Yeah...
Its my life...
In my own words I guess...
Have you ever loved someone so much, youd give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know theyre your heart
And you know you were their armour
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
But what happens when karma turns right around and bites you?
And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you?
What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
"Daddy, look what I made", Dads gotta go catch a plane
"Daddy, wheres Mommy? I cant find Mommy where is she?"
I dont know go play, Hailie, baby, your Daddys busy
Daddys writing a song, this song aint gon write itself
Ill give you one underdog and you gotta swing by yourself
Then turn right around on that song and tell her you love her
And put hands on her mother, whos a spitting image of her
Thats Slim Shady, yeah, baby, Slim Shadys crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shadys rock-a-by baby...
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back...
I keep having this dream, Im pushin Hailie on the swing
She keeps screaming, she dont want me to sing
"Youre making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
Baby, Daddy aint leaving no more. "Daddy, youre lying.
You always say that, you always say this is the last time
But you aint leaving no more, Daddy, youre mine."
Shes piling boxes in front of the door tryna block it
"Daddy, please, Daddy, dont leave, Daddy, no, stop it!"
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
Its got a picture, "Thisll keep you safe, Daddy, take it with you."
I look up, its just me standing in the mirror
These fucking walls must be talking, cause man I can hear em
Theyre saying, "Youve got one more chance to do right, and its tonight.
Now go out there and show em that you love em fore its too late."
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
It turns to a stage, theyre gone, and this spotlight is on
And Im singing...
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back...
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
The curtain closes, theyre throwing roses at my feet
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
Theyre screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
I glance down, I dont believe what Im seeing
"Daddy, its me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding."
But, baby, were in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
"I followed you, Daddy, you told me that you werent leavin.
"You lied to me, Dad, and now you made Mommy sad.
And I bought you this coin, it says Number One Dad.
Thats all I wanted, I just wanna give you this coin.
I get the point. Fine. Me and Mommy are going."
But, baby, wait.
"Its too late, Dad, you made your choice.
Now go up there and show em that you love em more than us."
Thats what they want, they want you Marshall
They keep screamin your name
Its no wonder you cant go to sleep, just take another pill
Yeah, I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real
I hear applause, all this time I couldnt see
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me?
I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
Put it to my brain, scream, "Die Shady!" and pop it
The sky darkens, my life flashes,
The plane that I was supposed to be on crashes
And burns to ashes
Thats when I wake up, alarm clocks ringin, theres birds singin
Its spring and Hailies outside swinging,
I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
Tell her I miss her,
Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
Almost as if to say
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back
And when Im gone, just carry on, dont mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that Im looking down on you smiling
And I didnt feel a thing,
So, baby, dont feel no pain
Just smile back...
*curtains closing and sounds of clapping*
