Who I Am Today
I thank the boy who kicked my ass when I was 17I thank tho one who choose to laugh and those who acted meanI thank the bullies for body slams and accidents and then someThey shaped my life, they made me like who I've become
I thank the girls that gave their hands and showed me how to danceI thank the one who laughed and passed and never gave a second chanceI learned that it's okay for some to go and some to stayThey shaped my life and made me love who I am todayAnd I, I know that life is good...
I thank the captains of the boats who brave the seaI thank the farmers for the sowing of the seedsI thank the men who pave the road I'm traveling onThey shaped my life, they took me down the path I've gone
I thank the volunteers for giving up their time for freeI thank the engineers or those who keep our water cleanI thank the janitors for all their years behind the scenesThey shaped my life, they let me see who I could beSo, I know life is good
I thank the galaxy for how it made up gravityI thank the sky above for ocean clouds that float on top of meThey gave me air to breathe and they gave me rain and they gave me snowThey shaped my life, they gave me so much room to grow
I thank the frogs and daddy long legs and the beesI thank the micro-organisms under every treeI thank the fertile soil for the life behind the food I eatThey shaped my life, they gave me possibilityAnd I, I know that life is goodYes, I, I know
I thank the boy who kicked my ass when I was 17I thank the ones who laughed and those who acted meanI thank the bullies for all the names they called along the wayThey shaped my life, they made me love who I am todayThey shaped my life, they made me love who I am today
You shaped my life, you make me love who I am today...
