(lyrics) 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 'Cause 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 gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it Laney 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 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, his daddy, daddy 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 gotten 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 Now hush little baby, don't you cry Everything's 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 momma's gon' be alright Huh, it's funny I remember back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up and stuck 'em under the tree And said, "Some of 'em were from me, 'cause Daddy couldn't buy 'em" I'll never forget that Christmas, I sat up the whole night crying 'Cause 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 broke into and robbed Or shot up on the block And your Mom was saving money for you in a jar Tryna start a piggy bank for you, so you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars 'til 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 On the Chalmers in the 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 C.D 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 Laney were to young to understand it 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 'Cause 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, guess you pretty much are, and daddy's still here Laney, 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 Now hush little baby, don't you cry Everything's 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, momma's gon' be alright And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a Mockingbird 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 that Mockingbird don't sing, and that ring don't shine I'ma break that birdies neck I'd go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya And make him eat every karat, don't fuck with dad (haha)
my father and i lost my mom when i was 3. i used to relate to this song when i was 1-8 but then he just.. stopped caring and loving me bc he has a New Older smarter step kid and a new wife that he has to take care of. but i can relate to this song about my little cousins. i took care of them my entire life and i obviously love them a lot
Well that's the thing. Everyone has different experiences, so a song will definitely hit people differently. It's not cause he wrote it for his daughter that everyone one else has to think of theirs when listening to it.
My mum did a lot for me when I was younger, I know she loves us all, she just struggles. She's fucked up, but she's still here, even when we had to leave my biological dad, and when my step-dad tried to leave. She raised me, she tried.
This song makes me wanna cry, my mother was very mentally and physically abusive. Even though my brother wasn't his, he still took care of both of us and fought for me during custody battles. He couldn't keep a job for very long, but he got better and started creating music. He's gotten so much better and he always talks about how grateful he is for me. It hurts because I feel like im not a good enough son for him.
This song brings back so many memories the thing is sad for me is “daddy’s here no nightmares” and “but he loves you girl and you know it” also “i try to give you the world that I didn’t have “ Because 👆 is what my dad always said to me sometimes
This song hits very close to home, half of the lines are exact things my father has said to me. I've had a very physically and emotionally abusive mother who often neglected me, not to mention I went to abusive day homes that neglected me and caused more physical and sexual abuse. my dad always fought for me, he fought for custody, represented himself in court. he fought for me, no matter what. he was the only one who stood up for me in my childhood
This song reminds me when my and my dad would ACTUALLY share time with each other. We would blast this song in our car while we drove to town, now he just spends his time drinking beer and playing video games.
@@darkpersona962 o qeder bekar ve kompleksli insansan ki, bu qeder insanin icerisinde mene oz aglinca “padxod” edebileceyini dusunmusen. Cavabini alandan sonra commenti deyisdirmeyin de ustune duzu biberidi. Senin hec kimin heyati ile bagli ileri geri danismaga haqqin yoxdu. Heryerde ozunuzu gostermek ve biabr elemek ucun ureyiniz gedir. Harada azerbaycanli gordun, səkini deyiş. Umid edirem boyuyersen ve cemiyyetde saglam bir ferd kimi formalasarsan.
brings back the days when I was like a young toddler and even though mom didn't want to buy me toys, dad always bought me one now I'm returning him the favor for my grades

Why are people forgetting this song is for Eminem’s daughter, than everyone’s like talking about their husbands and wife’s and gfs/bfs. Please understand this is for Eminem’s daughter
my dad had a bad childhood bc his dad was abusive and his mom and dad didn’t have enough money and they lived in poor conditions but my dad promised himself he was going to give his kids the life they deserved and my dad migrated to America and now we aren’t as rich but we have everything we need ❤️
People always feel sad or depressed after a break up.. I know it hard but people don’t actually listen deeply to the song. So people can actually relate, yet some people are just crying not even knowing what this whole song is about. People like me can actually relate to it but some people just listen to it because it’s a sad song, and it is. But it’s not just about bfs/gfs. (no hate to anybody)
Hey mom, hey dad. Dont worry. İ won the war with Depression. İ am not a hollow person anymore. İ started eating healthy now. İ still have my episodes but they are temporary. İll make it in life. Dont worry.
Well, I love my father and he loves me too, but he doesn't show that. Well, I accept this thing, but it bothers me because he doesn't tell me beautiful words or words that motivate me to study or anything, but it's okay, I'll keep loving him because he's my father and I won't be able to change him, and even if I can, I won't change him because he's also tired of raising me. I love my father and I hope he adjusts his style with me to love him more, but it's okay for him to stay as he is. I'll keep loving him no matter what.🙈💥
My dad showed me Eminem when we first got a car it was red our favorite color everyday we would drive around the block and listen to Eminem i miss him so much
This song reminds me of my dad he would try make/do anything I asked even if we are poor he would try everything for me and my sister. He wants the best for us
i relate to this song too much bro, my dad was in the military and he left to serve in afghanistan and he’s still there somewhere, my mom has drug problems and my sister is autistic so my mom spends all of her time looking after her so i basically her neglected :(

My father left me when i was 11 and my mum was the only one for me so This song reminds me of my mum lol (Even if this song about the father not the mother but the lyrics reminds Me of what my mum sacrificed all the stuff for me and my 2 siblings)
my dad played this for me we were really struggling to the point were my dad had 4 jobs and still sruggling and hi having full custody of me while my mom was a addict
My dad was a single dad for a couple months bc my mom was in Ohio when she was taking care of her mom when she was dying and I couldn’t bare it. My dad would do anything for me
I like how everyone tells stories about the past when they were with their own dads... Me and my twin sister never met our REAL dad.. Yup. Idk... ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
