“Hill Jump” — Just Him and Me (Verse 1) He drove that old truck like the world couldn’t tell him no, Dust kicking up behind us, windows down, radio low. I was six, legs swinging, watching his hands on the wheel, He looked over, saw me smiling — that was all he needed to feel. (Pre‑Chorus) There was a hill up ahead, just a bump in the dirt road line, But he knew it made me giggle, so he hit it every time. (Chorus) I’m just like him — Same fire in my chest, same steel in my stance. I carry his stories like echoes that never leave my hands. I didn’t join the army, but I still stand tall and proud, Because I’m his daughter through and through — And I hope I make him proud. (Verse 2) He taught me strength ain’t loud, it’s steady, quiet, real, It’s the way he’d jump that hill just to hear the way I’d squeal. Every lesson he gave me stuck like dust on my skin, And every time life got rough, I felt that truck jump again. (Pre‑Chorus) He said courage comes in moments — small ones shape you most, Like a father hitting a hill for the kid he loves the most. (Chorus) I’m just like him — Same fire in my chest, same steel in my stance. I carry his stories like echoes that never leave my hands. I didn’t join the army, but I still stand tall and proud, Because I’m his daughter through and through — And I hope I make him proud. (Bridge) I walk the world he walked, even without the uniform he wore, His voice is still my compass, his strength my inner core. He didn’t raise a shadow — he raised someone who could stand, A woman forged from loyalty, built steady by his hand. (Final Chorus Echoes on the I love you Daddy I hope I make you proud and a little girl giggling in back ground) I’m just like him — Not a copy, not a shadow, but his fire carried on. His discipline, his honor, his will to keep marching strong. And if he’s watching from the sky above that old dirt road somehow, I hope he sees his daughter rising — And I hope I make him proud. I love you Daddy, I hope I make you proud.
