Some days I sit (sit), starin' out the window(dow) Watchin' this world pass me by Sometimes I think (think) there's nothin' to live for (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 wastin' 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)
Chorus:
Sometimes it feels like the world's on my shoulders Everyone's leanin' on me 'Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's almost over But then she comes back to me
My baby girl (girl) (Hailie laughs) keeps gettin' older (der) I watch her grow up with pride People make jokes (jokes), 'cuz they don't understand me (me) They just don't see my real side
I act like shit don't phaze 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)
Repeat Chorus
Man, if I could sing, I'd keep singin' this song to my daughter If I could hit the notes, I'd blow somethin' as long as my father To show her how I feel about her, how proud I am that I got 'er God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mom did adum
Now you prob'ly get this picture from my public persona That I'm a pistol-packin' drug-addict who bags on his mama But I wanna just take this time out to be perfectly honest 'Cuz there's a lot of shit I keep bottled that hurts deep inside o' ma soul And just know that I grow colda the older I grow This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harda 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 n' 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, coulda had someone else But the years that I've wasted is nothin' 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 shoulda seen it comin', what'd I stick my penis up in? Woulda ripped the pre-nup up if I'd seen what she was fuckin' 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 tomorra, 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
Chorus 2: And now it don't feel like the world's on my shoulders Everyone's leanin' on me Cuz' my baby knows that her daddy's her soldier Nothin' can take her from me
Outro - Spoken Woo! I told you I can't sing Oh well, I tried Hailie, remember when I said If you ever need anything, daddy will be right there? Well guess what, daddy's here And I ain't goin' nowhere baby I love you (kiss)
