I Matter Lyrics by Britnee Kellogg

She’s Come a Long Way

2024

[Verse 1]
She was a Westcoast ray of sunshine
Soap opera watching queen
She loved old clocks, drank her wine from a box
Had a thousand little figurines
Taught me how to put my make up on
Give my hair the perfect tease
I remember her telling me, "Girl, don't go wearing
Your heart out on your sleeve"
[Chorus]
And it mattered to her that I grew up good
With some self respect like any woman should
Proud of my roots but chasing great big dreams
No, there ain't a day that goes by now
That I ain't trying to make my grandma proud
What mattеrs the most from all those years I had hеr
Was I knew I mattered
[Verse 2]
She had a thing for June and Johnny
A knack for sneakin' Marlboro Reds
She perfected the perfect cinnamon toast
I still taste that buttered white bread
She had grace and grit and the patience of job
And when life went off the tracks
She gave and she gave and she never complained
Didn't matter if she got it back
[Chorus]
And it mattered to her that I grew up good
With some self respect like any woman should
Proud of my roots but chasing great big dreams
No, there ain't a day that goes by now
That I ain't trying to make my grandma proud
What matters the most from all those years I had her
Was I knew I mattered
[Bridge]
Everytime I sing "Ring Of Fire"
I can see her smile
Everytime I see a butterfly
It's like I'm sitting with her for a little while
[Chorus]
And it mattered to her that I grew up good
With some self respect like any woman should
Proud of my roots but chasing great big dreams
No there ain't a day that goes by now
That I ain't trying to make my grandma proud
What matters the most from all those years I had her
Was I knew I mattered
I knew I mattered
