The track offers a raw and tender glimpse into the journey of fatherhood from artist Tofa (Tofa Netane), capturing the profound mix of pride, love, and bittersweet emotion that comes with watching a child grow. The song was originally conceived when Tofa was asked by his brother to compose a piece for his niece's graduation, leading him to craft a moving narrative from a father’s point of view.
"This song came from a very real place," says Tofa. "My brother asked me to write something for his daughter, and I immediately saw it through a father's eyes. It's about that journey of holding on, letting go, and the quiet truth that no matter where she goes in life, she will always be on my mind."
The single boasts a notable production pedigree, with Ricardo Barclay producing and Robert McMichael handling engineering duties. The final mix was shaped by Mix Producer George Pjevach, and the track was mastered by Reuben Cohen of the renowned Lurssen Mastering Studio.
“Always On My Mind” will be available on all major digital streaming platforms on September 25, 2025.
