Thank You, Mom - A Son's Gratitude 2
Pop Ballad
[Verse 1] You handed me a box wrapped in sacrifice Said "This will help you build your dreams" A laptop, yeah, but more than keys and screens It's every shift you worked, every prayer at night Mom, I see the tired in your eyes The weight you carry just to watch me rise [Pre-Chorus] I know what it cost you More than just the price You gave me tomorrow When you gave up your tonight [Chorus] So thank you, Mom, for believing in me When I couldn't see past my own doubt You turned your pennies into possibilities It's your son Antonia, and I need you to know Every word I type, every dream I chase Carries the love you showed Thank you, Mom, for everything you gave [Verse 2] I remember you said "Don't you worry, son" But I heard the worry in your voice You made it look easy, like it wasn't a choice Between your comfort and my chance to run Toward a future you built with your hands Now I'm holding it, trying to understand [Pre-Chorus] How you loved me louder Than your own needs could cry You wrote my story In the ink of your sacrifice [Chorus] So thank you, Mom, for believing in me When I couldn't see past my own doubt You turned your pennies into possibilities It's your son Antonia, and I need you to know Every word I type, every dream I chase Carries the love you showed Thank you, Mom, for everything you gave [Bridge] I'll make you proud, I swear on every breath I'll turn this gift into something you can hold Not just success, but proof that all your love Was worth more than silver, worth more than gold You didn't just buy me a machine You taught me what it means to believe [Chorus] So thank you, Mom, for believing in me When I couldn't see past my own doubt You turned your pennies into possibilities It's your son Antonia, and I need you to know Every word I type, every dream I chase Carries the love you showed Thank you, Mom, for everything you gave [Outro] This is from your son, Antonia And Mom, I see you I see everything you've done Thank you... for loving me enough
