Do I Make You Proud?
Taylor Hicks                                       This is what we dream about
                                                   But the only question with me now, is do I
                                                   make you,
I’ve never been, the one to raise my hand
                                                   Do I make you proud?
That was not me, and now that’s who I am
Because of you, I am standing tall
                                                   This is what we dream about,
                                                   But the only question with me now (But the
My heart is full of endless gratitude              only question)
You were the one, the one to guide me              Is do I make you proud? (Is do I make you
through                                            proud?)
Now I can see, and I believe,                      Stronger than I’ve ever been now (Stronger
It’s only just beginning                           than I’ve ever been)
                                                   Never been afraid of standing out (Never
                                                   been afraid of…)
Chorus:
                                                   But do I make you proud?
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
                                                   This is what we dream about (This is what
Is do I make you proud?                            we dream about)
Stronger than I’ve ever been now                   But the only question with me now (But the
                                                   only question)
Never been afraid of standing out
But do I make you proud?                           Is do I make you proud? (Is do I? Do I?)
                                                   Stronger than I’ve ever been now (Stronger
                                                   than I’ve ever been)
I guess I’ve learned, to question is to grow
                                                   Never been afraid of standing out
That you still have faith, is all I need to know
                                                   (Do I make you proud?)But do I make you
I’ve learned to love, myself in spite of me        proud? (Do I?)
And I learned to walk, on the road that I
believe
                                                   This is what we dream about
                                                   But the only question with me now, is do I
Repeat Chorus                                      make you,
                                                   Do I make you proud?
Everybody needs to rise up
Everybody needs to be loved
To be loved
