Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
This one ain’t for the people who doubted me
Ain’t for the streets
Ain’t for the past
This one’s for you
[Verse 1]
I know one day you’ll be older, looking back at who I was
Trying to understand the reasons, trying to separate the dust
You’ll hear stories about the struggle, hear the things I lived through
But I hope when you think of me, you remember what I gave you
I wasn’t always perfect, I was learning while I raised
Trying to turn a broken history into something you could praise
Had my own demons chasing me, my own wounds I couldn’t hide
But every time I thought of quitting, you gave me another side
You became the reason I started thinking past the day
Made me want a better future, made me change the way
I looked at strength, looked at pride, looked at what a man should be
I stopped living just for me the day you started watching me
[Hook]
For my daughter
I’ll build something that lasts
Something bigger than the scars
Something stronger than the past
For my daughter
I’ll keep walking through the strain
So you never have to carry
All the pieces of my pain
If I leave you anything
Let it be more than my name
Let it be the proof
That you can rise above the flame
[Verse 2]
I don’t want you thinking love means staying where you hurt
Don’t confuse somebody’s promises with proving what you’re worth
Don’t let anybody break you then convince you that you’re weak
And don’t ever trade your peace just to keep somebody pleased
I want you knowing failure ain’t the opposite of strong
Sometimes losing something painful is what finally moves you on
Sometimes family lets you down, sometimes friends become a lesson
But your value never changes with another person’s presence
If you’re scared, take a breath, let the world slow down
You don’t gotta have the answers just because life gets loud
Stand your ground when it matters, walk away when it’s wise
And remember being kind never means closing your eyes
[Bridge]
You don’t have to become me
You don’t have to carry me
Take the good
Learn from the bad
And build something better
[Verse 3]
One day I won’t be there for every question that you ask
That’s why I’m trying now to leave you more than stories from the past
I want habits, I want lessons, want a foundation you can trust
Want you seeing what rebuilding looks like when a man refuses dust
I want you chasing every dream they tell you is too high
Want you knowing where you came from without letting it decide
Who you love, what you build, where you go, or what you earn
Take the wisdom from my scars without repeating what I learned
And if the world gets heavy, if you ever lose your way
Remember there was nothing you could do to make my love decay
No mistake could make me leave, no distance make it small
You were never just a chapter
You were the reason for it all
[Final Hook]
For my daughter
I’ll build something that lasts
Something bigger than the scars
Something stronger than the past
For my daughter
I’ll keep walking through the strain
