đľEminem - Mockingbirdđľ
Yeah
I know sometimes things might not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell youâ Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip Whatâchu crying about?
You got me..
[ Verse 1 ]
Hailie, I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
When Iâm gone but Iâm trying to give you the life that I never had
I can see youâre sad, even when you smile even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes deep inside, you wanna cry
Cause youâre scared I ainât there, Daddyâs with you in your prayers
No more cryin wipe them tears, Daddyâs here no more nightmares
We gonna pull together through it we gonna do it
Lainie, uncleâs crazy ainât he, yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
Weâre 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 itâs confusing you
Daddyâs always on the move, Mamaâs 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, growin up as daddy that he had to see
Daddy donât 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 donât see us ever being together ever again
Like we used to be like when was teenagers but then of course everything always happen for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be but itâs just something we have no control over
And thatâs what destiny is, but no more worries rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day weâll wake up and this will all just be a dream
[ Chorus ]
Now hush little baby donât you cry everythings gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady I told ya
Daddyâs here to hold ya through the night
I know mommyâs not here right now and we donât know why
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise Mamaâs gon be alright
[ Verse 2 ]
Itâs funny, I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christamas presents up and stuck em under the tree
and said some of em were from me cause daddy couldnât buy em
Iâll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night cryin
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 trying to 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 mammaâs heart
And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguing a lot so mama moved back on the chalmers in a flat
One bedroom apartment and dad moved back to the other side of 8 mile on Novara
And thatâs when Daddy went to California with his CD
And met Dr. Dre and flew you and Mama out to see me
But daddy had to work, you and mama had to leave me
Then you started seeing daddy on the TV, and mama didnât like it
And you and Lainie were too young to understand it
That Papa was a rolling stone, Mama developed a habit
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
Iâm 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 Iâm sittin in this empty house, just reminiscing
Looking at your baby pictures it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown, itâs almost like your sisters now
Wow, I guess you pretty much are and daddyâs still here
Lainie Iâm talking to you too, Daddyâs still here
I like the sound of that, yeah itâs got a ring to it, donât it?
Shhh, mamaâs only gone for the moment
[ Chorus ]
Now hush little baby donât you cry everythings gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady I told ya
Daddyâs here to hold ya through the night
I know mommyâs not here right now and we donât know why
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise Mamaâs gon be alright
[ Outro ]
And if you ask me to, Daddyâs gonna buy you a mocking bird
Iâma give you the world, Iâma buy a diamond ring for you
Iâma sing for you, Iâll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird donât sing and the ring donât shine
Iâma break that birdies neck
Iâll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every karat, donât fuck with dad
