Hello there my friends. It's good to see you again.
I can't seem to think of what to say
except thank you for treating me that way.
You don't know what I mean?
Maybe a memory will help you come clean...
Think back to a time a few years ago
when all that mattered was who you know.
None of you ever accepted me then
no matter how hard I tried to fit in...
but looking back on that I can see
that the only thing holding me back was me.
Today I want to thank you somehow
because how you treated me then
made me who I am right now.
I remember when you'd laugh so much
push me around and beat me up,
but I just stood there and took the pain
because I knew that someday you'd be repaid.
Life comes back around at you like that...
Looking back on that I can see
that the only thing holding me back was me.
Today I want to thank you somehow
because how you treated me then
made me who I am right now.
Now I'm a better man even though Im barely able to stand.
Jesus Christ is my saviour, though Im undeserving,
and he taught me what it truly is to be a man.
To be a man, you have to be forgiving...
looking back on that I can see
that the only thing holding me back was me.

because how you treated me then
made me who I am right now.
