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 Im gone but Im trying to give you the life that I never had

I can see youre sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh

I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry

Cuz youre scared, I aint there?

Daddys with you in your prayers

No more crying, wipe them tears

Daddys here, no more nightmares

We gon pull together through it, we gon do it

Laney uncles crazy, aint he?

Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it

Were 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 its confusing you

Daddys always on the move, mammas 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 dont 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 dont 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 its just something we have no control over and thats what destiny is

But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep

Maybe one day well wake up and this will all just be a dream

Now hush little baby, dont you cry

Everythings gonna be alright

Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, i told ya

Daddys here to hold ya through the night

I know mommys not here right now and we dont know why

We fear how we feel inside

It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby

But i promise mommas gon be alright

Its 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

Cuz daddy couldnt buy em

Ill never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying

Cuz 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 broke 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 mommas 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 thats 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
