Sometimes I say things I don't mean
Get petty over stupid things
I should learn when to stop
Sometimes I tend to hold a grudge
I don't forgive, I just give up
I should learn to let things go

And I know that you
You know that I'm gonna make mistakes
That lessons don't get learned without rain
But what if I don't learn enough?

I just want you to be proud of me
I'm gonna be who I'll be eventually
Might have some growing pains
But I swear I'll get there someday
I just want you to be proud of me

Mm, mm, proud of me
Mm, mm

You don't need to count my flaws
I've got a list of what I'm not
And lately that list goes on and on (oh)
I wish that you could see the truth
I'm only tryna change for you
All I want is what you want (ah-oh)

I just want you to be proud of me
I'm gonna be who I'll be eventually
Might have some growing pains
But I swear I'll get there someday
I just want you to be proud of me

Someone that you smile when you think about
Someone that you call when you're feeling down
Someone that you always wanna be around
Someone that you, someone that you
Someone that you smile when you think about
Someone that you call when you're feeling down
Someone that you always wanna be around

Please be proud of me
