[00:02.50]Yeah
[00:04.80]I know sometimes
[00:06.70]Things may not always make sense to you right now
[00:09.60]But ayy
[00:11.60]What'd Daddy always tell you?
[00:14.00]Straighten up, little soldier, stiffen up that upper lip
[00:19.30]What you cryin' about?
[00:21.20]You got me
[00:22.20]Hailie, I know you miss your Mom, and I know you miss your Dad
[00:25.30]When I'm gone, but I'm tryna give you the life that I never had
[00:28.00]I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
[00:31.30]I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you wanna cry
[00:34.00]'Cause you're scared, I ain't there, Daddy's witchu in your prayers
[00:36.90]No more cryin', wipe them tears, Daddy's here, no more nightmares
[00:39.80]We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
[00:41.90]Lainie—Uncle's crazy, ain't he? Yeah, but he loves you, girl, and you better know it
[00:45.50]We're all we got in this world when it spins, when it swirls
[00:48.20]When it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls
[00:51.00]Lookin' puzzled, in a daze, I know it's confusin' you
[00:53.80]Daddy's always on the move, Momma's always on the news
[00:56.70]I try to keep you sheltered from it, but somehow it seems
[00:59.20]The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
[01:02.00]All the things growin' up as Daddy that he had to see
[01:04.90]Daddy don't want you to see, but you see just as much as he did
[01:07.80]We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
[01:10.70]But things have got so bad between us, I don't see us ever bein'
[01:13.50]Together ever again, like we used to be when we was teenagers
[01:16.90]But then, of course, everything always happens for a reason
[01:19.60]I guess it was never meant to be, but it's just something
[01:22.40]We have no control over, and that's what destiny is
[01:24.70]But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
[01:27.60]Maybe one day we'll wake up and this'll all just be a dream
[01:30.50]Now hush, little baby, don't you cry
[01:33.40]Everything's gonna be alright
[01:35.50]Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya
[01:38.60]Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
[01:41.00]I know Mommy's not here right now, and we don't know why
[01:44.60]We fear how we feel inside
[01:46.70]It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
[01:49.40]But I promise Momma's gon' be alright
[01:52.80]Heh, it's funny
[01:53.60]I remember back one year when Daddy had no money
[01:56.00]Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up and stuck 'em under the tree
[01:59.10]And said some of 'em were from me 'cause Daddy couldn't buy 'em
[02:01.80]I'll never forget that Christmas, I sat up the whole night cryin'
[02:04.50]'Cause Daddy felt like a bum—see, Daddy had a job but his job
[02:07.30]Was to keep the food on the table for you and Mom and at the time
[02:10.90]Every house that we lived in either kept gettin'
[02:13.50]Broken into and robbed or shot up on the block and your Mom
[02:16.60]Was savin' money for you in a jar
[02:18.60]Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
[02:21.20]Almost had a thousand dollars, 'til someone broke in and stole it
[02:24.70]And I know it hurts so bad it broke your Momma's heart
[02:27.50]And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
[02:30.00]Mom and Dad was arguin' a lot, so Momma moved back
[02:33.20]On to Chalmers in the flat, one-bedroom apartment
[02:35.80]And Dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
[02:38.50]And that's when Daddy went to California with his CD
[02:41.40]And met Dr. Dre and flew you and Momma out to see me
[02:44.20]But Daddy had to work, you and Momma had to leave me
[02:47.00]Then you started seein' Daddy on the TV, and Momma didn't like it
[02:50.90]And you and L...........
