Courage in His Eyes

Echoes of a silent fight, heart heavy, spirits bright

A story of sacrifice, shining through the night

Back in '93, when shadows cast their doubts

Diagnosed with scoliosis, a battle all about

Parents looked with trembling eyes, fearing what would be

But a father's love, unwavering, set my spirit free

He traded shifts in the factory's glow

For extra hours, just to help me grow

Rushed into the burns at his own expense

Fighting through pain, with love immense

Oh, the courage in his eyes, a hero in disguise

Gave up his dreams so I could reach the sky

From chemical burns to a life anew

His sacrifice, forever true

Years went by, the scars remained unseen

A rare disease, a relentless, cruel routine

He fought the pain, stood tall, with a heart of gold

Twenty-two years of courage, stories left untold

In the kitchen, I found my song

From seven years old, where I belong

Now I craft my dishes, pride in every plate

His love still guides me, it's never too late

Oh, the courage in his eyes, a hero in disguise

Gave up his dreams so I could reach the sky

From chemical burns to a life anew

His sacrifice, forever true

Though he’s gone, his spirit lives within the flame

A parent's love, forever in my name

His sacrifice, a gift that made me whole

A legacy of love, carved into my soul

Remembering the fight, honoring his grace

A father's love that time cannot erase

In every step I take, in every breath I breathe

His courage guides me, eternally I'll believe
