Lyrics

I remember those car rides, just you and me
Talkin’ ‘bout everything from cartoons to history
You’d fill the air with all your thoughts
And I’d just drive slow and enjoy the talk

We’d play some Fortnite, quote Sandler movie lines
You made those lazy days feel fine
Strong willed with a soft spot, that was your way
And somehow it still is today

Now you’re packin’ up for a brand-new start
With paint-stained hands and a kind, bold heart
He’s a good one, your heart is with his
But if you need to hear it, hey, you got this

You’ve always been tough, kind, and smart
With a joy that could light up the dark
You’re ready for life, love, and all of the twists
So from me to you, just know, you got this

You got this

You wore a dress and a black belt too
Could throw a punch, then paint the sky blue
You camped in rain, you ran in snow
And brought more joy than you’ll ever know

You’re the first to take off, the first to go
And we’ve loved every minute, watchin’ you grow
So this ain’t sadness, it’s pride, I guess
‘Cause lettin’ go’s part of doing our best

Memories of you in the front seat
Watchin’ the world through your own color scheme
You’re grown now, but you’re still part of me
You don’t need my hand to stand on your feet
But I’ll always save you a spot
Right here in the front seat

Now you’re startin’ out with your heart in his hands
And I’ll be right here, proud as I am
Not every dad gets a kid like this
So I’ll say it again, girl, you got this

You’ve always been brave, bold, it’s true
The world’s gonna love the grown-up you
When the race gets long or the path starts to twist
You’ll find your stride, yeah, you got this

You got this

Go light the spark, go lead the crowd
Do what you do, make us proud
And if it ever gets tough or starts to twist
You know where we are, and you got this
