Eminem - Mockingbird (Live)

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 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 want to 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 gonna do it
Lainie uncle's crazy, aint 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
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mamma'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 he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your 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 we 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

[Chorus]
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upperlip 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 momma's gon' be alright

It's funny
I remember back when you and 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 couldn't buy 'em
I'll 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 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 momma's heart
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
Onto Chalmers in a flat one bedroom apartment
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
And that's 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
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it
And you and Lainnie were to young to understand it
That Papa was a rollin' stone, momma 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 reminiscing
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now
Wow, I guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Lainie I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah
It's got a ring to it don't it?
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment

[Chorus]

And if you ask me too
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'mma give you the world
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
I'mma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdies neck
I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (haha)

@compaq89ful lol flip the script? please tell me how im trying to "flip the script" i told you exactly how to link it to me, i know there is no video because you aint backing ur shit up. If youre dumb fucking ass aint gonna prove to me that eminem is lip syncing in a video then my work here is done. i educated you enough.

[compaq89ful]

@utubeblowsbigtime ahh so i see u saw the evidence and tryin to flip the script not working jackass and its not on youtube dumbass you need some science for your dumbass

[utubeblowsbigtime]

@compaq89ful and its called you go like this

Youtube(.)come fucking retard, its not rocket science 

[utubeblowsbigtime]

@compaq89ful Are you fucking stupid? You honestly don't know shit about anything but fucking mainstream. Get YOU'RE ass outa mainstream's ass and go underground/old school hip/hop, you'll learn what it should really be about. Every rapper i just fucking labeled had a story to tell, do some research on any of those rappers a labeled then relook at what you just wrote me. IDIOTIC i know, Actually do me a favor and look up Cage, you'll see how many stories that fucker has and the shit hes beenthrou

[compaq89ful]

@utubeblowsbigtime i cant copy the url so google it bitch

[compaq89ful]

@utubeblowsbigtime so wat your sayin is all hip hop has to be is about killin shottin drugs and cant be nothin else your just followin every body else lamo following the crowd and heres the evidence you love to see performance/ awh poor lil baby

[utubeblowsbigtime]

@compaq89ful awh poor little baby getting all defensive because i dissed his poor little mainstream artists. I dont have my head up Eminem's ass, i listen to DMX, Biggie, Pac, Mobb, Yela Wolf, Cage, Punn, Imortal, and more. I listen to the real Hip/Hop not this whole new fucked up pop singers that you listen to. So dont fucking tell me i suck em's dick when he isnt even my favorite rapper. And please post the evidence on where em was lip syncing. id love to see this.

[compaq89ful]

@utubeblowsbigtime duh dumbass everybody would to make there songs sound better and you sure do some hatin research get ya head out ems ass hes talkin about people like u in white america and eminem got caught lip synicing so shut the fuck up and get your facts straight

[utubeblowsbigtime]

@compaq89ful HAHAHA i guess you're head is shoved straight up the mainstream's ass. If you honestly think everyone of today's rapper's don't use auto tune, then you are the dumbest person i'v met. All of Young money use it, its facts. Listen to a Wayne song, then listen to it live, you will see how fucking horrible he sounds with-out his auto tune. So shut the fuck up, and get ur facts straight.
