Lyrical Analysis of...

when i am gone by eminem

  1. Yeah, it's my life
  2. My own words, I guess
  3. Have you ever loved someone so much
  4. You'd give an arm for
  5. Not the expression, no
  6. Literally give an arm for
  7. When they know they're your heart
  8. And you know you are their armor
  9. And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
  10. But what happens when karma
  11. 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 her pain
  14. "Daddy look what I made"
  15. "Dad's gotta go catch a plane"
  16. "Daddy where's mommy?
  17. I can't find mommy, where is she?"
  18. "I don't know, go play, Hailie baby, your daddy's busy
  19. Daddy's writing a song, this song ain't gon' write itself"
  20. I give you one underdog, and you gotta swing by yourself
  21. Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
  22. And put hands on her mother who's the spittin' image of her
  23. That's Slim Shady, yeah baby Slim Shady's crazy
  24. Shady made me
  25. But tonight, Shady's rock a bye baby
  26. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  27. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  28. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  29. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
  30. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  31. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  32. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  33. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
  34. I keep havin' this dream
  35. I'm pushin' Hailie on a swing, she keeps screamin', she don't want me to sing
  36. "You're makin' mommy cry, why, why is mommy cryin'"
  37. "Baby, daddy ain't leavin' no more, daddy you're lyin'
  38. You always say that, you always say this is the last time
  39. But you ain't leavin' no more daddy, you're mine"
  40. She's pilin' boxes in front of the door tryin' to block it
  41. "Daddy please, daddy, don't leave, daddy, no, stop it"
  42. Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
  43. It's got a picture, "This will keep you safe daddy, take it with ya"
  44. I look up, it's just me standin' in the mirror
  45. These fuckin' walls must be talkin', 'cause man I can hear 'em
  46. They're sayin', "you got one more chance to do right
  47. And it's tonight, now go out and show 'em that you love 'em before it's too late"
  48. And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
  49. It turns to a stage, they're gone and the spotlight is on and I'm singin'
  50. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  51. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  52. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  53. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
  54. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  55. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  56. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  57. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
  58. Sixty thousand people all jumpin' out their seat
  59. The curtain closes, they're throwin' roses at my feet
  60. I take a bow, and thank you all for comin' out
  61. They're screamin' so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
  62. I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seein'
  63. "Daddy, its me, help mommy, her wrists are bleedin'"
  64. But baby we're in Sweden
  65. How did you get to Sweden?
  66. "I followed you daddy
  67. You told me that you weren't leavin'
  68. You lied to me dad, and now you made mommy sad
  69. And I bought you this coin, it says number one dad
  70. That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin"
  71. "I get the point, fine, me and mommy are goin'"
  72. "But baby wait, it's too late dad, you made your choice
  73. Now go out there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us
  74. That's what they want
  75. They want you, Marshall
  76. They keep screamin' your name
  77. It's no wonder you can't go to sleep
  78. Just take another pill, yeah I bet you you will!
  79. You rap about it, yeah word, kid keep it real"
  80. I hear a applause, all this time I couldn't see
  81. How could it be, that the curtain is closin' on me
  82. I turn around, find a gun on the ground
  83. Cock it, put it to my brain, scream "die Shady!" And pop it
  84. The sky darkens, my life flashes
  85. The plane that I was supposed to be on, crashes, and burns to ashes
  86. That's when I wake up
  87. Alarm clock's ringing, there's birds singin'
  88. It's spring and Hailie's outside swingin'
  89. I walk right up to Kim and kiss her tell her I miss her
  90. Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister almost as if to say
  91. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  92. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  93. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  94. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
  95. And when I'm gone just carry on don't mourn
  96. Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice, just know that
  97. I'm lookin' down on you smilin'
  98. And I didn't feel a thing so baby, don't feel no pain, just smile back
