Eminem - When I'm Gone

Yeah
It`s my life
In my own words I guess
Have you ever loved someone so much, you`d give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they`re your heart
And you know you are their armor
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm `em
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you
And everything you stand for, turns on you, despite you?
What happens when you become the main source of a pain?
"Daddy look what I made," dad`s gotta go catch a plane
"Daddy where`s mommy? I can`t find mommy, where is she?"
I don`t know, go play Haile, baby, your daddy`s busy
Daddy`s writing this song, this song ain`t gon` write itself
I`ll give you one underdog, and you gotta swing by yourself
Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
And put hands on her mother, who`s a spitting image of her
That`s Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady`s crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shady`s rocka-by-baby
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
I keep having this dream, I`m pushin` Haile on a swing
She keeps screaming, she don`t want me to sing
"You`re making mommy cry” Why? Why is mommy crying?
Baby, daddy ain`t leaving no more, "Daddy you`re lying”
"You always say that, you always say this is the last time
But you ain`t leaving no more, daddy, you`re mine"
She`s piling boxes in front of the door, trying to block it
"Daddy please, daddy don`t leave, daddy, no stop it!"
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
It`s got a picture, "This`ll keep you safe daddy, take it witcha`"
I look up, it`s just me standing in the mirror
These stinkin` walls must be talking, ‘cuz man I can hear `em
They`re saying, "You got one more chance to do right
And it`s tonight, now go out there
And show ‘em that you love `em ‘fore it`s too late”
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
It`s turns to a stage, they`re gone, and this spotlight is on
And I`m singing
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
The curtain closes, they`re throwing roses at my feet
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
They`re screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
I glance down, I don`t believe what I`m seeing
"Daddy it`s me, help mommy, her ****** are bleeding"
But baby we`re in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
"I followed you daddy, you told me that you weren`t leavin`
You lied to me dad, and now you made mommy sad
And I bought you this coin, it says `Number One Dad`”
"That`s all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
I get the point, fine, me and mommy are goin`"
But baby wait, "It`s too late dad, you made your choice
Now go out there and show `em that you love `em more than us"
That`s what they want, they want you Marshall
They keep screamin` your name
It`s no wonder you can`t go to sleep, just take another ****
Yeah, I bet you you will, you rap about it
Yeah, word, k-keep it real
I hear applause, all this time I couldn`t see
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me?
I turn around, find a *** on the ground, **** it
Put it to my brain, scream, "Die Shady" and *** it
The sky darkens, my life flashes
The plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
That`s when I wake up, alarm clock`s ringin`, there`s birds singin`
It`s spring and Haile`s outside swinging
I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
Tell her I miss her, Haile just smiles
And winks at her little sister
Almost as if to say
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
And when I`m gone, just carry on, don`t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I`m looking down on you smiling
And I didn`t feel a thing
So baby don`t feel no pain
Just smile back
