"They have went through something that I ain't even been through," he continued, but noted their resilience.
"My second daughter Nala, she would just come out of the blue and be like, ‘What's wrong, Daddy? You okay? Don't worry. Everything’s going to be okay,' That's the spirit," the Candy Cane Lane star recalled, adding, "It's gonna be hard but they’re built for it."
Still, he struggles with Oh's death, saying, "I wouldn't wish this on nobody, it's hard everyday, still to this day. It feels like a dream, feels like she's gonna walk in," but that he has to snap himself back into reality.
While the rapper and comedian is still grieving, he knows the process of grieving is a "forever thing" and he might feel differently "in two years" or in 10. "But I'm just thankful that God allowed me to continue," he said.
