Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss dad Well I'm but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had I can see you're sad, when you smile, even when you laugh I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you to cry Cause scared, I ain't there? Daddy's you in your prayers No more crying, wipe tears here, no more nightmares We gon' together through it, we gon' do it Laney uncles crazy, he? Yeah but he loves you and you better know it all we got in this world When it spins, when it it whirls, when it twirls Two beautiful girls Lookin' puzzled, in a I know confusing you Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the I try to you sheltered from it but somehow it seems The harder that I try to do that, the it backfires on me All the things growing up his daddy he had to see Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as as he did We did not plan it to be way, your mother and me But things have gotten so bad us I don't see us ever together ever again Like we to be when we were teenagers But then of course everything always for a reason I it was never meant to be But it's just something we have no control over and what destiny is But no more worries, rest your and go to sleep Maybe one day we'll wake up and will all just be a dream
Now hush baby, don't you cry Everything's be alright Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I ya here to hold ya through the night I know not here right now and we don't know why We how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, baby But I promise momma's be alright
funny I remember back one year when daddy had no Mommy the Christmas presents up And stuck 'em under the tree and some of 'em were from me Cause couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget Christmas I sat up the whole night crying Cause daddy felt a bum, see daddy had a job But his job was to keep the on the table for you and mom And at the time house that we lived in Either kept getting broken and robbed Or shot up on the and your mom was saving money for you in a jar Tryna start a piggy for you so you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars till someone in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad it your momma's heart And it seemed like everything was startin' to fall apart Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma back On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on And that's when daddy to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre And you and momma out to see me But daddy had to work, you and had to leave me Then you started daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it And you and Laney to young to understand it Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a And it all happened too fast for one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there and had to it first hand Cause all I ever wanted to do was make you proud Now I'm sitting in empty house, just reminiscing Lookin' at your baby pictures, it trips me out To see how much you both have grown, it's like you're sisters now Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's here Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still I like the sound of that, It's got a ring to it it? Shh, momma's only for the moment
And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a give you the world I'mma buy a diamond for you I'mma for you I'll do anything for you to see you And if that mockingbird don't sing and ring don't shine I'mma break that birdies I'll go to the jeweler who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat fuck with dad (ha ha)
