Pre-verse:
Where am I going?
Who am I?
What does it take for me to fly?

Chorus:
I'm Don Ambler's granddaughter, the spitting image of my father, I'm innocent and opinionated, just looking for answers to life

Verse 1:
Every time I fall
I stand tall as
I get back up
I'm willing to jump then fall
Nothing can bring me down
I got a good life around me

Bridge:
But when I forget who I am
I sing these words: I'm Don Ambler's granddaughter, got the spitting image of my father, I'm innocent and opinionated, looking for answers.
I may not know everything in my future but I know who I am.
I got a good mother and brother who'd do anything to keep me safe
I'm loved
I can't control everything in my life
So when things start spinning
I gotta remember it's these things in my life that keep me winning
I've gotta everything I need
How could I ever want more because: Chorus: Chorus:
I'm Don Ambler's granddaughter, the spitting image of my father, I'm innocent and opinionated, just looking for answers to life

Verse 2:
I just want to believe
I wanna achieve
My life's not perfect
But I know I can do anything I want
You can't taunt me
I may not have everything figured out but I know who I am

Cuz: Chorus:
I'm Don Ambler's granddaughter, the spitting image of my father, I'm innocent and opinionated, just looking for answers to life

No one can who I am away from me
No can make my family and friends deny me
No can say they know what's best for me
No one knows me better than my friends and family
This is who I am


The author's comments:
My piece is inspired by the song "Rosemary's granddaughter". I love what she explains in her song. Don Ambler is my music teacher. I'm a junior in high school and I've had him since I was in 5th grade. He considers me like a granddaughter because he has no other family. He considers his students like family. My grandpa died when I was little so I never met him. Mr. Ambler is like a grandpa to me. The closest thing I have to one.
