Watching You Rise

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some people light a room before they speak a word A kindness in their spirit that the whole world deserves They push through every mountain, never losing faith And everyone around them finds a better way [Chorus] For you I will lay my life on the line Always and forever, here and I Gurl you know I love you no matter what you do Every single breath I take belongs to you [Verse 2] Janelle, I watched you rise and change before my eyes Fifteen hundred classes, girl you claimed that prize You made your body sacred, made your spirit whole And every single one of us was inspired to grow You love me better than I know I deserve And I thank God for you with every single word [Chorus] For you I will lay my life on the line Always and forever, here and I Gurl you know I love you no matter what you do Every single breath I take belongs to you [Bridge] Forty-two looks beautiful on you Janelle Bryant, there is nothing you can't do Your kindness touches everyone you meet You make this world more gentle, more complete [Verse 3] I pray that God keeps blessing every dream you hold The desires of your heart in His hands unfold You transformed your life and showed our family the way So on your birthday, baby, hear me when I say Janelle Bryant, you're the reason that I breathe And I will spend forever giving you all you need [Chorus] For you I will lay my life on the line Always and forever, here and I Gurl you know I love you no matter what you do Every single breath I take belongs to you [Outro] Always and forever, my love is true Happy birthday, baby, this song's for you
