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 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", 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 Hailie, baby, your Daddy's busy |
|
Daddy's writing a song, this song ain't gonna write itself |
|
I'll give you one underdog then 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' Hailie on the 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 withcha'" |
|
I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror |
|
These fuckin' walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear 'em |
|
They're saying "You've got one more chance to do right" - and it's tonight |
|
Now go out there and show 'em that you love 'em before it's too late |
|
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door |
|
It 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 wrists 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 make 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 gone" |
|
But baby wait, "it's too late Dad, you made the choice |
|
"Now go up 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 pill |
|
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 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 |
|
That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin' |
|
It's spring and Hailie's 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 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... |
