[Verse 1]
Happy Father’s Day, son
Though you’re up in heaven
I still set a plate for you
Still count my blessings
I walk through the day
With your name on my tongue
Heavy in my chest
But I’m still standing strong
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I miss your voice
In the quiet of the room
Still I wear your strength
Like a crown carved from truth
If love is a kingdom
Then you never left home
You built it in my blood
So I won’t walk alone
[Chorus]
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
We rise, we shine
Even through the silence
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
I celebrate you, son
Every Father’s Day, I’m riding
[Verse 2]
I light a candle slow
By the framed-up smile
Tell the kids about you
And they sit a while
Your laugh in the stories
Your fire in my walk
Every scar you left me
Still taught me how to talk
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I miss your voice
In the quiet of the room
Still I wear your strength
Like a crown carved from truth
If love is a kingdom
Then you never left home
You built it in my blood
So I won’t walk alone
[Chorus]
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
We rise, we shine
Even through the silence
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
I celebrate you, son
Every Father’s Day, I’m riding
[Bridge]
If heaven got a table
Save me one red seat
I’ll bring all your memories
Lay them at your feet
Till then I keep going
With your name in my stride
My heart stays with you
And my pride stays alive
[Chorus]
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
We rise, we shine
Even through the silence
Royal like lions
Royal like lions (royal like lions)
I celebrate you, son
Every Father’s Day, I’m riding
