Kira

I remember the days when the anger was loud

Hiding from men, living under a cloud

We opened the bedroom window so wide

Jumping out in the dark, just looking to hide

We were running on fear, just trying to breathe

But you never let the shadows pull you underneath

Kira, you’re a survivor of the deepest kind

Leaving the bitter and the broken behind

Your love is so real, your spirit so sure

A gentle protector whose heart remained pure

I treasure you more than these words can arrange

I'm so thankful you're my daughter, and you never let it change

You always had fire, a rebellious spark

Like the nights you’d steal my car out in the dark

Headlights off, rolling quiet down the street

A survivor with a nature so tender and sweet

You’ve walked through the sorrow, you've carried the pain

But your genuine love will always remain

Kira, you’re a survivor of the deepest kind

Leaving the bitter and the broken behind

Your love is so real, your spirit so sure

A gentle protector whose heart remained pure

I treasure you more than these words can arrange

I'm so thankful you're my daughter, and you never let it change

It takes so much courage to not turn to stone

When you’ve faced down the hardest of days we have known

You stand as a guard for the ones that you hold

But your kindness remained, it never grew cold

You've lost so much, but you still freely give

You show me the most beautiful way to live

Kira, you’re a survivor of the deepest kind

Leaving the bitter and the broken behind

Your love is so real, your spirit so sure

A gentle protector whose heart remained pure

I treasure you more than these words can arrange

I'm so thankful you're my daughter, and you never let it change

I'm so thankful you're here, and you never let it change
