Hailie I know you miss mom and I know you miss your dad Well I'm gone but I'm to give you the life that I never had I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even you laugh I can see it in eyes, deep inside you want to cry Cause you're scared, I there? with you in your prayers No more crying, wipe them Daddy's here, no nightmares We gon' together through it, we gon' do it Laney crazy, ain't he? but he loves you girl and you better know it We're all we got in world it spins, when it swirls When it whirls, when it Two little beautiful puzzled, in a daze I it's confusing you Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it The harder that I try to do that, the more it on me All the growing up his daddy that he had to see Daddy want you to see but you see just as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, your and me But things gotten so bad between us I don't see us ever being ever again Like we to be when we were teenagers But of course everything always happens for a reason I guess it was never to be But just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is But no more worries, your head and go to sleep Maybe one day we'll wake up and this all just be a dream

funny I remember back one when daddy had no money wrapped the Christmas presents up And stuck 'em under the tree and some of 'em were from me Cause couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget that I sat up the whole night crying daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job But his job was to the food on the table for you and mom And at the time house that we lived in Either kept broken into and robbed Or shot up on the block and mom was saving money for you in a jar Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you go to college Almost had a dollars til someone broke in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's And it seemed like everything was startin' to fall apart Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so moved back On the Chalmers in the one bedroom apartment 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 daddy had to work, you and had to leave me Then you started daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it And you and Laney to young to understand 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 you were there and had to witness it first hand Cause all I wanted to do was just make you proud Now I'm sitting in this empty house, reminiscing Lookin' at baby pictures, it just trips me out To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like sisters now Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here I the sound of that, yeah got a ring to it don't it? Shh, momma's gone for the moment
And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a I'mma give you the 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 that ring don't I'mma break birdies neck I'll go back to the who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat don't with dad (haha)
