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
