Mocking Bird (Eminem Remix)(Song)

A Poem by Damien Davison

I wrote and performed the lyrics for my daughter. It has to do with her pacemaker.

So perfect

So innocent

Wish I could help your heart beat

Undeserving to live with it

I'll tighten the belt on your car seat

Making sure my nervousness doesn't get the best of me

Stressin

No lessons to be learned in this

My soul will not rest in peace

Destiny

A knife sliced

No guided line

Sometimes this life

It's not so kind

This can't be right

Say she'll be fine

Can't waste no time

Fate crossed the line

There must be some mistake

To young to bear this awful weight

Too many words that she can't say

Too bad this girl, she can't relate

But still the pain

Caused her to scream

In my arms please

Someone relieve

This broken piece

Of perfect dreams

I'm on my knees

Come hear my plea

But we're alone

This family's in a broken home

And you can't do this on your own

Your grandparents have loved you so

Your smile, it lights up the skies

Snow pile, the whites of your eyes

Now how can I see you cry

Allow the darkness of night

In spite of everything I'll tell you

You might think you're different

Surprise baby girl, I'll tell you

Here's the thing

Everyone is

No matter now

No matter then

Technological advances

Look at her frown

Look at her hand

Biological expectance

Just know you're beautiful

Yup, yup

You're beautiful

Yup

Girl, now do what you do

Yup, yup

You know you're cool

And no matter this problem Alexis

Daddy loves you more than anything he could ever dream

And though it seems daddy's never there

Don't be scared

We'll be reunited

And no matter the effort baby girl

I promise you I'll keep on fighting

(Chorus)

It's funny

You'd think this changed her

A blessing

Too young to be traumatized

Her life endangered

The best thing:

Happiness multiplied

So motivating

Why do we seem so frustrated

Why things seem so complicated

Her strength lifted us all up

Not fair for us to keep on weighting

Chasing

All the "what if's" and "what could be's"

She doesn't see it that way

The words come from her heart truly

She doesn't sleep with that pain

Walks without the thought of losing

A bounding leap without shame

Everything I wish I could be

Proud to be a part of something

All of the attention hogging

Pure and happy, clear of fog

And all the thoughts are clear to start with

Never causing all these problems

Pay the cost to try and solve them

Comedy, tragedy, drama

Harmony, happily honest

Honoring, battling harder

Then you're aware of

It scares us

Honestly

How do we harbor all these twisted fears as parents

But together we'll conquer, fully armored

Can't do it?

Heh, come dare us

Follow your father

Doubt will conjure from charmers

Just won't hear it

I don't consider this labor

I won't admit that it changed her

I won't give in to the nature

Following progress to danger

Bothering, stop it, go make her

Stalling the drop that'll break her

Falling is constant, restrain her

Fostering conscious behavior

As magnetizing as her eyes where beauty's laying

Heavy machinery draws the line between her dying

And living up to her potential

Obviously I'm trying

To guide her in this life

And all the while, the tides are rising

Here to save you

We can swim

Do it all over again

Look at momma

Come join in

Family, where have we been

Together at last

Bette relax

The weather comes fast

Better react

And make up for every minute, second, and every moment

Then take a minute, for every second, she's the one you're holding

Now take a moment, for every lesson, teach your daughter hope

And then safe she's growing up knowing

At least she's got a home.

Author's Note

I don't own Eminem's part obviously. Just wanted to make a tribute to my daughter.

Aspects of institutions

Although individual, formal organizations, commonly identified as "institutions," may be deliberately and intentionally created by people, the development and functioning of institutions in society in general may be regarded as an instance of emergence; that is, institutions arise, develop and function in a pattern of social self-organization, which goes beyond the conscious intentions of the individual humans involved.
As mechanisms of social interaction, institutions are manifest in both formal organizations, such as the U.S. Congress, or the Roman Catholic Church, and, also, in informal social order and organization, reflecting human psychology, culture, habits and customs, and encompassing subjective experience of meaningful enactments. Most important institutions, considered abstractly, have both objective and subjective aspects: examples include money and marriage. The institution of money encompasses many formal organizations, including banks and government treasury departments and stock exchanges, which may be termed, "institutions," as well as subjective experiences, which guide people in their pursuit of personal well-being. Powerful institutions are able to imbue a paper currency with certain value, and to induce millions into cooperative production and trade in pursuit of economic ends abstractly denominated in that currency's units.[citation needed] The subjective experience of money is so pervasive and persuasive that economists talk of the "money illusion" and try to disabuse their students of it, in preparation for learning economic analysis.[citation needed]
