In the quiet of the night under the soft glow of the moon
Your shadow loomed large but you were gone too soon
Mama held the fort with tears hidden in her smile
Said you were a storm and we were calm for a while

In the echoes of your absence I find whispers of love
A longing for a father I've only dreamed of
But the hands of the law and the heart of the world so cold
Keep me from seeking the story that never got told

In the scribbles of my notebook I pour out my soul
Questions unanswered in this role I never chose
Mama's a warrior in her eyes the universe
But in the silence I wonder is this blessing or curse?

Government files cold with barriers so high
A kid just seeking answers but they just deny
Life's a puzzle missing pieces of you
In every step I take in everything I do

Could there be a day when the shadows give way to light?
When the truth isn't locked away out of reach out of sight?
Mama says "be strong love for not all is as it seems
Sometimes the harshest truths are in the softest dreams"

In the echoes of your absence I find whispers of love
A longing for a father I've only dreamed of
But the hands of the law and the heart of the world so cold
Keep me from seeking the story that never got told

But here I stand a product of the love the strife
Mama's resilience it's the soundtrack of my life
Maybe one day the system will let me find
The father in my dreams not just the shadow left behind

In the dance of the shadows in the light of the moon
We find the strength to heal to change the tune
For in every shadow there's a light a new day's dawn
In the love we carry our legacy lives on
