Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

(Do Pattern from beginning to end)

I can't sing it

I feel like singin'

I wanna fuckin' sing

'Cuz I'm happy

Yeah, I'm happy

I got my baby back

Yo, check it out

Some days I sit (sit), starin' out the window

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 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 into her eyes

Repeat Chorus

Yeah and 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 didn't *censored* (abort her)

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 that 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 in itself

But I got a wife who'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 are 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 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, baby the only lady that I adore, Hailie

So sayonara, try tomorra, nice to know ya

My baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owna

And suddenly it seems that my shoulder blades have just shifted

It's like the greatest gift you can get

The weight has been lifted

Chorus 2

Now it don't feel like the world's on my shoulders

Everyone's leanin' on me

Cause my baby knows that her daddy's a 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)
