Story behind the song

As cheesy as I get...my wife hates this one but my kids love it so I'm gonna inflict it on you anyway lol. I guess it does have some meaning tho in that so many times we don't open up to our kids.

Lyrics

25 Million

Everywhere I see people earning the money
Living their lives like a drop of emotion
Gotta get the latest trend for the season
Rush past the forests fight for no reason

Just take your shoes off and walk in the breakers
Let a kite fly till it’s touching the vapours
25 million chances to be here
Look to your children cos they are your future

You make me so proud to be your daddy
You’re the best thing I’ve ever done
You make me so proud to be your daddy
You’re the best thing I’ve ever done

Why keep looking for a reason for living
Instead of accepting we’re just lucky existing
All I need is your smiles and your laughter
A promise to love me from now ever after

Just look around you if you wanted a reason
It’s there in your house in the turn of the seasons
25 million chances to be here
Look to your children cos they are your future

You make me so proud to be your daddy
You’re the best thing I’ve ever done
You make me so proud to be your daddy
You’re the best thing I’ve ever done
