Intro]
Yeah…
This one’s for my girls,
Frejay and Oakland.
Daddy’s gotta leave for a little while,
but listen close…
I’m coming back.
[Verse 1]
Got my bags at the door, got my boots on the floor,
Tryna hold back these tears as I look at you both.
I’m headed to basic, gotta answer the call,
But leaving my daughters is the hardest part of all.
Frejay, my baby, come give Daddy a hug,
Oakland, my sunshine, you’re the reason I’m tough.
I might be far away, but I’m never gone,
Every step that I take, you’ll be right in my heart.
[Chorus]
I’ll be back, baby girls, I promise you that,
No matter how far, I’m coming right back.
When you miss me at night and you wonder where I am,
Look up at the sky—I’m looking at it too, understand?
Miles can’t break what we built from the start,
I’m carrying both of your names in my heart.
This ain’t goodbye, just a little time apart,
Daddy’s coming home—I promise with all my heart.
[Verse 2]
There’ll be days I’m exhausted, nights I wanna quit,
Missing your hugs, every laugh, every little bit.
But I’ll think of your faces when the training gets hard,
You two are my strength, you’re my reason to march.
Frejay, keep smiling, keep chasing your dreams,
Oakland, keep shining brighter than the stars seem.
And if you ever feel like Daddy’s too far,
Put your hand on your chest—I’m right where you are.
[Bridge]
Don’t count the days that Daddy’s gone,
Count the days till I’m walking back home.
One day those boots will walk through our door,
And I’ll hold you both tighter than ever before.
[Final Chorus]
I’ll be back, baby girls, I promise you that,
I’m leaving for now, but I’m coming right back.
Frejay, Oakland, remember this truth:
Daddy loves you more than you’ll ever know.
No distance, no time, no road can change that.
I’m your Daddy forever…
And Daddy will be back.
