Yeah🎶
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
When 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
Lainie Uncle’s 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, mamma’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 as 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 got so bad between us
I don’t see us ever being together ever again💕
Like we used to be when we was 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 feel how we feel inside 💔
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise mama’s gon’ be alright… 🎶
Haa
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 ’til someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your mamma’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 Lainnie were too 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, I guess you pretty much are and daddy’s still here
Lainnie 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, mama’s only gone for the moment… 🎶
And if you ask me to 👀
Daddy’s gonna buy you a mockingbird
I’mma give you the world
I’mma buy a diamond ring for you ❤
