[Intro]

     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

[Verse 1]

                                                        

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

[Chorus]

                              

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Kembali ke Chorus]

                                                                    

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)
