“As a father, it rocked my soul to hold our little ones in this milestone moment, as I could literally feel their proud energy and vibration for their mama singing - they felt it,” he continued. “At these little ages, they don’t understand how meaningful this moment is for our family and how incredibly important the words of this song are to our great country and every American in it.”

Johnson noted, “It’s my job to explain it and teach them one day and as their father I can’t wait.”

Speaking to PEOPLE at the New York premiere of his DC filmBlack Adamin October, Johnson teased that his “superpower” as a dad is that he continues to fall for the pranks his daughters pull on him at home.

“My superpower as a dad is the ability to not figure out why I keep falling for the ‘Daddy close your eyes’ trick and I get peanut butter in the face, my face drawn on, kicked in the nuts,” he jokes. “Everything happens, that’s my superpower.”

Despite being pranked numerous times, Johnson admits he still isn’t in on the joke.

“I’m a fool,” he says. “I don’t understand why I don’t get it.”
