I know things may not Always make sense to you now But hey, What daddy tell you? Straighten up soldier up that upper lip What you about? You got me
Hailie I you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the that I never had I can see you're sad, even you smile, even when you laugh I can see it in eyes, deep inside you want to cry Cause you're scared, I ain't Daddy's with you in your No more crying, wipe them Daddy's here, no more We gon' pull together through it, we do it uncles crazy, ain't he? Yeah but he loves you girl and you better it all we got in this world When it spins, it swirls it whirls, when it twirls Two little girls puzzled, in a daze I it's confusing you Daddy's always on the move, mama's on the news I try to keep you from it but somehow it seems The harder I try to do that, the more 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 as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, your and me But have gotten so bad between us I don't see us ever together ever again we used to be when we were teenagers But then of everything always happens for a reason I guess it was never to be But it's just something we have no over and that's what destiny is But no more worries, rest your head and go to Maybe one day we'll up and this will all just be a dream
Now little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be Stiffen that lip up little lady, I told ya here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not right now and we don't know why We how we feel inside It may seem a crazy, pretty baby But I promise gon' be alright
funny I back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the presents up And 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me daddy couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the night crying Cause felt like a bum, see daddy had a job But his job was to the food on the table for you and mom And at the time every that we lived in kept getting broken into and robbed Or up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar Tryna a piggy bank for you so you could go to college Almost had a thousand till someone broke in and stole it And I it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved On the Chalmers in the flat one apartment And dad moved back to the other of 8 Mile on Novara And that's when daddy to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre And flew you and out to see me But daddy had to work, you and momma had to me you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it And you and were to young to understand it Papa was a rollin' stone, momma a habit 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 all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud Now I'm sitting in this empty house, just at your baby pictures, it just trips me out To see how much you both have grown, almost like you're sisters now Wow, guess you pretty are and daddy's still 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, only gone for the moment
And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a I'mma give you the buy a diamond ring for you I'mma for you I'll do for you to see you smile And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't I'mma break that neck I'll go back to the jeweler who it to ya And make him eat every carat don't fuck dad (ha ha)
