Hey look, Ma...I made it.

Some days are hard &

Some days are rough.

Some days I don't feel like I'm enough

But hey, look Ma! I made it!

Hey look, Pa...I made it.

I never thought

That this could be...

That I would live past twenty-three.

But hey, look Pa! I made it!

Hey look, Sis...I made it!

Ain't you proud

Of what I done

Ain't you proud of who I've become?

Now look, Sis! I made it!

Hey look, Bro...I made it!

It didn't win!

I took the wheel!

With the darkness gone, I can finally feel!

Now look, Bro! I made it!
