Arose Lyrics - Eminem

If I could rewind time like a tape 

Inside a boombox 

One day for every pill 

Or percocet that I ate 

Cut down on the valium 

That'll hurt everything 

But death is turning so definite, wait 

They got me all hooked up to some machine 

I love you, Bean 

Didn't want you to know I was struggling 

Feels like I'm underwater 

Submerged like a submarine 

Just heard that nurse say 

My liver and kidneys aren't functioning 

Been flirtatious with death 

Skirt-chasing, I guess 

It's arrivederci 

Same nurse, just heard say 

They're unplugging me 

And it's your birthday 

Jade, I'm missing your birthday 

Baby girl, I'm sorry 

I fucking hate when you hurt, Hai 

And sweeties, thank you for waiting 

To open gifts 

But, girls, you can just open 'em 

Dad ain't making it home for Christmas 

Wish I had the strength to just blow a kiss 

I go to make a fist 

But I can't make one, I'm frozen stiff 

I yell, but nothing comes out 

I'm crying inside, I shout 

My vocal cords won't permit me 

I scream, but it's not allowed 

You put your arm around mama 

The karma, wow 

I just thought about the aisle 

I'll never get to walk us down 

Never see you 

Graduate in your caps and gowns 

It's 'bout to be 2008 

How's this happening now? 

I've got so much more to do 

And prove, I'm truly sorry 

If I let you down, but this tore me in two 

The thought of no more me and you 

You gave me shoes, Nikes like new 

For me for school 

Doody, I'm trying, but you 

You were the glue that binded 

So many things, time 

I'd give anything to rewind it 

I had to walk down my halls 

And constantly be reminded 

By pictures all on my walls 

And I couldn't sleep at night 'cause 

That image burned in my brain 

Of you on the table 

Me falling across your body 

Not able to stand to save you 

God, why did you take him? 

I'm tryna keep his legacy alive 

But I'm dying, where's Nathan? 

Little ladies, be brave 

Take care of your mother 

Smile pretty for pictures 

Always cherish each other 

I'll always love ya 

And I'll be in the back of your memory 

And I know you'll never forget me 

Just don't get sad when remembering 

And, little bro, keep making me proud 

You better marry that girl 

'Cause she's faithfully down 

And when you're exchanging those sacred vows 

Just know that if I could be there, I would 

And should you ever see parenthood 

I know you'll be good at it 

Oh, almost forgot to do something 

Thank my father too 

I actually learnt a lot from you 

You taught me what not to do 

And Mom, wish I'd have had the chance 

To have one last heart-to-heart 

Honest and open talk to you 

Doody, I see you 

I go to walk to you 

And I can feel my soul leave my body 

And float across the room 

Nurses lean over the bed 

Pulling tubes out 

Then the sheet over my head 

Shut the room down 

Girls, please don't get upset 

I see those cheeks soaking and wet 

As you squeeze hold of my neck 

So forcibly, don't wanna let 

Me go, pillow drenched 

Emotional wrecks 

With every second 

Each closer to death 

But suddenly, I feel my heart 

Begin to beat slow, then a breath 

Machines go (beep, beep, beep) 

Must've guessed the cheat codes to this shit 

I'm tryna rewind time like a tape 

Find an escape 

Make a beeline 

Try and awake 

From this dream, I need to re-find 

My inner strength 

To remind me 

Even if a steep climb I must take 

To rewrite a mistake 

I'm rewinding the tape

(I don't want it) 

I'll put out this last album, then I'm done with it 

One hundred percent finished, fed up with it 

I'm hanging it up, fuck it 

Excuse the cursing, baby, but just know 

That I'm a good person, though they portray me as cold 

And if things should worsen, but I bet you they won't 

I'm pledging to throw this methodome in the toilet 

Shred these old letters I wrote 

All that old pathetic loathing, closing credits can roll 

I'm proud to be back 

I'm 'bout to, like a rematch

Help propel me to 

Victory laps 

Gas toward them and fast forward the past 

Consider the last four minutes as 

That's the song I'd have sang to my daughters 

If I'd have made it to the hospital 

Less than two hours later, but I fought it 

Came back like a boomerang on 'em 

Now a new day is dawning 

I'm up, Tuesday, it's morning 

Now I know
