Daddy's with you in your No more crying, wipe them here, no more nightmares We gon' pull together through it, we do it uncles crazy, ain't he? Yeah but he loves you and you better know it We're all we got in world it spins, when it swirls When it whirls, it twirls 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 you sheltered from it but somehow it seems The harder I try to do that, the more it backfires on me All the growing up his daddy that he had to see Daddy don't you to see but you see just as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, mother and me But things have so bad between us I don't see us being together ever again we used to be when we were teenagers But then of course always happens for a reason I guess it was never to be But it's just something we have no control over and that's what is But no more worries, your head and go to sleep one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream

funny I back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the presents up And stuck 'em under the tree and some of 'em were from me daddy couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night Cause daddy felt like a bum, see had a job But his job was to keep the on the table for you and mom And at the every house that we lived in Either kept getting into and robbed Or shot up on the and your mom was saving money for you in a jar Tryna start a piggy for you so you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars til someone in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad it broke your heart And it seemed like everything was just to fall apart Mom and dad was a lot so momma moved back On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom And dad moved back to the side of 8 Mile on Novara And that's when daddy to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre And you and momma out to see me But had to work, you and momma had to leave me Then you started seeing on the T.V. and momma didn't like it And you and Laney to young to understand it Papa was a rollin' stone, developed a habit And it all happened too for either one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it hand Cause all I ever wanted to do was make you proud Now I'm sitting in this house, just reminiscing Lookin' at your baby pictures, it trips me out To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're now Wow, you pretty much are and daddy's still here Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's here I the sound of that, yeah got a ring to it don't it? Shh, momma's only for the moment
And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a give you the world I'mma buy a diamond for you sing for you I'll do anything for you to see you And if that mockingbird don't sing and ring don't shine break that birdies neck I'll go back to the jeweler who it to ya And make him eat every carat don't with dad (haha)
