Leaving Heaven Eminem, Skylar Grey

[00:00.17] Yeah (I knew this day was coming)
[00:02.36] Sometimes, you gotta come back down (it's all going to hell now, man)
[00:06.34] Stoop to someone's level (yeah)
[00:08.56] Five dozen, flies buzzin' over your head
[00:11.21] Call me the Grim Reaper, sleep is my cousin
[00:13.46] You're dead to me now and I'ma be the last face you see
[00:16.38] 'Fore you die cussin' (yep)
[00:17.76] My eye a tiger's and I'm a survivor so I will rise up and (what?)
[00:21.85] Be triumphant 'cause when I'm looking at my legacy (leg, I see)
[00:25.13] Bunch of dogs tryna dry hump it
[00:27.04] Like Triumph The Puppet, so I'm like, "Fuck it"
[00:29.00] Pile the carnage up 'til it's so high, it's touching the sky
[00:31.98] Let 'em all line up and attack
[00:33.94] Single filing up in the stack
[00:36.19] Call 'em toy soldiers (yeah)
[00:38.33] 'Cause they just wind up on their backs
[00:40.48] Now the sky's nothing but black
[00:41.91] But I am not coming back, I done told ya
[00:43.86] I told the woke me to go to sleep
[00:45.45] But still, they keep on provoking me
[00:46.86] They're hoping to see me completely broken emotionally
[00:49.82] But how in the fuck am I not supposed to be woke
[00:51.85] When these fuckers just keep poking me? Now
[00:53.33] I'm leaving Heaven
[00:57.42] I'm leaving Heaven
[01:01.74] Angels won't find me
[01:05.90] Where I am going
[01:11.30] I've been down, kicked
[01:12.21] Like around six thousand times since I was a kid
[01:15.22] As a child, picked on, clowned
[01:17.43] Countless times I've been doubted
[01:19.39] Gotta remind myself of it every now and then (yeah)
[01:21.98] So the route I went's self-empowerment
[01:23.87] In a hole, taught myself how to get out of it
[01:26.45] And balance it with talents, wit
[01:27.90] 'Cause life is like a penny (life is like a penny)
[01:30.53] 'Cause it's only one percent
[01:31.94] Who overcome the shit they've underwent
[01:33.76] I went AWOL like what my back was up against
[01:36.09] Don't tell me 'bout struggle, bitch, I lived it
[01:38.38] I was five or six the first time I got my hind end kicked
[01:41.20] Malcolm, Isaac, and Boogie jumped me and took my tricycle
[01:44.39] And I don't know if I would call that white privilege, yeah
[01:47.76] But I get it, how it feels to be judged by pigment
[01:50.84] Besides getting it from both sides of the tracks
[01:52.99] But I swore I'd get them back
[01:53.99] Even if it meant selling my soul to get my revenge and (what?)
[01:56.53] Thought of a scheme and it got me to thinking
[01:57.90] If I can believe in myself, I could prolly achieve it
[01:59.56] That's part of the reason I do all my talking with ink
[02:01.49] And as long as I'm breathing I vow to smother and beat them
[02:03.27] My God, what a heart of a demon, go at 'em and I'ma get even
[02:05.29] Like I'm in the Garden of Eden, I'm 'bout to go off of the deep end
[02:07.54] This evil is calling, I'm already seething and
[02:08.70] I'm leaving Heaven
[02:12.91] I'm leaving Heaven
[02:17.09] Angels won't find me
[02:21.51] Where I am going
[02:25.52] Okay, so while Macklemore was keeping his room nice and neat (yeah)
[02:28.60] I was getting my ass beat twice a week (what?)
[02:30.44] Looking for a place for the night where I could sleep
[02:32.55] Flippin' sofa cushions over just tryin' to see
[02:34.60] If I could find some change and scrape up for a bite to eat
[02:36.62] If Denaun and me find a couple of dimes a piece
[02:38.62] 25 cents each'd get us a bag of chips
[02:40.65] We'd be glad to get that even we if we had to split
[02:42.92] We'd do backward flips, looking back at it
[02:44.46] I think that would fit with the definition of not having shit
[02:47.20] Couple that with the fact my mother was batshit
[02:48.99] Pop was a sack of shit, yeah, he died, but I gave half a shit
[02:51.65] Yeah, which brings me back to the dear ol' dad that I zero had
[02:54.68] Since a year-old, 47-year-old scab
[02:56.69] Just to hear them words, ear-piercing
[02:58.55] Like my earlobe stabbed with a needle for an earring
[03:01.14] Should I feel upset? You were dead to me 'fore you died
[03:03.84] Me? Tear no shed
[03:05.04] Should I have made a mural at your funeral?
[03:07.14] Had your coffin draped with a hero's flag?
[03:09.28] Where the fuck you were at
[03:10.14] When De'Angelo done hurt me real bad at the Rio Grande?
[03:13.21] Never met your grandkids, fucking coward
[03:15.37] Only gut you had was from your stomach fat
[03:17.32] I couldn't see your ass going to Heaven
[03:19.12] So I'm asking for a pass to go to Hell
[03:21.14] So I can whip your fucking ass
[03:22.76] I hate that I'll never get to say, "I hate you", to your face
[03:24.97] No coming back from where I'm going
[03:26.69] Sky is dark, my soul is black, hand on the shovel
[03:28.68] Dig with the blade of it then I step on the metal
[03:30.82] Vendetta to settle, tell the Devil
[03:32.52] I'm leaving Heaven (yeah)
[03:36.68] I'm leaving Heaven (you know, I should dig your motherfucking ass up)
[03:41.08] Angels won't find me (just to spit in your fucking face)
[03:45.10] Where I am going
[03:47.20] (Holding my baby pictures up like you're proud of me)
[03:49.46] I'm leaving heaven (fuck you, bitch)
[03:53.43] I'm leaving heaven (you know what? Maybe if I had had you)
[03:57.56] Angels won't find me (I wouldn't have went through half the shit I went through)
[04:00.72] (So I blame you)
[04:01.85] Where I am going (or maybe I should say, thank you)
[04:06.35] ('Cause I wouldn't have been me)
[04:07.68] So you better, you better run (yeah)
[04:12.07] You better, you better run (so I'ma let it go now, rest in peace)
[04:16.56] You better, you better run (cocksucker)
[04:20.57] You better, you better run (haha, see you in Hell)
[04:23.53]
