MY HERO; MY FATHER; MY IDOL by Augusto Flameño Monsayac

*MY HERO; MY IDOL; MY FATHER*
by Augusto Flameño Monsayac

Father, I know there were times
I made you feel underappreciated;
There were days I mistreated you
And failed to give you
The respect you deserved.

For you, it's not compulsory
For me to say "Sorry"
For the wrong acts I did to you;
And you are not expecting
Anything in return
For all the good things you do for me.

Refrain:
I wanna say, "Thank You"
And I wanna let you know...

Chorus:
You are my HERO;
You are the one I look up to;
You are the strong pillar of inspiration
in my life;
You are my IDOL;
You are "THE GREATEST DAD" for me;
I am so blessed to be your child;
I am honored that you are my FATHER.

Father, I misunderstood
Your paternal ways of disciplining me;
I resented your being strict
And hated you for not granting
everything I wanted.

For you, it doesn't matter
If I'll consider you
as the "villain" in my world;
For you care more in fulfilling
The obligations and duties
Of a loving and caring "parent".

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus)

Bridge:
I know, it may seem
What I'm telling you now
Does not reflect in my actions
But believe it or not, my father,
"I love you."
I really do.

I wanna say, "Thank you"
And I wanna let you know...

(Repeat Chorus, 2X)

My HERO;
My IDOL;
My FATHER.
