There were a lot of tears I had to cry through A lot of battles left me battered and bruised Now I was shattered to have my heart ripped in two I was broken, I was broken, There were a lot of times I stumbled and crushed When I was only years down to my last chance So many times when I was so convinced that I was over, I was over But I had to fall yeah To rise above it all I'm grateful for the star Made me appreciate the sun I'm grateful for the wrong ones Made me appreciate the right ones I'm grateful for the pain For everything that made me break I'm thankful for all my scars 'Cause they only made my heart Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful Grateful I was thinking I was trying to end out From all the pain that was weighing me down I pulled it together and I pulled myself out Learned a lesson, learned a lesson That there's a life you gotta go through hell, yes But that's what got me strong, I got no regrets And I've got only love, got no bitterness I count my blessings, count my blessings, yeah I'm proud of every tear, 'cause they got me here I'm grateful for the star Made me appreciate the sun I'm grateful for the wrong ones Made me appreciate the right ones I'm grateful for the pain For everything that made me break I'm thankful for all my scars 'Cause they only made my heart Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful Grateful There is nothing I would change, Not even one mistake I made I got lost, found myself, found my way I'm grateful for the star Made me appreciate the sun I'm grateful for the wrong ones Made me appreciate the right ones I'm grateful for the pain For everything that made me break I'm thankful for all my scars 'Cause they only made my heart Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful Grateful You know that I'm grateful, You know that I care No time for the wrong ones, I'll always be there Grateful Grateful, grateful I'm grateful Grateful, grateful Oh, I am Grateful Oh, I am grateful
