Paroles Mockingbird

Paroles de la chanson Mockingbird :
I know sometimes things might 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'chu crying about?


You got me..






Hailie, I know you miss your mom


And I know you miss your dad when I'm gone


But I'm trying to give you the life that I never had


I can see you're sad


Even when you smile


Even when you laugh


I can see it in your eyes


Deep inside, you wanna cry


Cuz you're scared


I ain't there?


Daddy's with you in your prayers


No more crying


Wipe them tears


Daddy's here


No more nightmares


We gonna pull together through it


We gon' do it


Laini, uncle's crazy ain't he?


Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it


We're all we got in this world


When it spins


When it swirls


When it whirls


When it twirls


Two little beautiful girls


Looking puzled, in a daze


I know it's confusing you


Daddy's always on the move


Mama's 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


As daddy that he had to see


Daddy don't want you to see


But you see just as much as me he did


That we did not plan it to be this way


You're mother and me


But things have got so bad between us


I don't see us ever being


Together ever again


Like we used to be when was teenagers


But then of course*


Everything always happens for a reason


I guess it was never meant to be


But it's just something


We have no control over


And that's what destiny is


But no more worries


Rest your head and go to sleep


Maybe one day we'll wake up


And this will all just be a dream






[Refrain]


Now hush little baby don't you cry


Everythings gonna be alright


Stiffen that upper lip up little lady


I told ya, daddy's here to hold ya


Through the night


I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why


We fear how we feel inside


It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby


But I promise, Mama's gonna be alright






It's funny


I remember back one year when daddy had no money


Mommy wrapped the Christamas presents up


and stuck them under the tree


and said some of them were from me


Cos daddy couldn't buy ‘em


I'll never forget that Christmas


I sat up the whole night cryin'


Cuz daddy felt like a bum


See dadday 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 can 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 mama's heart


And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart


Mom and dads was arguing a lot


So mama moved back on the chammas and the flat


One bedroom apartment


And dad moved back to the other side of 8 mile on Novarra


And that's 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 didn't like it


And you and Laini were too young to understand that


Papa was a rolling stone


mama developed a habit


and it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it


I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand


Cuz all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud


Now I'm sittin' in this empty house, just reminiscin'


Looking at your baby pictures it just trips me out


To see how much you both have grown


It's almost like your sisters now


Wow, I guess you pretty much are


And daddy's still here


Laini I'm talking to you too


Daddy's still here


I like the sound of that, yeah


It's got a ring to it, don't it?


Shhh, mama's only gone for the moment






[Refrain]


Now hush little baby don't you cry


Everythings gonna be alright


Stiffen that upper lip up little lady


I told ya daddy's here to hold ya


Through the night


I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why


We feel how we feel inside


It may seem a little crazy pretty baby


But I promise


Mama's gonna be alright






And if you ask me to,


Daddy's gonna buy you a mocking bird


I'ma give you the world


I'ma buy a diamond ring for you


I'ma sing for you, I'll do anything for you to see you smile


And if the mockingbird don't sing and the ring don't shine


I'ma break that birdy's neck


I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya


And he gime every caret


Don't fuck with that
