Temporary

[Intro: Eminem & Hailie Jade]

A lot of people ask me

Am I afraid of death?

The truth is, I think what scares me the most

Is not being able to say all the things I wanna say to you when I'm no longer here

So this song is for Hailie, for when that day comes

Where's Hailie? Where's she at?

This ain't Hailie

Who is it?

It's a monster (Ahh)

[Verse 1: Skylar Grey, Hailie Jade & Eminem]

I've been waiting all night for the sunrise

To take away the dark sky

You the dad monster and them are the baby monsters and I'm the mom monster (Oh)

All it takes is a new day sometimes

To get me in a better state of mind

Give me a kiss, monster, give me a kiss

Love you (I love you)

[Pre-Chorus: Skylar Grey]

If I could just fall asleep

I'd be lost in a dream

But right now, it's misery

And I just have to remember

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

That when a heart breaks, it ain't broken forever

The pieces will grow back together

And in time, I'll be fine

The tears are temporary

[Verse 2: Eminem]

Yeah, so Hailie Jade, I wrote you this song

To help you cope with life now that I'm gone

How should I start? Just wanna say

Look after Alaina, Stevie, and Uncle Nate

And, sweetie, be strong, I know I was your rock

And I still am, saying goodbye is just not

Ever easy, but why you crying? Just stop

Hailie, baby, dry your eye, this is not

Forever

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

That when a heart breaks, it ain't broken forever

The pieces will grow back together

And in time, I'll be fine

The tears are temporary

[Post-Chorus: Hailie Jade, Skylar Grey, Eminem & Kim Scott]

Daddy (Ooh)

What? (Ooh)

When, I used to have this when I was a little kid (Ooh)

Baby, are you okay? (Ooh)

[Verse 3: Eminem]

Yeah, and you will get over me and move on

You can play me on repeat on a song

But don't you dare shed a tear, what'd I tell you?

"Straighten up, little soldier," them times when I held you

Jade, it'll be okay, baby, I'm here, hey

I'm watching you right now, baby girl, I vow

I will protect you, your guardian angel

As hard as this may feel, us parting is painful

And, darling, the rain will, drive you insane, still

You will remain strong, Hailie, just hang on

It won't be too long, I need you to move on

And remember, it will get better

'Cause time heals and when a

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

When a heart breaks, it ain't broken forever

The pieces will grow back together

And in time, I'll be fine

The tears are temporary

The bad days will start to get better

Then we'll be laughin' together

And tonight, when I cry

The tears are temporary

[Post-Chorus: Eminem, Skylar Grey & Hailie Jade]

I know this big girl (Ooh)

And she's really pretty (Ooh)

You know what her name is?

Hailie (Ooh)

Hailie, how did you know? (Ooh)

'Cause

[Verse 4: Eminem & Hailie Jade]

Yeah, and if there's days where you wanna just lock yourself in your room and cry

Just think about how when you were little, how you and I

Back and forth to the studio, we used to drive

You strapped in the backseat 'cause you were my

Little sidekick, yeah, sweetie, I know this hurts

Bean, I'm wishing your pain away

Remember this, Hailie Jade

There's gonna be rainy days

I promise you'll get through 'em and make it regardless

Fuck it, Jade, I'll be honest

I knew that you was gonna take this the hardest

Sweetie, get up, I know that this is breaking your heart, it's

The hardest thing I've ever wrote (Daddy)

Hailie, sweetheart, it's okay for you to let me go

Baby, I promise you that when a

[Chorus: Skylar Grey]

When a heart breaks, it ain't broken forever

The pieces will grow back together

And in time, I'll be fine

The tears are temporary

The bad days will start to get better

Then we'll be laughin' together

And tonight when I cry

The tears are temporary

[Post-Chorus: Eminem, Skylar Grey & Hailie Jade]

What's your favorite song? (Ooh)

My favorite song, Daddy, is your favorite song (Ooh)

Mine and your favorite song, but

On the radio, I like this part

It's your favorite part, Dad (Ooh)

[Outro: Hailie Jade & Eminem]

You're taping me, bitch

I got you on tape cussin'

Can you hear?

Yep

No, bitch

No what?

No, I said, I said, "No, bitch"

Okay, no cussing
