[Verse 1]
You didn’t think I saw you cryin’
(Ahhh—yeahhh)
But I saw the fight inside your eyes
All the quiet ways you keep on risin’
Even when the world ain’t kind (mm-hmm, I see you)
---
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t need to wear a crown
(To shine bright, to shine bright)
To be someone worth holding down
(Ahhh, I got you now…)
---
[Chorus]
I’m proud of you — ohhh, yeahhh
More than you know (more than you know)
For all the times you stayed
When you could’ve let go — ahhh
For the battles you never let show
I’m proud of you — ohhh, yeahhh
Just so you know (just so you know)
---
[Verse 2]
You doubt yourself, but you keep givin’
(Ahhh—still you rise)
You light the dark and just keep livin’
Through the noise and through the mess
You still show up and give your best (yes, you do)
---
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re not perfect, that’s okay
(That’s okay, yeahhh)
You’re still amazing every day
(Ahhh, you really are…)
---
[Chorus]
I’m proud of you — ohhh, yeahhh
More than you know (more than you know)
For every step you took
When it felt too slow
For the pain you carried alone
Ahhh — I’m proud of you
Yeahhh — just so you know
(So proud, so proud, ahhh…)
---
[Bridge]
You don’t need the world to cheer
(I’m right here — I’m right here)
Every fall, every rise
I see the fire in your eyes — yeahhh
(Ahhh… I see it burn…)
---
[Final Chorus]
I’m proud of you — woahhh, don’t you forget
You’re a quiet kind of brave, yeah — no regrets
Knowing you, loving you, standing with you
Ohhh — I’m proud of you
Yeahhh — always proud of you
(Yeah, yeah, yeahhh… ahhh…)
---
[Outro]
(Ohhh, ahhh…)
You’ve come so far
You’re still shining
I’m proud of who you are — yeahhh…
