The line in question is at 1:58 ish.
Here's what I've got so far but the one line I can't figure out is in bold and italics:
I see you clearer than I did back then
With softer eyes and a steadier lens
You carried weight you never made known
You did the best you could with what you were shown
You didn't have maps, you didn't have light
Just faith in your steps through long hard nights
I know now the cost of the road you'd begun
You walked through the fire so I could run
No blame in my voice
No weight in my hands
Just gratitude, deep,
As I now understand
Thank you for walking so I could run
For holding the ground 'til my time had come
Thank you for standing when standing was hard
For giving me roots, for shaping my heart
I see you now, I know what you've done
You gave me the strength before I was strong
Thank you for walking so I could run
This life I'm living is because of your love
Some dreams were quiet
Some plans stayed small
Some doors stayed shut,
Some I could open wide
You taught me courage without a sound
How to keep moving when hope runs out
I take the wisdom, I leave the pain
I bless the past without wearing the chains
What you couldn't finish I carry with grace
Not to erase, but to honor your place
I rise without guilt, I move without fear
Your strength cleans all the light in here ???
Your strength lives on, alive, in here ???
Thank you you for walking so I could run
For holding the ground 'til my time had come
Thank you for standing when standing was hard
For giving me roots, for shaping my heart
I see you now, I know what you've done
You gave me the strength before I was strong
Thank you for walking so I could run
This life I'm living is because of your love
I don't rewrite your story in shame
I speak your name with honor, not pain
Your sacrifice didn't disappear
It cleared the way and brought me here
Thank you for walking so I could run
For choosing love when the road was rough
Thank you for giving all that you had
You did your best and that was enough
I move ahead with peace in my hands
Grounded in truth I now understand
Thank you for walking so I could run
I carry you forward, healed, not undone.
