Built to Last

Verse

Back in ‘96, two couples said “I do,”

Built a life with love that only grew,

From Reston roads to Round Hill skies,

He’s been paintin’ dreams with steady pride.

Verse

Owns his name, owns his craft,

Built a business that’s built to last,

With Carlyn’s love and Nathan’s grin,

He’s got the kind of life you settle in.

Chorus

So here’s to the man who loves the land,

Country soul and a steady hand,

With good times rollin’ and blessings stacked,

He’s got it all—and never looks back.

Verse

From Los and Raynelle, Elle and Collin too,

The Araque crew’s forever with you,

Raise a glass, let the laughter fly—

It’s your birthday, and you’re ridin’ high!

Chorus

So light that fire, let the music play,

You’ve earned this joy in every way,

With love, with grit, with heart so vast—

Happy birthday, friend… you’re built to last.
