Eminem: Mockingbird Meaning

Song Released: 2005

Mockingbird Lyrics

Yeah
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about?
You got me

Hailie I know you miss your mom and I...

   I think Eminem made this song so he could tell Hailie and Alaina about what was going on with their mom (Alaina's aunt) and him at the time.
   
   I also think this is him saying that no matter what is going to happen with either him or Kim he will be there for them and that he loves them both very much.

   It's sayin that no matter what he is there for his two daughters. It is when he first started his career and he wasn't there for them but he wants all that back.

   This song is for his daughter, Hailie.
   It mostly talks about all the struggles in his life and what he and his family have gone through. It tells Hailie that he's always going to be there, through the good and the bad times.

   Eminem is just telling Hallie that he is sorry but "I don't see us ever being together ever again like we used to be when we was teenagers." think man,think.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   This is a song about his wife and daughter. It's really a song for his daughter telling her everything will be alright one day their family will get back together and your mom and dad will always love you.
