When I’m Gone Eminem [Introduction] Yeah... It's my life... My own words guess... [Verse 1] Have you ever someone so much, you'd give an arm for? Not expression, no, literally give an arm for? When they know they're your And you know were their armour And you destroy anyone who would try to harm 'her But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites And everything you stand for, turns on you, you? What happens when you the main source of her pain? look what I made", Dad's gotta go catch a plane "Daddy where's Mommy? I find Mommy where is she?" I don't know go play baby, your Daddy's busy Daddy's writing a song, song ain't gonna write itself I'll give you one underdog then you gotta swing yourself Then turn right around that song and tell her you love her And put hands on her mother, a spitting image of her That's Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim crazy Shady me, but tonight Shady's rocka-by-baby... [Chorus] And when I'm gone, just carry don't mourn Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my know that I'm looking down on you smiling And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no Just smile back And when I'm gone, carry on, don't mourn Rejoice every time you hear the sound my voice Just that I'm looking down on you smiling I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain Just smile back... [Verse 2] I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' on the swing She keeps she don't want me to sing "You're making Mommy cry, Why is Mommy crying?" Baby, Daddy leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying "You always say that, you say this is the last time "But you ain't leaving no Daddy you're mine" She's piling in front of the door trying to block it "Daddy please, Daddy don't leave, - no stop it!" Goes in her pocket, pulls out a necklace locket It's a picture, "this'll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha'" I up, it's just me standing in the mirror These fuckin' walls must be talking, cuz man can hear 'em They're saying "You've got one more chance to right" - and it's tonight Now go out and show that you love 'em before it's too late And just I go to walk out of my bedroom door It's turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is And I'm singing... [Chorus] And when I'm gone, just carry on, mourn Rejoice every time you hear the sound my voice know that I'm looking down on you smiling And I didn't feel a thing, baby don't feel no pain Just smile back And when gone, just carry on, don't mourn Rejoice every time you hear sound of my voice Just know that I'm looking down you smiling And I didn't a thing, So baby don't feel no pain Just smile back... [Verse 3] Sixty thousand all jumping out their seat curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet I take a bow and thank you all for out They're screaming loud, I take one last look at the crowd I glance I don't believe what I'm seeing "Daddy it's me, help Mommy, wrists are bleeding," But baby we're in Sweden, did you get to Sweden? "I you Daddy, you told me that you weren't leavin' "You lied me Dad, and now you make Mommy sad "And I bought you this coin, it says One Dad' "That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this "I get the point - fine, and Mommy are going" But baby wait, "it's too Dad, you made the choice "Now out there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us" That's what they want, want you Marshall, they keep.. screamin' your name It's no you can't go to sleep, just take another pill I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real I hear all this time I couldn't see How could it that the curtain is closing on me I turn around, find a gun on the cock it Put it to my brain and scream Shady" and pop it sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes That's when I wake alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin' It's Spring and Hailie's outside swinging, I walk right up Kim and kiss her Tell I miss her, Hailie just smiles and winks her little sister as if to say.. [Chorus/Outro] And I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn Rejoice every you hear the sound of my voice Just know that I'm looking down on smiling And I didn't feel thing, So baby don't feel no pain Just smile back And when I'm just carry on, don't mourn Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my Just know that I'm looking down you smiling And I didn't feel a thing, So don't feel no pain Just smile back... [Curtains closing sounds of footsteps]
