Hailie's Song
(专辑: The Eminem Show - 2002)
Da-da, da-da Yo, I
can't sing, but I
feel like singing I
wanna fucking sing 'Cause I'm happy Yeah, I'm happy I
got my baby back Yo, check it out Some days I
sit staring out the
window Watching this world pass me by Sometimes I
think there's nothing 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, oh, no 'Cause sometimes (Fuck) it feels like (I was scared) the
world's on my shoulders Everyone's leaning on me 'Cause 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 'cause they don't understand me They just don't see my real side I
act like shit don't faze 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 into her eyes, oh, no 'Cause sometimes it feels like the
world's on my shoulders Everyone's leaning on me 'Cause sometimes it feels like the
world's almost over But then she comes back to me Man, if I
could sing, I'd keep singing 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' backwards] Now, you probably get this picture from my public persona That I'm a
pistol-packing drug addict who bags on his momma But I
wanna just take this time out to be perfectly honest 'Cause there's a
lot of shit 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 breaking 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 living hell But I
handle it well, given the
circumstances I'm dealt So many chances, man, it's too bad, coulda 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': three felonies, six 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
shoulda seen it coming, what'd I
stick my penis up in? Wouldn't have ripped the
prenup up if I'da seen what she was fucking But fuck it, it's over, there's no more reason to cry no more I
got my baby, maybe, the
only lady that I
adore Hailie! So sayonara, try tomorrow, 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 can get, the
weight has been lifted, and— Now it don't feel like the
world's on my shoulders Everyone's leaning on me 'Cause my baby knows that her daddy's a
soldier Nothing can take her from me Wooo! Told you I
can't sing Oh, well—I tried Hailie, 'member when I
said If you ever need anything, Daddy would be right there? Guess what—Daddy's here And I
ain't going nowhere, baby I
love you [*smooch*]
