Maybe I make things a mess

And maybe you′re right to have doubts in me

Maybe, but neverthelessIf you for once could just trust me

Just this once let me come through for you

The way that you want me to

Let me make you proud

Let me show you the best in me

Let me give you a reason to believe that I can stand tall

And when I return

And I'm more than you dreamt I′d be

Maybe then you will realize

That you never actually knew me at all

Sure, I've made lots of mistakes

I know that I've disappointed you

Still, though, whatever it takes

I′m gonna fix it, just watch me

Just you wait, I′ll make it up to you

If it's the last thing I ever do

I will make you proud

I will make you have faith in me

I will prove that the way I used to be is all in the past

I will save the day

And come back here triumphantly

′Cause I long for that look of surprise

When you see your son rising at last

The pride in your eyes

When you see your son rising at last
