Chris, you’ve always worn your heart right on your sleeve
Got a depth to your soul that makes people believe
You’re a truly great person, steady and true
And I am so proud to be looking at you
It takes a strong man to care like you do
And let all that emotion come shining right through
ChorusYou’ve got those big feelings, you care from the start
A special young man with a wide open heart
My grandson, my pride, no matter how far
I just want you to know how special you are
I'll keep it real simple, exactly as things are
I'm proud of you, Chris, and I love you, brah
Verse 2Some folks hide away, but you stand in the light
Doing your best to make everything right
I see the kindness in the choices you make
And the beautiful path that you're starting to take
You lift people up when they're carrying weight
And that's exactly what makes you so great
Chorus'Cause you’ve got those big feelings, you care from the start
A special young man with a wide open heart
My grandson, my pride, no matter how far
I just want you to know how special you are
I'll keep it real simple, exactly as things are
I'm proud of you, Chris, and I love you, brah
BridgeThe years keep on turning, the seasons roll by
But family is something that time can't untie
Whenever you need me, I'm right by your side
Just watching my grandson with nothing but pride
Final ChorusYeah, you’ve got those big feelings, you care from the start
A special young man with a wide open heart
My grandson, my pride, no matter how far
I just want you to know how special you are
I'll keep it real simple, exactly as things are
I'm proud of you, Chris, and I love you, brah
Yeah, you're a great person, I love you, brah
