The video opens with a title card, declaring the video “A Celebration of our Princess,” followed by a quote from Bobbi Kristina.

“I hope you feel my love, pain, beauty, agony at times, blessings all the time. No one understands me. And I don’t expect them to, but I will try to spread my love and my story through words and this blessing of a powerful voice mom has given me,” the quote read.

The video continues, featuring family photos of Bobbi Kristina with her parents throughout her life, as Houston’s “You Were Loved” plays in the background.
