A Song for Zuriah

Oh what it’s like for a father to raise his boy Grow to be a man, well it fills him with so much joy Sittin’ on the floor while you play with all your toys Your imagination grows every day and it makes me proud to say Oh zuriah, you are a rida I’m always by your side and nothing ever will divide us Oh zuriah, keep your head up higher Don’t ever let it down unless it’s time to say goodnight son For you baby boy, I would do anything I will give you all my energy because you are my everything I’ll show you all I know, and then let’s learn some more Communicate thru mind, learn to fly and start to soar It’s crazy how your dream is to build a spaceship Cuz that’s been my dream, ever since I was a kid To be the first to shake hands with beings like e t Ask abuelita, she’ll agree that I was very unique Now son you come to me, telling me all these things At the age of three, very conscious yes indeed Euphoria inside, as my eyes start to tear “Let’s explore the Universe”, that’s what you say with no fear Oh what it’s like for a father to raise his boy Grow to be a man, well it fills him with so much joy Sittin’ on the floor while you play with all your toys Your imagination grows every day and it makes me proud to say Oh zuriah, you are a rida I’m always by your side and nothing ever will divide us Oh zuriah, keep your head up higher Don’t ever let it down unless it’s time to say goodnight son For you baby boy, I would do anything I will give you all my energy, you know you are my everything Don’t ever feel alone, even when I’m gone I’m always in your heart, we are one Don’t ever feel no pressure son, I love you for who you are Whether you’re askin’ for spare change or livin’ like a rockstar I only hope that you never judge me for my wrongs I only wish that you love and live your own song That you try your best, never give up and stay true Always help another whenever you can too I’m your number one fan no matter what it is you do Trust and believe mijo, I do this all for you Oh what it’s like for a father to raise his boy Grow to be a man, well it fills him with so much joy Sittin’ on the floor while you play with all your toys Your imagination grows every day and it makes me proud to say Oh zuriah, you are a rida I’m always by your side and nothing ever will divide us Oh zuriah, keep your head up higher Don’t ever let it down unless it’s time to say goodnight son If you can dream it, you can do it Just believe it, and you will prove it I want you to know that you are my whole reality And I wanted you to have this for all of eternity And in case there comes a night I don’t get to say Goodnight, sweet dreams, I love you son
