[Intro]
In the year of '93, a memory so clear,
A father’s love that pulled me near.
With Kodaks flashing, dreams in hand,
He made a sacrifice, just as he planned.
[Verse 1]
I was just a kid, the world felt so wide,
But scoliosis took me on a ride.
He stood so tall, faced the darkest night,
For my future, he would fight the fight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Late night whispers, promises made,
Through the pain, he never strayed.
With every bruised hand, every drop of sweat,
He gave his all, no regrets, no debt.
[Chorus]
Love through the scars, he lit up the dark,
A heart so big, igniting the spark.
My adopted hero with a soul so bright,
He walked through fire to make it right.
Oh Daddy, I see your sacrifice,
You gave up your world, paid the highest price.
[Bridge]
Six months of healing, troubles began,
A chemical burn, but he was still the man.
Twenty-two years with morphine’s embrace,
His courage, my strength, they’ll never erase.
[Verse 2]
February cold, the day he left me,
The good Lord called, set his spirit free.
But in my heart, his love will abide,
Forever grateful, forever my guide.
[Pre-Chorus]
He answered the call, stepped in my fight,
For the little girl, he’d shine his light.
With every tear, every sleepless night,
He turned my darkness into daylight.
[Chorus]
Love through the scars, he lit up the dark,
A heart so big, igniting the spark.
My adopted hero with a soul so bright,
He walked through fire to make it right.
Oh Daddy, I see your sacrifice,
You gave up your world, paid the highest price.
[Outro]
So here I stand, with a heart so wide,
In every heartbeat, he walks by my side.
Oh Daddy, through the pain and the fall,
I love you so dearly, you gave me it all.
