Huron Father Walks

(Verse 1) Yo, I’m from Huron, California, where the sun shines bright, But my childhood was more than just day and night. My dad was my hero, my guide, my light, Walking me to school, making sure I was alright. We’d hit the park, play games, have a blast, Father and daughter, making memories to last. But as I grew up, things got a bit more vast, Teenage years hit hard, and our bond was cast. (Chorus) We were father and daughter, through thick and thin, Through the highs and lows, we’ve been in it. From the best of times to the worst of sin, Our story’s a journey, with love within. (Verse 2) I hit 14, life took a turn, Lost my innocence, and my heart did burn. Dad found out, his world did churn, Our relationship strained, it felt like we’d learn. He struggled with addiction, it tore us apart, I tried to cope, but it was hard to start. I smoked and drank, trying to numb the hurt, But then I moved out, my life took a new chart. (Chorus) We were father and daughter, through thick and thin, Through the highs and lows, we’ve been in it. From the best of times to the worst of sin, Our story’s a journey, with love within. (Bridge) I found faith in church, got my first communion, Met my godmother next door, she gave me some wisdom. But dad and I argued more than ever before, I left with my boyfriend, seeking something more. (Verse 3) Life threw me curveballs, I faced them head-on, Had kids early on, life wasn’t easy at dawn. Abuse came knocking, but I wasn’t gone, I fought for my kids, for a better spawn. I lost them to CPS, but I didn’t give up, Sobered up for them, no more time to slump. I fought for my son back from adoption’s cup, And when I won him back, it was like heaven’s bump. (Chorus) We were father and daughter, through thick and thin, Through the highs and lows, we’ve been in it. From the best of times to the worst of sin, Our story’s a journey, with love within. my father passed away without me even getting a chance to say goodbye he left this world now he fly so high I wonder if he's proud of me now I wonder if he sees me cry I wonder if he ever wants to hold me when I feel alone at night is he proud of me now does he feel bad inside knowing that he let me down all those years when I don't know you're looking
