[Chorus]

I just wanna thank you (I just wanna thank you)

I wanna thank you

I just wanna thank you (I just wanna thank you)

I wanna thank you

[Verse]

Time moves slow but doesn't wait for everybody

Lighting every room you the heart of every party

Lemme address it, 99 a blessing

Tryna get it off it's another 100 questions

Love unconditional gon' never learn my lesson

Stood the test of time even through all the oppression

How can I thank you, try to repay you

Even in your old age you always had to stay true

You raised a generation, that's my inclination

Every kid you brought on up contributes to the nation

Must be very proud that's gotta bе a sensation

Well I'm very proud that wе even have relation

It's not about the journey, it's about the destination

You even faced it all from Jim Crow and segregation

And you love us all even without hesitation

I gotta be great cuz i have your association

[Refrain]

How could I ever forget you (how could I ever forget?)

I'm living in the moments

[Chorus]

I just wanna thank you (I just wanna thank you)

I wanna thank you

I just wanna thank you (I just wanna thank you)

I wanna thank you
