1
Yeah, I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now, but hey, what daddy always tell you,
2
straighten up little soldier, stiffen up that upper lip, what you crying about, you got me?
3
Haley, I know you miss your mom And I know you miss your dad
4
when I'm gone But I'm tryna give you the life that I never had I can see you sad, even when you smile Even when you laugh, I can see it in your eyes Deep inside you wanna cry,
5
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?
6
Yeah, but he loves you girl and you better know it What are we got in this world?
7
When it spins, when it swirls, when it whirls, when it twirls Two little beautiful girls looking puzzled in a daze I know it's confusing you, daddy's always on the move Mama's always on the news,
8
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 as daddy, that he had to see Daddy don't want you to see,
9
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 got so bad between us, I don't see us ever being together ever again Like we used to be
10
when we was teenagers
11
But then of course everything always happens for a reason I guess it was never meant to be
12
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'll all just be a dream Now,
13
us little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffing at a bulletproof, little lady I told ya,
14
daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now
15
And we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby, but I promise, mama's gonna be alright It's funny,
16
I remember back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
17
and stuck them under the tree And said some of them were from me, cause daddy couldn't buy them I'll never forget that Christmas, I sat up the whole night crying Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
18
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 broken into
19
and robbed You dropped a shot up on the block
20
and your mom was saving money for you in a jar Trying to start a piggy bank for you
21
so you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars, till someone broke in and stole it And I know it hurt
22
so bad it broke your mama's heart
23
And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart Mom
24
and dad was arguing a lot
25
so mama moved back on the traumas in a flat One bedroom apartment
26
and dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
27
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD
28
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 TV
29
And momma didn't like it And you and Lainey were too young to understand it Papa was a rolling stone, momma developed a habit
30
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there
31
and had to witness it Press hand cause all I ever
32
wanted to do was just make you proud Now I'm sitting in this empty house Just reminiscing, looking at your baby pictures It just tricked me out to
33
see how much you go through grown it's almost like your sisters now wow i guess you pretty much are
34
and daddy's still here laney i'm talking to you too daddy's still here i like the sound of
35
that chair it's got a ring to a donut mama's only
36
gone for the moment now little baby don't you cry everything's gonna be all right slipping
37
that up all the bunk little lady i told you daddy's
38
here to hold you through the night I know mommy's not here right now, but we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy,
39
pretty baby But I promise, mama's gonna be alright And if you ask me to,
40
daddy's gonna buy you a Markin' Bird 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
41
And if that Markin' Bird don't sing and
42
that ring don't shine I'ma break that birdie's neck I go back to the Julo, sold it to ya And they can meet every carrot F* with that

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
