Hailie's Song
Yo I can't sing·but I feel like singing. I want to fuckin'sing·cuz I'm happy·yea·I'm happy. I got my baby back·yo·check itout...
Verse 1 Somedays I sit staring out the window, watchin' this world passme by/Sometimes I think there's nothin' to live for. I almostbreak down and cry. Sometimes I think I'm crazy. I'm crazy, oh socrazy. Why am I here? Am I just wasting my time/But then I see mybaby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look intoher eyes
Chorus Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's on my shoulders.Everyone's leaning on me/ Cuz sometimes it feels like the world'salmost over, but then she comes back to me.
Verse 2 My baby girl keeps getting' older. I watch her grow up withpride. People make jokes cuz they don't understand me, they justdon't see my real side/ I act like shit don't phase me, inside itdrives me crazy. My insecurities could eat me alive/But then Isee my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when Ilook in her eyes.
Verse 3 Man, if I could sing, I'd keep singin' this song to my daughter.If I could hit the notes, I'd blow something as long as my father/ to show her how I feel about her. How proud I am that I gother. God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mom didn't. / Now youprobably get this picture from my public persona that I'ma pistolpackin' drug addict who bags on his mama. / But I wanna to justtake this time out to be perfectly honest, cuz there's a lot ofshit I keep bottled that hurts deep inside / of my soul. And justknow that I grow colder the older I grow. This boulder on myshoulder gets heavy and harder to hold, / and this load is likethe weight of the world, and I think my neck is breakin'. ShouldI just give up or try to live up to these expectations? / Nowlook, I love my daughter more than life in itself, but I got awife that's determined to make my life livin' hell. / But Ihandle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt. So manychances, man, it's too bad - could have had someone else/ But theyears that I've wasted is nothing to the tears that I've tasted,so here's what I'm facin'·3 felonies, 6 years of probation. /I've went to jail for this woman, I've been to bat for thiswoman. I've taken bats to people's backs, bent over backwards forthis woman. / Man, I should have seen it coming. What did I stickmy penis up in? Wouldn't have ripped the pre-nup up if I'da seenwhat she was fuckin.' / But fuck it, it's over. There's no morereason to cry no more. I got my baby, baby the only lady that Iadore / (Hailie). So sayonara, try tommorra, nice to know ya. Ourbaby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner. / Andsuddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted. It'slike the greatest gift you could get. The weight has beenlifted.
Chorus
Outro Told you I can't sing..Oh well... I tried... Hailie, rememberwhen I said if you ever need anything, Daddy would be rightthere? Guess what? Daddy's here, and I ain't going nowhere, baby.I love you·(kiss)
