The Day I Became a Dad (soft piano / ambient guitar intro) Verse 1 (Clean) White hospital walls and quiet lights A thousand thoughts racing through my mind Every second felt like years Standing there fighting tears Your tiny cry broke the air Like the answer to a prayer And when they placed you in my arms The whole world stopped right there Pre-Chorus In that moment I finally knew My life was never mine to lose Chorus (Big / Emotional) The day I became a dad Was the day my whole world changed A tiny heartbeat in my hands Nothing would ever be the same Every dream I used to chase Suddenly felt so small Because the moment I saw your face You became My everything My reason for it all Verse 2 (Clean) Your fingers wrapped around my hand Like you already understood That every step I take from now Is to give you something good I swear I saw forever In the softness of your eyes And every fear I ever had Faded in that cry Pre-Chorus And every road that lies ahead Is one I’ll walk for you instead Chorus The day I became a dad Was the day my whole world changed A tiny heartbeat in my hands Nothing would ever be the same Every dream I used to chase Suddenly felt so small Because the moment I saw your face You became My everything My reason for it all Breakdown (Heavy / Protective) (music drops heavy) I SWEAR RIGHT HERE I SWEAR RIGHT NOW NO MATTER WHAT THIS WORLD BECOMES I’LL STAND MY GROUND EVERY STORM EVERY FIGHT EVERY SHADOW IN THE NIGHT I’LL BE THE WALL BETWEEN YOU AND THE DARK WITH EVERY BEAT OF MY HEART BLEGH. Final Chorus (Huge / Emotional) The day I became a dad Was the day my whole world changed A tiny heartbeat in my hands Nothing would ever be the same Every dream I used to chase Finally made sense after all Because the moment I saw your face You became My everything My reason for it all Outro (Soft) One tiny cry in a quiet room And suddenly I knew What I was born to do. Be your dad.
