Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss dad Well I'm gone but I'm trying to you the life that I never had I can see sad, even 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 with you in prayers No crying, wipe them tears Daddy's here, no more We gon' pull through it, we gon' do it Laney uncles crazy, he? but he loves you girl and you better know it We're all we got in this When it spins, it swirls it whirls, when it twirls Two little beautiful Lookin' puzzled, in a I know confusing you Daddy's always on the move, always on the news I try to keep you sheltered from it but it seems The that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me All the growing up his daddy that 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 this way, your and me But have gotten so bad between us I see us ever being 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 that's what is But no more worries, your head and go to sleep Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all be a dream

It's I remember back one year when daddy had no Mommy wrapped the presents up And stuck 'em the tree and said 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 like a bum, see had a job But his job was to keep the on the table for you and mom And at the every house that we lived in Either kept broken into and robbed Or shot up on the block and your mom was money for you in a jar Tryna start a bank for you so you could go to college Almost had a thousand til someone broke in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's And it seemed everything was just startin' to fall apart Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved 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 flew you and out to see me But had to work, you and momma had to leave me you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it And you and Laney were to young to it Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a And it all too fast for either one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it hand Cause all I ever wanted to do was just you proud Now I'm in this empty house, just reminiscing Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just me out To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're now Wow, guess you much are and daddy's still here Laney I'm talkin' to you too, still here I like the sound of that, It's got a to it don't it? Shh, momma's only gone for the
And if you ask me too Daddy's buy you a mockingbird give you the world I'mma buy a ring 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 neck I'll go to the jeweler who sold it to ya And make him eat carat don't fuck with dad (haha)
