Paroles :

[Intro] :
Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

[Couplet 1] :
Yo, his palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There is vomit on his sweater already
Moms forgettin' he's nervous
But on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drops bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth but the words won't come out
He's choking, how? Everybody's jokin' now
The clock's run out, time's up, over BLOW!
Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked, he's so mad
But he won't give up that easy, no he won't have it
He knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that
But he's broke, he's so sad that he knows
When he goes back to this mobile home
That's when it's back to the lab again, yo
This whole rhapsody, better go capture this moment
And hope it don't collapse on him

[Chorus] :
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment you own it you better never let it go, oh
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
Cuz opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment you own it you better never let it go, oh
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
Cuz opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better

[Couplet 2] :
Soul's escapin' through this hole's that is gaping
This world is mines for the taking
Make me king as we move toward a new world order
A normal life is boring
But superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, homie grows hotter
He blows us all over, these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter
Lonely roads got him
He knows he's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold ya nose cuz here goes the cold water
These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold prada
They moved on to the next shmo who flows
Who nose dove and sold nada
And so the so proper
His toll, it unfolds and I suppose it's old, partner
But the beat goes on
Duh duh doe, duh doe, dah dah dah dah

[Chorus]

[Couplet 3] :
No more games, I'ma change for due called rage
Tear this muthafuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin' and stepped writin' the next cipher
Best believe somebody's payin' the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my nine to five
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz, man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And there's no movie, there's no Mekhi Pfifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
And it's gettin' even harder tryin' to feed and water
My seed plus teeter-totter
Caught up between bein' a father and a pre-madonna
Baby momma drama, screamin' on her
Too much for me to wanna stay in one spot
Another damn or not has gotten me to the point
I'm like a snail, I've got to formulate a plot
Or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only muthafuckin' option, failure's not
Momma love you but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot
So here I go, it's my shot
Feet fail me not
Cuz maybe the only opportunity that I got

[Chorus]

Duh doo
You can do anything you set your mind to, man

• Titre : Eminem-When I'm Gone
• Année : 2007

Paroles :

Intro - Eminem
It's my life...
All in words I guess...

1st verse - Eminem
Have you ever loved someone so much you give it an arm for
Not the expression, NO, literally give it an arm for
When they know they are your heart and you know you are their armor
And you will destroy anyone who will try to harm them
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 her/a pain
"Daddy look what I made"
Dad's got to go catch a plane
"Daddy, where's Mommy, I can't find Mommy where is she?"
I dont know, go play, Hailey baby, your daddy's busy
Daddy's writing a song, the song ain't gonna write itself
I 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... whose a splitting image of her
That's Slim Shady, yeah baby Slim Shady's crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rocker by baby

Chorus - Eminem
...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 ain't gon' 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 ain't gon' feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain.
Just smile back...

2nd verse - Eminem
I keep having this dream, I'm pushing Hayley on the swings
She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing.
You're making mummy cry. Why ? Why is mummy crying,
Baby, daddy ain't leaving no more - daddy you are lying.
You always say that, You always say this is the last time,
But you ain't leaving no more, Daddy you are mine.
She's piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
Daddy please, don't leave, daddy noo stop it.
Go's in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket.
It's got a picture, It'll keep you safe daddy, take it with you
I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
These sinking walls must be talking, Cause man I can hear them.
They're saying : "You have got one more chance to do right, and it's tonight
Now go out there and show that you love them before it's too late."
And just as I go to walk out my bedroom door
It's turns to a stage, they are gone and this spotlight is on
And I'm singing...

Chorus - Eminem
...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 ain't gon' 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 ain't gon' feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain.
Just smile back...

3rd verse - Eminem
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seats
The curtain closes, they are throwing roses at my feet.
I take a bow and Thank You all for coming out
The scream is 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 mummy her wrists are bleeding!"
But baby WE'RE IN SWEEDEN, how did you get to Sweden ?
I followed you daddy, you told me that you weren't leaving.
You lied to me dad, and now you make mummy 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 mummy are going.
But baby wait... - It's too late dad, you made the choice
Now go up there and show them that you love them more than us.
That's what they want, they want you Marshall, they keep screaming your name
It's no wonder you can't go to sleep... Just take another pill...
Yeh, I bet you you will. You rap about it... Word, Keep it real.
I hear applause, all this time I could not 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 and scream "Die Shady!" and PUMP IT.
This sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane what I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes.
That's when I wake up, A long hot spring and there's birds singing
It's brilliant, Hayley's outside swinging, I walk up to Kim and kiss her.
Tell her I miss her, Hayley just smiles and winks at her little sister.
Almost as if to say...

Chorus & Outro - Eminem
...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 ain't gon' 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 ain't gon' feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain.
Just smile back...

TRADUCTION

Couplet 1 - Eminem
As-tu déjà aimé quelqu'un au point de lui prêter main forte
Pas dans le sens de l'expression, Non... Littérallement (être prêt à) donner un bras pour elle
Quand ils savent qu'ils sont ton coeur même et que tu es leur armure/protecteur
Et que tu détruira quiconque qui tenterait de leur faire du mal
Mais que se passe t-il quand le 'karma' n'en fait qu'à sa tête et te joue des tours ?
Et tout ce dont tu as sû tenir tête se retourne, malgré tout, contre toi ?
Que se passe t-il lorsque tu deviens la principale source de leur peine ?
"Papa, regarde ce que j'ai fait..." - Papa doit attraper un vol
"Papa, où est maman, je n'arrive pas à la trouver, où est-elle ?"
"Je ne sais pas, va jouer, Hailie ma chérie, ton père est occupé
Ton père écrit une chanson, la chanson ne va pas s'écrire toute seule
Je commence par te berçer et puis tu te balançeras par toi-même"
Ensuite, fais un tour sur cette chanson et dis lui que tu l'aimes
Et pose les mains sur sa mère, elle qui renvoie l'image de sa fille
C'est Slim Shady, oui chérie, Slim Shady est cinglé
Shady a fait de moi ce que je suis, mais cette nuit Shady devient fou de son bébé

Refrain - Eminem
...Et quand je serais parti, continue de poursuivre ta route... Ne sois pas mélancolique
Réjouis toi chaque fois que tu entends le son de ma voix
Sache juste que je veille sur ton sourire
Et je ne l'ai pas ressenti, donc chérie ne ressent pas de peine
Sourie simplement de nouveau...
...Et quand je serais parti, continue de poursuivre ta route... Ne sois pas mélancolique
Réjouis toi chaque fois que tu entends le son de ma voix
Sache juste que je regarde vers toi, à la recherche de ton sourire
Et je ne l'ai pas ressenti, donc chérie ne ressent pas de peine
Sourie simplement de nouveau...

2ème couplet - Eminem
Je continue de faire ce rêve... Je pousse Hailie sur la balançoire
Elle continue de crier, elle ne veut pas que j'aille chanter
"Tu fais pleurer maman. Pourquoi ? Pourquoi maman est couverte de larmes ?"
Ma chérie, papa ne vous laissera plus jamais - "Papa, tu ments.
Tu dis toujours ça, tu dis toujours que c'est la dernière fois
Mais tu ne vas plus jamais me quitter, Papa tu es à moi"
Elle empile diverses boîtes devant la porte, essayant de la bloquer
"Papa, s'il te plaît, ne pars pas, nan arrête toi"
Elle glisse sa main dans sa poche et y sort un minuscule médaillon
Dessus y figure une image - "Il veillera sur toi papa, prends-le avec toi".
Je lève les yeux, c'est simplement moi me tenant devant le miroir
Ces murs anciens doivent bien parler, parce que je peux les entendre
Ils me disent : "Tu as une chance de plus de faire le bon choix, et c'est ce soir
Maintenant sors d'ici pour les rejoindre et montre leur que tu les aimes avant qu'il ne soit trop tard..."
Et dès que je fais un pas en dehors de ma chambre
Je me retrouve aussitôt sur scène... Elles sont parties, mais le projecteur est toujours allumé..
Et je continue de chanter...

Refrain - Eminem

Couplet 3 - Eminem
Soixante mille personnes, tous à sauter de leur sièges
Le rideau se ferme, ils jettent des roses à mes pieds
Je m'incline devant eux et les salue, merci à tous d'être venu...
L'ovation est tellement forte, je jette un dernier coup d'oeil parmi la foule
Mon regard se profile vers le bas, je ne crois pas ce que je vois
"Papa c'est moi, AIDE maman, ses poignets sont en sang !!"
Mais chérie nous sommes en Suède, comment es-tu arrivé jusqu'ici ?
"Je t'ai suivi papa, tu as dit que tu ne partirais pas.
Tu m'as menti et désormais tu rends maman triste
Et je t'ai acheté cette médaille disant 'Le Numéro Un des Papas'
C'est tout ce dont j'ai toujours voulu, je veux seulement te la donner
Mais j'ai compris... Bien, maman et moi nous nous en allons"
Mais chérie attend... - "C'est trop tard ! Tu as fait ton choix
Disparaît maintenant et montre leur que tu les aimes plus que nous"
C'est ce qu'ils veulent, ils te veulent toi Marshall, ils continuent de scander ton nom
Ce n'est pas un problème que tu ne puisses plus trouver le sommeil, prend simplement une autre pillule...
Ouais, je suis sûr que tu le feras. Après tout tu rap à ce sujet n'est-ce pas ? Bien... continue ainsi.
J'entends les aplaudissements, durant tout ce temps je n'ai pû le voir
Comment cela est-il possible que le rideau se referme sur moi...
Je fais demi-tour, trouve une arme sur le sol et le charge
Le pose sur ma tempe, hurle de tout coeur "Meurt Shady!" et appuie sur la gâchette
Le ciel s'assombrit, ma vie défile sous mes yeux, l'avion dans lequel j'étais supposé être s'est écrasé et brûle en cendres
Puis vient l'heure de mon réveil lors d'un long printemps chaud, les oiseaux chantent
Tout est éblouissant, Hailie au dehors se berçe, je marche jusqu'à Kim et l'embrasse
Lui dit qu'elle m'a manqué, Hailie esquisce simplement un sourire et fait un clin d'oeil à sa petite soeur
Presque comme si c'était pour dire...

• Année : 2007

Paroles :

Yeah
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about?
You got me

Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
When I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cuz you're scared, I ain't there?
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears
Daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
Laney uncles crazy, aint he?
Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
We're all we got in this world
When it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
But things have gotten so bad between us
I don't see us ever being together ever again
Like we used to be when we was teenagers
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream

[Chorus]
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, i told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But i promise momma's gon' be alright

It's funny
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
And stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
Cuz daddy couldn't buy 'em
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
Cuz daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
And at the time every house that we lived in
Either kept getting broke into and robbed
Or shot up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre
And flew you and momma out to see me
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it
And you and Laney were to young to understand it
Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
Cuz all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
Now I'm sittin in this empty house, just reminiscing
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now
Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah
It's got a ring to it don't it?
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment

[Chorus]

And if you ask me too
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'mma give you the world
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
I'mma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdies neck
I'd go back to the jewler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (haha)
