Daddy, you are my shadow, you are the one
I tried to hide from, but nowhere to run
In the quiet of the night, you whispered fear
Left marks on my heart that never disappear
You darkened my days, you clouded my sky
I grew up in shadows, wondering why
You were supposed to lift me, to hold me up high
But you cast a shadow I can't deny
Years went by, but I carried the weight
Of dreams you shattered, of promises fake
Your voice lingers, like a ghost by my side
Turning moments of hope to nights I cried
You darkened my days, you clouded my sky
I grew up in shadows, wondering why
You were supposed to lift me, to hold me up high
But you cast a shadow I can't deny
I tried to forgive, to find my peace
But pieces of me still feel incomplete
I'm haunted by the love I sought in vain
The echoes of your words bring back the pain
Daddy, you are my shadow, the darkness I knew
In my last breath, I still feel you too
Though I wanted the light, you stayed by my side
Daddy, you are my shadow, until I died
