There’s nothing like a father bonding with his daughter. As the world said goodbye to 2016 and welcomed 2017, Chance the Rapper was on Instagram sharing his thoughts about his daughter, Kensli. Because the Chicago native keeps his private life under wraps, this was a special treat for fans.

Here’s what he had to say:

“This is the girl who reintroduced me to God. She’s the woman who reminded me how to be a man, and taught me how to love. She is everything I am but much better. I can’t wait for her to one day help the world the way she has helped me.”

He went on to share the following message for mothers and fathers everywhere:

“Ima cry. Dads know you can’t/won’t get this love anywhere else. We are the chosen few, the responsibility is heavy but duty is an honor. Mothers better know it ain’t one thing in this world we can without you. Thank you to her mother, my mother and God for making all things possible. I can’t wait to get back to this.”
