[00:00.92] Yeah
[00:02.42] It’s my life
[00:04.67] But all in words I guess
[00:06.15] Have you ever loved someone so much you’d give an arm for?
[00:09.17] Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
[00:12.17] When they know they are your heart
[00:13.94] And you know you are their armour
[00:15.67] And you will destroy anyone who will try to harm her
[00:18.67] But what happens when karma turns right around and bites you
[00:21.67] And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you
[00:25.17] What happens when you become the main source of her pain
[00:28.41] “Daddy look what I made?”
[00:29.92] “Dad’s gotta go catch a plane”
[00:31.67] “Daddy where’s mummy? I can’t find mummy, where is she?”
[00:34.91] I don’t know, go play, Hailie baby your daddy’s busy.
[00:37.92] Daddy’s writin’a
[00:38.92] song, this song ain’t gon’ write itself
[00:40.94] I give you one underdog, then you gotta swing by yourself
[00:44.43] Then to write a rhyme in a song and tell her you love her
[00:47.40] And put hands on her mother who’s a spittin’ image of her
[00:50.67] That’s slim shady, yeah baby slim shady’s crazy
[00:54.17] Shady made me, but tonight, Shady’s rock-a-by baby
[00:57.66] ♪
[01:00.92] And when I’m gone, just carry on don’t mourn,
[01:02.41] rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
[01:05.17] Just know that I’m lookin’ down on you smiling
[01:06.42] And I didn’t feel a thing so baby don’t feel no pain,
[01:10.67] just smile back
[01:23.42] I keep havin’ this dream –
[01:24.67] I’m pushin’ hailie on the swings she keeps screamin’
[01:26.17] She don’t want me to sing, “You’re makin mummy cry,
[01:30.67] why, why’s mummy crying?”
[01:32.95] Baby, Daddy ain’t leavin’ no more,
[01:35.68] “Daddy you’re lying,
[01:36.42] You always say that, you always say this is the last time,
[01:39.17] but you ain’t leavin’ no more, Daddy you’re mine!”
[01:41.91] She’s piling boxes infront of the door tryin’ to block it,
[01:44.92] “Daddy please daddy don’t leave daddy no, stop it!”
[01:48.42] Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket,
[01:51.67] it’s got a picture,
[01:52.92] “This’ll keep you safe daddy, take it with you”
[01:55.92] I look up, it’s just me standin in the mirror,
[01:57.92] these fuc*** walls must be talkin coz man I can hear ‘em
[02:01.19] They sayin you got one more chance to do right, and it’s tonight,
[02:04.92] Now go out there and show ‘em
[02:07.17] that you love ‘em ‘fore its too late
[02:08.66] And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
[02:11.19] it turns to a stage, they’re gone

[02:40.17] ♪
[02:40.67] Sixty thousand people, all jumpin’ out their seat
[02:42.92] The curtain closes, they’re throwing roses at my feet
[02:45.92] I take a bow, “and thank you all for comin’ out”
[02:48.91] They’re screamin so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
[02:52.42] I glance down, I don’t believe what I’m seein’,
[02:55.43] “Daddy it’s me! Help mummy her wrists are bleedin’”
[02:58.66] But baby we’re in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?!
[03:01.93] “I followed you daddy, you told me that you wern’t leavin
[03:05.17] You lied to me dad, and now you make mummy sad
[03:08.43] And I bought you this coin
[03:11.67] It says ‘number 1 dad’, that’s all I wanted

[03:34.43] I hear applause, all this time I couldn’t see
[03:40.43] How could it be that the curtain is closing on me
[03:43.42] I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it,
[03:46.93] put it to my brain, scream ‘Die Shady!’ and pop it
[03:50.17] The sky darkens, my life flashes,
[03:52.41] The plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
[03:56.41] That’s when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin',
[04:00.67] There’s birds singin’, it’s spring and
[04:05.16] Hailie’s out side swingin’
[04:05.92] I walk right up to Kim and kiss her, tell her I miss her
[04:07.91] Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister,
