When Im Gone - Eminem
[00:00.39] Yeah...
[00:01.89] It's my life...
[00:04.38] In my own words I guess...
[00:05.88] Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
[00:09.13] Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
[00:12.38] When they know they're your heart
[00:13.63] And you know you were their armour
[00:15.39] And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
[00:18.64] But what happens when karma turns right around and bites you?
[00:21.88] And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you?
[00:25.13] What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
[00:28.13] "Daddy, look what I made", Dad's gotta go catch a plane
[00:31.39] "Daddy, where's Mommy? I can't find Mommy where is she?"
[00:34.64] I don't know go play, Hailie, baby, your Daddy's busy
[00:37.89] Daddy's writing a song, this song ain't gon' write itself
[00:40.88] I'll give you one underdog and you gotta swing by yourself
[00:44.38] Then turn right around on that song and tell her you love her
[00:47.39] And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of her
[00:50.88] That's Slim Shady, yeah, baby, Slim Shady's crazy
[00:54.13] Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rock-a-by baby...
[00:58.13] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[01:00.39] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[01:03.53] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[01:06.29] And I didn't feel a thing,
[01:08.04] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[01:09.54] Just smile back
[01:10.79] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[01:13.04] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[01:16.29] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[01:19.03] And I didn't feel a thing,
[01:20.79] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[01:22.04] Just smile back...
[01:23.18] I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on the swing
[01:25.94] She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing
[01:28.69] "You're making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
[01:32.18] Baby, Daddy ain't leaving no more. "Daddy, you're lying.
[01:35.43] You always say that, you always say this is the last time
[01:39.18] But you ain't leaving no more, Daddy, you're mine."
[01:41.93] She's piling boxes in front of the door tryna block it
[01:44.94] "Daddy, please, Daddy, don't leave, Daddy, no, stop it!"
[01:48.43] Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
[01:51.43] It's got a picture, "This'll keep you safe, Daddy, take it with you."
[01:54.94] I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
[01:57.93] These fucking walls must be talking, 'cause man I can hear 'em
[02:00.94] They're saying, "You've got one more chance to do right, and it's tonight.
[02:04.69] Now go out there and show 'em that you love 'em 'fore it's too late."
[02:08.19] And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
[02:10.68] It turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is on
[02:13.93] And I'm singing...
[02:14.94] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[02:17.18] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[02:20.19] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[02:23.19] And I didn't feel a thing,
[02:24.68] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[02:26.18] Just smile back
[02:27.43] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[02:29.94] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[02:32.94] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[02:35.93] And I didn't feel a thing,
[02:37.44] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[02:38.94] Just smile back...
[02:39.84] Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
[02:42.58] The curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet
[02:45.83] I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
[02:48.83] They're screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
[02:52.47] I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seeing
[02:55.48] "Daddy, it's me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding."
[02:58.73] But, baby, we're in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
[03:01.87] "I followed you, Daddy, you told me that you weren't leavin'.
[03:05.13] "You lied to me, Dad, and now you made Mommy sad.
[03:08.12] And I bought you this coin, it says 'Number One Dad'.
[03:11.63] That's all I wanted, I just wanna give you this coin.
[03:14.88] I get the point. Fine. Me and Mommy are going."
[03:17.87] But, baby, wait.
[03:18.88] "It's too late, Dad, you made your choice.
[03:21.12] Now go up there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us."
[03:24.13] That's what they want, they want you Marshall
[03:26.63] They keep screamin' your name
[03:28.38] It's no wonder you can't go to sleep, just take another pill
[03:31.87] Yeah, I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real
[03:37.12] I hear applause, all this time I couldn't see
[03:40.37] How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me?
[03:43.38] I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
[03:46.87] Put it to my brain, scream, "Die Shady!" and pop it
[03:50.13] The sky darkens, my life flashes,
[03:52.38] The plane that I was supposed to be on crashes
[03:55.13] And burns to ashes
[03:56.38] That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin'
[04:00.38] It's spring and Hailie's outside swinging,
[04:02.87] I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
[04:04.63] Tell her I miss her,
[04:05.88] Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
[04:08.88] Almost as if to say
[04:10.37] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[04:12.38] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[04:15.38] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[04:18.13] And I didn't feel a thing,
[04:19.88] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[04:21.12] Just smile back
[04:22.62] And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
[04:25.13] Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[04:28.13] Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
[04:31.12] And I didn't feel a thing,
[04:32.63] So, baby, don't feel no pain
[04:34.13] Just smile back...
