RepocH - Brooklynn

April 23rd, 2007 the birth of my first child an angel sent to me from heaven
She came to save the lost man, broken and beaten down
The first time she laid in my hands, angels stood all around
I asked God a million times who am I to be blessed
Looking in my angel's eyes love poured overflowed in my chest
With her asleep in my arms, I started praying and hoping
That nothing ever happens to the most precious girl I'm holding
I stood on top of the world, thoughts of nothing can bring me down
While holding my baby girl my heart thumped at the speed of sound
I faced the wicked half of me and told it to get lost
Don't come back unless for my seed, protect her at all costs

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word

I collected what I felt I needed, to build up a whole new life
A job, a house I created one day make her mom my wife
She grew before my eyes and showed me so much more than me
I swore looking in her eyes I'm forever here, I will never leave
In 2010, my daughter wouldn't answer me
When I told her that I love her, good night baby, time to go to sleep
Sitting straight up, mind stuck, up in outer space
I knew something was wrong by the overwhelming sadness on her face
With this look that hurt, a look no farther can ignore
She was four, no child should wear a face like the one that she wore
On my lap, I told her daddy's here it's OK to be sad
I tried to get it to react but nothing, you can see she's hurting bad

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word

Not a smirk, not a smile
I'm crumbling not knowing what is wrong with my child
Not a word, my worries piled
Then something out of the air with care told me I need to tell this to my child
I asked her if she wanted to stay for good with her daddy
She wrapped both arms all around me and cried and clung to me tightly
I cried tell me what's wrong, Brooklyn you got to tell me
She wouldn't, she held strong, afraid of her mom, she's never telling'
My eyes, have never shed so many tears
My daughter up and vanished, it's been over six years
Fed up, crying and bawlin' I broke all of my mirrors
Nightmares do come true and now I live with all my fears

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word

Brooklyn my rockstar, you filled up my empty heart
My love for you so strong, our bond can never be broken apart
Brooklyn my baby girl, I brought you into this world
I promised you the moon, I'm not going back on my word
