About

“Thank You” is a letter to her biological father, whose absence enters her mind at various milestones in her life.
“[…]is about my dad and how getting bullied in elementary school. I went to an all-white school and thought my lips were too big.” – Diana’s interview to Noisey.

Thank You Lyrics

[Chorus]
I wanna thank you, for you makin' life so tough for me
And I want to thank you, for wakin' me up never let me sleep
And I wanna thank you, for makin' life so hard for me, yeah
And I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you, oh

[Verse 1]
I don't remember what you look like
But that's okay these days I'm doing alright
Thought of you when I had my graduation
Even though we never had a conversation
I didn't let it affect me
I never needed a man to protect me
I ain't mad, I ain't sad, I'm alright
Yeah I'm okay, it's gonna be alright
I got plans ain't gonna waste my life
And ain't no tears here in my eyes
Ain't no need to apologize

[Chorus]
I just wanna thank you, for you makin' life so tough for me
And I want to thank you, for wakin' me up never let me sleep
And I wanna thank you, for makin' life so hard for me
And I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you, hmm

[Verse 2]
Always knew you didn't like me
Always seem to forget to invite me
The little Tom Boy, shoes too tight
If I was wrong then, now I'm so right
And I hope you had a good laugh
I know I'm not the only one with a rough past
When I close my eyes, I know that I'm blessed I'm alright

[Chorus]
I wanna thank you, for you makin' life so tough for me
And I want to thank you, for wakin' me up never let me sleep
And I wanna thank you, for makin' life so hard for me
And I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you

[Bridge]
I'm wide awake and I can see
I'm everything I'm meant to be
I wouldn't do it differently
I wouldn't no, I wouldn't no
I'm wide awake and I believe
So much love inside of me
I wouldn't do it differently
I wouldn't no

[Chorus]
I wanna thank you, for you makin' life so tough for me
And I want to thank you, for wakin' me up never let me sleep
And I wanna thank you, for makin' life so hard for me
And I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you

[Outro]
I wanna thank you, for you makin' life so tough for me
I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you
