Hailies Song
Somedays I sit staring out the window,
watchin' this world pass me by
Sometimes I think there's nothin' to live for. I almost break down and cry.
Sometimes I think I'm crazy. I'm crazy, oh so crazy. Why am I here? Am I just
wasting my time
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look
into her eyes
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's on
my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then she comes back to
me.
My baby girl keeps getting' older. I watch
her grow up with pride.
People make jokes cuz they don't understand me, they just don't see my real side
I act like s*** don't phase me, inside it drives me crazy. My insecurities could
eat me alive
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look
in her eyes.
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's on
my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then she comes back to
me.
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 got her. God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mom didn't want her Now you probably get this picture from my public persona that I'ma pistol packin' drug addict who bags on his mama. But I wanna to just take this time out to be perfectly honest, cuz there's a lot of s*** I keep bottled that hurts deep inside of my soul. And just know that I grow colder the older I grow. This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harder to hold, and this load is like the weight of the world, and I think my neck is breakin'. Should I just give up or try to live up to these expectations? Now look, I love my daughter more than life in itself, but I got a wife that's determined to make my life livin' hell. But I handle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt. So many chances, man, it's too bad - could have had someone else But the years 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 this woman. I've taken bats to people's backs, bent over backwards for this woman. Man, I should have seen it coming. What did I stick my penis up in? Wouldn't have ripped the pre-nup up if I'da seen what she was f*****' But f*** it, it's over. There's no more reason to cry no more. I got my baby, baby the only lady that I adore (Hailie). So sayonara, try tommorra, nice to know ya. Our baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner. And suddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted. It's like the greatest gift you could get. The weight has been lifted.
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's on
my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then she comes back to
me.
