If you are meeting with immigration judge, it means that you have been referred for removal (deportation) from USA. If you were brought to the US illegally at age 2 and no one ever petitioned for you, it could mean that you are in unlawful/illegal status.
You need to consult and hire a good immigration lawyer who specializes in removal defense. It's not possible to advise you here based on a very limited information you provided in your post.

If your father is a citizen, you may have derived citizenship and therefore the government cannot deport you. PLEASE CONTACT A LAWYER ASAP! Your father will need to provide documentation of his naturalization and that he is your biological father.
