| Intro: |
| I know sometimes |
| Things may not always make sense |
| To you right now |
| But hey |
| What daddy always tell you? |
| Straighten up little soldier |
| Stiffen up that upper lip |
| What you crying about? |
| You got me |
| Hailie I know you miss your mom |
| And I know you miss your dad |
| Well I'm gone but I'm trying |
| To give you the life |
| That I never had |
| I can see you're sad |
| Even when you smile |
| Even when you laugh |
| I can see it in your eyes, |
| Deep inside you want to cry |
| Cause you're scared, I ain't there? |
| Daddy's with you in your prayers |
| No more crying, wipe them tears |
| Daddy's here, no more nightmares |
| We gon' pull together through it |
| We gon' do it' |
| Laney uncles crazy, ain't he? |
| Yeah but he loves you girl |
| And you better know it |
| We're all we got in this world |
| When it spins, when it swirls |
| When it whirls, when it twirls |
| Two little beautiful girls |
| Lookin' puzzled, in a daze |
| I know it's confusing you |
| Daddy's always on the move |
| Mama's always on the news |
| I try to keep you sheltered from it |
| But somehow it seems |
| The harder that I try to do that |
| The more it backfires on me |
| All the things growing up his daddy |
| That he had to see |
| Daddy don't want you to see |
| But you see just as much as he did |
| We did not plan it to be this way |
| Your mother and me |
| But things have gotten so bad |
| Between us I don't see us ever being |
| Together ever again |
| Like we used to be |
| When we were teenagers |
| But then of course everything |
| Always happens for a reason |
| I guess it was never meant to be |
| But it's just something we |
| Have no control over and |
| That's what destiny is |
| But no more worries, rest your head |
| And go to sleep |
| Maybe one day we'll wake up |
| And this will all just be a dream |
| Now hush little baby, don't you cry |
| Everything's gonna be alright |
| Stiffen that upper lip up |
| Little lady, I told ya |
| Daddy's here to hold ya |
| Through the night |
| I know mommy's not here right now |
| And we don't know why |
| We fear how we feel inside |
| It may seem a little crazy |
| Pretty baby but I promise |
| Momma's gon' be alright |
| It's funny |
| I remember back one year |
| When daddy had no money |
| Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents |
| Up and stuck 'em under the tree |
| And said some of 'em were from me |
| Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em |
| I'll never forget that Christmas |
| I sat up the whole night crying |
| Cause daddy felt like a bum |
| See daddy had a job |
| But his job was to keep |
| The food on the table for you and mom |
| And at the time |
| Every house that we lived in |
| Either kept getting broken into |
| And robbed or shot up on the block |
| And your mom was saving money |
| For you in a jar |
| Tryna start a piggy bank |
| For you so you could go to college |
| Almost had a thousand dollars |
| Till someone broke in and stole it |
| And I know it hurt so bad |
| It broke your momma's heart |
| And it seemed like everything |
| Was just startin' to fall apart |
| Mom and dad was arguin' a lot |
| So momma moved back |
| On the Chalmers in the flat |
| One bedroom apartment |
| And dad moved back to the other |
| Side of 8 Mile on Novara |
| And that's when daddy went |
| To California with his CD |
| And met Dr. Dre and flew |
| You and momma out to see me |
| But daddy had to work |
| You and momma had to leave me |
| Then you started seeing daddy |
| On the T.V. |
| And momma didn't like it |
| And you and Laney |
| Were to young to understand it |
| Papa was a rollin' stone |
| Momma developed a habit |
| And it all happened too fast |
| For either one of us to grab it |
| I'm just sorry you were there |
| And had to witness it first hand |
| Cause all I ever wanted to do |
| Was just make you proud |
| Now I'm sitting in this empty house |
| Just reminiscing |
| Lookin' at your baby pictures |
| It just trips me out |
| To see how much you both have grown |
| It's almost like you're sisters now |
| Wow, guess you pretty much are |
| And daddy's still here |
| Laney I'm talkin' to you too |
| Daddy's still here |
| I like the sound of that, yeah |
| It's got a ring to it don't it? |
| Shh, momma's only gone for the moment |
| Now hush little baby, don't you cry |
| Everything's gonna be alright |
| Stiffen that upper lip up |
| Little lady, I told ya |
| Daddy's here to hold ya |
| Through the night |
| I know mommy's not here right now |
| And we don't know why |
| We fear how we feel inside |
| It may seem a little crazy |
| Pretty baby |
| But I promise momma's gon' be alright |
| Bridge: |
| x2 |
| And if you ask me too |
| Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird |
| I'mma give you the world |
| I'mma buy a diamond ring for you |
| I'mma sing for you |
| I'll do anything for you |
| To see you smile |
| And if that mockingbird |
| Don't sing and that ring don't shine |
| I'mma break that birdies neck |
| I'll go back to the jeweler |
| Who sold it to ya |
| And make him eat every carat |
| Don't fuck with dad (ha ha) |
