Michael actually wrote this song back in 2011 for (me) his father. Little did he know where he would be just 10 years later.
To my son Michael, I thank you for the many years we had together. Althought the lord took you from us, you will never know how blessed I felt to have you in my life. And you my son, well…You taught me more than I ever had a chance to tell you. But, I guess now you finally know.
HERE’S THE SONG:

(Intro)
Verse 1:
I don’t know how, and I don’t know why,
But my father’s love’s endless just like the sky.
I’ve treated him bad, and I’ve put him down,
And he treats me as if he didn’t hear a sound.
He’s there whenever I need help,
Even when he needs it more himself.
He’s always there right by my side,
And I know he’ll be there until the day he dies.
In my eyes, my father’s a king,
‘Cause he’s better than, just about everything.
Where other men, would stumble and fall,
He stands strong, and so god damn tall.
Chrous:
And he keeps on walking that same fast pace,
And wears the brightest smile upon his face.
Nothing could ever bring my father down,
Oh to me he’s a king, and he deserves a crown.
Verse 2:
He might get upset every now and then,
But just a minute later he’s laughin again.
Oh he’s seen heaven, and he’s been through hell,
He’s a full time father, and he does his job real well.
Without my father, I don’t know where I’d be,
Probably dead in a ditch, or hangin’ from a tree.
He always finds the way to open my eyes,
He picks me up when I’m down, and holds me when I cry.
He’s held me up for many many years,
We’ve laughed and played, and cried a grip ‘o tears.
I wanna’ let ya’ know dad, you deserve a throne,
You’ve done more than any king, and ya’ did it all alone.
(Chorus)
