Lyrical Analysis of...

when im gone-Eminem

  1. Yeah
  2. It's my life
  3. My own words I guess
  4.  
  5. Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
  6. Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for
  7. When they know they're your heart
  8. And you know you were their armor
  9.  
  10. And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm 'em
  11. But what happens when karma turns right around and bites you
  12. And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you?
  13. What happens when you become the main source of a pain?
  14. "Daddy, look what I made.", dad's gotta go catch a plane
  15.  
  16. "Daddy, where's mommy? I can't find mommy, where is she?"
  17. I don't know go play Hailie, baby, your daddy's busy
  18. Daddy's writing this song, this song ain't gonna write itself
  19. I'll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself
  20.  
  21. Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
  22. And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of her
  23. That's Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady's crazy
  24. Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rock a bye baby
  25.  
  26. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  27. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  28. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  29. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  30. Just smile back
  31. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  32. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  33. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  34. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  35. Just smile back
  36.  
  37. I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on the swing
  38. She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing
  39. "You're making mommy cry, why? Why is mommy crying?"
  40. Baby, daddy ain't leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying,
  41. You always say that, you always say this is the last time.
  42. But you ain't leaving no more, daddy you're mine."
  43.  
  44. She's pilling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
  45. "Daddy please, daddy don't leave, daddy no stop it!"
  46. Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
  47. It's got a picture, "This'll keep you safe daddy, take it with ya."
  48.  
  49. I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
  50. These fuckin' walls must be talking, 'cuz man I can hear 'em
  51. They're saying "You've got one more chance to do right," and it's tonight
  52. Now go out there and show that you love 'em before it's too late
  53. And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
  54. It turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is on
  55. And I'm singing
  56.  
  57. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  58. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  59. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  60. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  61. Just smile back
  62. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  63. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  64. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  65. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  66. Just smile back
  67.  
  68. 60,000 people, all jumping out their seat
  69. The curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet
  70. I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
  71. They're screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
  72.  
  73. I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seeing
  74. "Daddy it's me, help mommy, her wrists are bleeding,"
  75. But baby we're in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
  76. "I followed you daddy, you told me that you weren't leavin'
  77.  
  78. "You lied to me Dad, and now you make mommy sad
  79. And I bought you this coin, it says 'Number One Dad'.
  80. That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin.
  81. I get the point fine, me and mommy are gone."
  82.  
  83. But baby wait, "It's too late dad, you made the choice.
  84. Now go up there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us."
  85. That's what they want, they want you Marshall, they keep screamin' your name
  86. It's no wonder you can't go to sleep, just take another pill
  87. Yeah, I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k keep it real
  88.  
  89. I hear applause, all this time I couldn't see
  90. How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me
  91. I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
  92. Put it to my brain and scream "Die Shady!" and pop it
  93.  
  94. The sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
  95. That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin'
  96. It's Spring and Hailie's outside swinging, I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
  97. Tell her I miss her, Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
  98. Almost as if to say
  99.  
  100. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  101. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  102. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  103. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  104. Just smile back
  105. And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
  106. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
  107. Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
  108. And I didn't feel a thing, so baby don't feel no pain
  109. Just smile back
