[00:03.12]Yeah I know sometimes
[00:07.11]Things may not always make sense to you right now
[00:10.73]But hey what'd daddy always tell you
[00:14.40]Straighten up little soldier
[00:16.91]Stiffen up that upper lip
[00:19.81]What you cryin' about you got me
[00:22.83]Hailie I know you miss your mom
[00:24.54]And I know you miss your dad when I'm gone
[00:26.27]But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
[00:28.67]I can see you're sad even when you smile even when you laugh
[00:31.67]I can see it in your eyes deep inside you wanna cry
[00:34.63]Cause you're scared I ain't there
[00:36.14]Daddy's with you in your prayers
[00:37.51]No more crying wipe them tears
[00:38.85]Daddy's here no more nightmares
[00:40.36]We gon' pull together through it we gon' do it
[00:42.34]Lainie uncle's crazy ain't he
[00:43.56]Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
[00:46.02]We're all we got in this world
[00:47.58]When it spins when it swirls when it whirls when it twirls
[00:50.11]Two little beautiful girls
[00:51.74]Looking puzzled in a daze I know it's confusing you
[00:54.39]Daddy's always on the move
[00:55.83]Momma's always on the news
[00:57.17]I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
[00:59.49]The harder that I try to do that the more it backfires on me
[01:02.72]All the things growing up as daddy that he had to see
[01:05.41]Daddy don't want you to see
[01:06.87]But you see just as much as he did
[01:08.67]We did not plan it to be this way your mother and me
[01:10.93]But things have got so bad between us
[01:12.53]I don't see us ever being together ever again
[01:15.42]Like we used to be when we was teenagers
[01:17.10]But then of course everything always happens for a reason
[01:20.37]I guess it was never meant to be
[01:21.85]But it's just something we have no control over
[01:24.09]And that's what destiny is
[01:25.95]But no more worries rest your head and go to sleep
[01:28.27]Maybe one day we'll wake up and this'll all just be a dream
[01:31.04]Now hush little baby don't you cry
[01:33.92]Everything's gonna be alright
[01:35.98]Stiffen that upper lip up little lady I told ya
[01:39.13]Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
[01:41.66]I know mommy's not here right now
[01:43.75]And we don't know why
[01:45.09]We fear how we feel inside
[01:47.35]It may seem a little crazy pretty baby
[01:50.03]But I promise momma's gon' be alright
[01:53.02]Heh it's funny
[01:53.87]I remember back one year when daddy had no money
[01:56.26]Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
[01:57.93]And stuck 'em under the tree
[01:59.25]And said some of 'em were from me
[02:00.97]Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
[02:02.35]I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night cryin'
[02:05.09]Cause daddy felt like a bum see daddy had a job
[02:07.89]But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
[02:10.54]And at the time every house that we lived in
[02:12.98]Either kept gettin' broken into and robbed or shot up on the block
[02:16.47]And your mom was saving money for you in a jar
[02:19.27]Tryin' to start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
[02:21.88]Almost had a thousand dollars
[02:23.66]'Til someone broke in and stole it
[02:25.26]And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
[02:27.74]And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart
[02:30.91]Mom and dad was arguing a lot
[02:32.48]So momma moved back on to Chalmers
[02:34.44]In the flat one bedroom apartment
[02:36.47]And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
[02:39.44]And that's when daddy went to California with his CD
[02:42.01]And met Dr. Dre and flew you and momma out to see me
[02:44.85]But daddy had to work you and momma had to leave me
[02:47.55]Then you started seeing daddy on the TV
[02:49.84]And momma didn't like it
[02:51.19]And you and Lainie were too young to understand it
[02:53.76]Papa was a rolling stone momma developed a habit
[02:56.45]And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
[02:59.12]I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
[03:01.88]Cause all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
[03:04.86]Now I'm sittin' in this empty house
[03:06.76]Just reminiscing looking at your baby pictures it just trips me out
[03:10.19]To see how much you both have grown
[03:11.80]It's almost like you're sisters now
[03:13.75]Wow guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
[03:16.62]Lainie I'm talking to you too daddy's still here
[03:19.45]I like the sound of that yeah it's got a ring to it don't it
[03:22.24]Sssshhh momma's only gone for the moment
[03:24.51]Now hush little baby don't you cry
[03:27.38]Everything's gonna be alright
[03:29.43]Stiffen that upper lip up little lady I told ya
[03:32.66]Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
[03:35.09]I know mommy's not here right now
[03:37.20]And we don't know why
[03:38.79]We fear how we feel inside
[03:40.55]It may seem a little crazy pretty baby
[03:43.48]But I promise momma's gon' be alright
[03:46.40]And if you ask me to daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
[03:50.15]I'ma give you the world
[03:52.10]I'ma buy a diamond ring for you I'ma sing for you
[03:54.86]I'll do anything for you to see you smile
[03:58.02]And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
[04:01.37]I'ma break that birdie's neck
[04:03.50]I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
[04:06.30]And make him eat every carat don't f**k with dad ha ha
