Verse 1
Hey Abby, I see the circles ‘round your eyes,
Long nights, early mornings, still you rise.
You come home tired, hands sore from the grind,
But you’re chasing your dreams with a fire inside.
You don’t complain, you just shoulder the load,
Stand tall in the rain while you walk your own road.
I watch from a distance, but I see it all—
Every time you get back up after a fall.
Pre-Chorus
You learned how to be strong way too soon,
But you wear it with grace like it was made for you.
Chorus
This is what a proud father feels like inside,
Seeing his little girl standing tall with pride.
You grew up so fast, but you did it right,
Still choosing love even when life don’t fight fair.
Yeah, Abby, you’re everything a parent prays for,
Daddy’s little… grown—
And I couldn’t be more proud.
Verse 2
You made Christmas happen when we couldn’t do much,
Found magic in moments, wrapped hope with your touch.
When mom was worn thin, fighting harder than most,
You stayed right beside her—you never let go.
You watched her battle day after day,
And still you kept smiling, still found a way.
You carried the weight without asking why,
Put everyone first, let yourself wait in line.
Pre-Chorus
You learned family ain’t just blood or a name,
It’s who shows up steady when everything shakes.
Chorus
This is what a proud father feels like inside,
Seeing his little girl standing tall with pride.
You grew up so fast, but you did it right,
Still choosing love even when life don’t fight fair.
Yeah, Abby, you’re everything a parent prays for,
Daddy’s little… grown—
And I couldn’t be more proud.
Verse 3
I hate the hurt that deadbeat ever caused,
But I love how you rose when he didn’t show at all.
You didn’t let bitterness harden your heart,
You turned that pain into strength from the start.
And Mauricio by your side, steady and true,
A man who shows up, helps guide you through.
I see the light when he walks with you,
And I thank God for love that protects like it’s supposed to.
Bridge
You were the one who stayed when it was hard,
Showed your mom what real family is, no guards.
You gave when you were empty, loved when it hurt,
Put everyone else before yourself first.
Final Chorus
This is what a proud father feels like inside,
Watching his daughter become her own kind of light.
You grew up so fast, but you stayed so kind,
Still carrying love in a world that’s unkind.
Abby, you’re the daughter I always dreamed of,
Strong, loyal, steady, built out of love.
Daddy’s little… grown, yeah it’s true—
And there’s nothing in this world I’m more proud of than you.
Outro
Keep standing tall, keep being you.
No matter where I am, I’m always with you.
Love always—
Dad.
