[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, uh
Reflection in the mirror, look what I became
From the pain, from the struggle, it's a different game
This one’s for my daughter, she the reason I aim
Rise above the ashes, I’m reborn in her name
[Verse 1]
Started from the bottom, young and lost in the streets
Mom and dad gone, left me to face defeat
Fights in the alley, almost lost my breath
Life was a gamble, every step felt like death
Close calls, many nights feeling the heat
But I survived, yeah, I ain’t accept defeat
Life showed me shadows but I kept moving
Knowing deep down, I got to keep pursuing
Youthful chaos, but I saw the light
Found strength in the darkness, fought for my right
Now I look in my daughter’s eyes, see hope
Teaching her dreams, how to cope, how to cope
Time to turn my story into a legacy
Gotta be brave, gotta be the best for she
The world’s tough, but I’m tougher for her
Every scar, every lesson, I serve to nurture, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
From the streets to the heavens, I believe
Got new eyes, new life, got tricks up my sleeve
She’s my reason, my reason to believe
In a future where we rise and we achieve
[Chorus]
It's a new dawn, I’m reborn for my daughter
Hold her close when the storms get hotter
From the dark, I emerge with honor
Building a future, stripping away the imposter
Love in my heart, hope in my eyes
Living for more, no disguise
Every pain, every fight, now it’s wise
Changed by her smile, I realize
[Verse 2]
Came from struggles, cold nights and rough days
But I learned to find peace in her gaze
Made a vow to turn pain into power
Every minute, every hour, I build her flowers
Street life tried to hold me back
But I rise, never lose track
Lessons learned, now I teach her the truth
In a world that's rough, she’s my youth
With her, I got a reason to stay alive
To give her love, teach her how to thrive
To the sky, I aim, and I pray
Every night, I promise I’ll find a better way
[Pre-Chorus]
From the streets to the heavens, I believe
Got new eyes, new life, got tricks up my sleeve
She’s my reason, my reason to believe
In a future where we rise and we achieve
[Chorus]
It's a new dawn, I’m reborn for my daughter
Hold her close when the storms get hotter
From the dark, I emerge with honor
Building a future, stripping away the imposter
Love in my heart, hope in my eyes
Living for more, no disguise
Every pain, every fight, now it’s wise
Changed by her smile, I realize
[Outro]
Yeah, for her, I do it all
Stand tall, never fall
Love’s the call, the reason I crawl
Gotta protect her, answer the call
From the struggles, to the skies
Her love is my prize
A father’s promise never dies
In her, my future lies
