Whenever I count my blessings, you’re constantly there

Just like when I felt like giving up, you were still there

When I lost hope in life, there you were again

I knew right there and then that I’m blessed

Not only did was happy when I knew about you

Instead a lot of fears came about

The fear of not being able to give you a great future

Anxiety of how I’m going to make sure you’re taken care of

Curiosity of the kind of father I’m going to be to you

Out of all that, in you I found my only true love

I’d never replace you with any other daughter

Your place in my heart is legitimately infinite

I’m out here hustling for you and your siblings

Not that I left home because I was abandoning you

It’s because we can’t all be at home

Daddy’s got to pay the bills

While mommy takes care of the kids

I still owe myself giving you the best education

Not to mention that I want you in the finest schools

You deserve a perfect life

My only true love
