[Intro]
I just wanna make you proud of me
[Verse 1]
Spent all my life chasing moments
Wish that I would've moved slow
Now I'm falling, but I'm going nowhere
And I'm taking all the things I know
[Pre-Chorus]
The life I had planned is over
Don't know what I'm gon' do now
You were meant to be in every moment
Now I gotta start again somehow
[Chorus]
And I just wanna make you proud
Now that you're not around
I promise I'll take care of mum
'Cause that's what you would have done
And make you proud of me
[Verse 2]
Running from myself
I don't think it's healthy
But I would run the whole world just
To feel like you're still with me
And pretend that one day
I'd have a family
And you would still be here
To watch them grow with me
[Pre-Chorus]
But the life I had planned is over
Don't know what I'm gon' do now
You were meant to be in every moment
Now I gotta start again somehow
[Chorus]
And I just wanna make you proud
Now that you're not around
I promise I'll take care of mum
'Cause that's what you would have done
And make you proud of me
[Verse 3]
I just want you back now
I just want you back
Give all that I have to
See you smile again
I know you did the best with everything you had
And I'll carry you with me
I really miss you, Dad
[Chorus]
And I just wanna make you proud
Now that you're not around
I promise I'll take care of mum
'Cause that's what you would have done
And make you proud of me
[Outro]
Of me
Like I'm proud of you
I'm so proud of you
