without doubt
I swear, all I've ever done was be honest
And stay modest, oh
[Verse 3]
So this is a sincere, unscripted, unwritten
For all that you've given, forgivin', I'm driven
I wanna be better than I was, better than I am
So I say
[Verse 4]
All I'm tryna say is I thank you
I thank you
All I'm tryna say is I thank you
I thank you
[Verse 5]
All I'm tryna say is I thank you
[Verse 6]
I never said that I was done with my growth
I never said, I never said that I was done doin' the most
And I swear, all I've ever done was stay honest
Keep my promise
[Verse 7]
So here goes my real life, unscripted, unwritten
For all that you've given, forgivin', I'm driven
I wanna be better than I was, greater than I am
So I say
[Verse 8]
All I gotta say is I thank you, whoa
I thank you, oh
All I gotta say is I thank you, whoa
I thank you, whoa
[Verse 9]
Hey, thank you for watchin' me walk 'cross the stage
For walkin' me through my heartbreaks
Thanks for the love every step of the way
With no support, this wouldn't be as great
[Verse 10]
Thank you for making me stronger than most
For takin' it be on my clothes
Thank you for raising your glass when I toast
[Verse 11]
All I gotta say is I thank you, yeah, yeah
Thank you, oh
All I gotta say is I thank you, whoa
I thank you, whoa
[Verse 12]
All I got to say is I thank you
All I got to say
All I got to say
Thank you, really
All I got to say is I thank you
