[Verse 1 – Childhood]
As a child, I knew no distant land.
My father stood—a tall, unshaken stand.
Step by step, I learned to climb,
Chasing dreams where stars shine.
[Verse 2 – School Years]
With curious heart, I went to school,
My father was my steady tool.
I gripped the seat and held on tight,
He pedaled me toward books and light.
[Chorus]
He lifted me in quiet grace,
His shoulders held the sky in place.
His gaze, a sail to send me wide—
No matter how far I may fly,
He stands where home and love abide.
[Verse 3 – Youth]
In youth, I chased the winds of fire,
My father was a slender wire.
Not too loose and not too tight,
He let me soar in open light.
[Chorus]
He lifted me…
[Verse 4 – Immigration]
Then life pulled me across the seas,
His voice came softly through the breeze.
“Take care,” he said—so calm, so spare,
A mountain’s love wrapped in the air.
[Final Chorus – Variation]
Still he lifts me from afar,
Across each ocean, under every star.
Though years have lined his watching eyes,
No matter how far I roam,
His love is where my spirit flies.
[Closing Line]
Father is a mountain, standing tall,
Lifting dreams though oceans call.
Through time and tide, I always know—
He lights my path, he guards my road.
