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
