I Said I Love You First

I just really wanna say thank you
Um, for every single thing that everybody does in this room for me
Because I did grow up away from my family
Moving out of Texas, coming here
And all of you have raised me
So many different ways
And challenged me as a person
So I, I have this launch pad
You've all given me 'cause now
I can do so many wonderful things because of this
You've helped me grow up
And watched me grow up
And I really hope that
I won't let you down with everything else that I do
So thank you for being a part of my life
And the beginning of something
I hope lasts a long time
