My Foundation - Packy

I just thought that you should know

I just thought that you should know

I just thought that

I just thought that

You should know how much you mean to me

I know I don’t call enough

I know you worried 'bout me, out here all alone

I hope I fall in love

I’ll be alright though, I’m in no hurry

Happy chasing down my dream, I’m getting there, don’t worry ma

I’ma be there someday, I’ma settle down, you wait and see

I’ll be successful if I give back half of what you gave to me

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah I just wanted you to know

You’re my hero ma, you really are, I’m so damn proud of you

And I see Katie doing good, I know she learned a lot from you

Won’t forget the time I caught you crying 'cause I caught you lying

Told me you were laughing, you were always trying to hide it

I thought I was losing you in high school, doctors couldn’t heal it

Told me it might take your health, but it would never take your spirit

You were right, you’re a fighter, you’re the strongest woman I know

Even when I’m far away, you’re everywhere that I go

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah, I just wanted you to know

I could never put a price on what you gave to me

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah, I just wanted you to know

How much I appreciate and you are my foundation

It’s not the life you would have chose for me, I know it’s not

But I’ma still go and make you proud hopefully

I’ll always be the way you raised me

I gotta do it my way though or I’ll go crazy

Lately, I’ve been coming face to face with everything you prepped me for

You might think I don’t, but I remember what you said before

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah I just wanted you to know

You taught me how to be a man, you always treated mom right

Nobody could know the half

You never needed limelight

I learned more than I can put in words just by watching you

Ironic this music is my way to get that across to you, isn’t it?

Since a kid I’ve been listening

Your dad’s been sick for years, you’re like the only one who visits him

I know it’s not easy, his mind is gone and you miss him

But you taught me family is family and mine’s in Michigan and you should know

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah, I just wanted you to know

I could never put a price on what you gave to me

And I just wanted you to know

Yeah, I just wanted you to know

I just wanted you to know how much you mean to me
