Eminem made his fans “cry like a baby” after the rapper addressed his death in a new song he wrote for his daughter Hailie Jade.
The rapper released his highly anticipated studio album on Friday (July 12) and hip-hop fans have been analyzing the 19-track project ever since.
The record, titled “The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” promised to kill his alter ego Slim Shady once and for all.

We first got to know Slim in 1999 with the huge hit “My Name Is” and a year later with “The Real Slim Shady”.
As you probably know, the provocative character rocked a bleached blonde haircut and a “I don’t give a shit” attitude.
And throughout the new album, no one is safe, as Eminem takes aim at P Diddy and even his own children.
While most of the project features a rejuvenated Slim Shady, one track features Eminem making a heartbreaking confession to his daughter in the event of his death.
In “Temporary,” the father of three tries to calm Hailie by telling her that life after his death will be difficult, but it will be okay.
At the beginning of the track we hear an old recording of a conversation between young Eminem and Hailie when she was a child.

The introduction between the two reads: “A lot of people ask me if I’m afraid of death. The truth is that I think what scares me most is that I can’t say everything.”
“I want to tell you when I’m no longer here. So this song is for Hailie, in case that day comes
“Where is Hailie? Where is she? That’s not Hailie. Who is it?
“It’s a monster.”
He raps: “Take care of Eleana, Stevie and Uncle Nate / And, honey, be strong; I know I was your rock and I still am / Saying goodbye is never easy / Why are you crying? Just stop / Hailie, baby, dry your eyes, this ain’t forever.”
Fans have since taken to social media to say that “the title should have come with a warning.”
“I didn’t think I would cry today to Eminem’s new album but holy shit. I was rooting for the music until ‘Temporary’ came on and I just had to start crying holy shit. Such a beautiful song,” one person commented.
“Eminem’s song ‘Temporary’ is truly a tearjerker, man,” wrote a second.
A third wrote: “Why did you do that Eminem? You made me cry like a baby. ‘Temporary’ is so beautiful…”
The rapper has three children with his ex-wife Kim Scott: Hailie Jade Scott, Alaina Scott and Stevie Laine Scott.
Meanwhile, the 28-year-old recently married her partner Evan McClintock and her 51-year-old father wore a tuxedo, dark glasses and Nike Air Jordans to the wedding.
That day he also experienced a touching moment with Hailie.
Eminem – “Temporary” – full lyrics
Intro (Eminem and Hailie)
Many people ask me: “Am I afraid of death?”
The truth is, I think what scares me most
Is not able to say all things
I want to tell you when I’m no longer here
So this song is for Hailie, for the day, when that day comes
Where is Hailie? Where is she?
This is not Hailie (Hailie)
Who is it?
It’s a monster (Hailie)
Verse 1 (Skylar Grey, Hailie Jade and Eminem)
I waited all night for the sunrise
To drive away the dark sky
Damn, Monster (Hailie)
I’m not a baby monster, I’m the mommy monster (Hailie)
Oh (Eminem)
Sometimes all it takes is a new day
To get me into a better state of mind
Give me a kiss, monster, give me a kiss, muahhh, love you (Eminem)
I love you (Hailie)
Pre-Chorus (Skylar Grey)
If only I could fall asleep
I would be lost in a dream
But at the moment it is misery
And I just have to remember
Choir (Skylar Grey)
When a heart breaks, it is not broken forever
The pieces will grow back together
And in time I will be fine
The tears are temporary
Verse 2 (Eminem)
Yes, so Hailie Jade, I wrote you this song
To help you cope with life now that I’m gone
How should I start? I just want to say
Take care of Eleana, Stevie and Uncle Nate
And, darling, be strong; I know I was your rock and I still am
Saying goodbye is never easy
Why are you crying? Just stop
Hailie, baby, dry your eyes, this is not forever
Choir (Skylar Grey)
When a heart breaks, it is not broken forever
The pieces will grow back together
And in time I will be fine
The tears are temporary
Post-Chorus (Skylar Grey, Hailie and Eminem)
Daddy (Ooh) (Hailie)
What? (Ooh) (Eminem)
I had this as a little kid (Ooh) (Hailie)
Baby, are you okay? (Ooh)
Verse 3 (Eminem)
Yes, and you will get over me and move on
You can play my song on repeat
But don’t you dare shed a tear when I tell you?
“Stand up, little soldier”
The times when I held you
Jade, it’s going to be okay, baby, I’m here, hey
I’m watching you right now, baby; I swear
I will protect you, your guardian angel
As hard as it may be, the farewell is painful
And darling, the rain will still drive you crazy
You will stay strong, Hailie, just hold on
It won’t be long now. You have to keep going
And remember, it gets better
Because times heal and when a
Choir (Skylar Grey)
When a heart breaks, it is not broken forever
The pieces will grow back together
And in time I will be fine
The tears are temporary
The bad days get better
And we will laugh together
And tonight when I cry
The tears are temporary
Post-Chorus (Hailie, Eminem and Skylar Grey)
I know that big girl (Ooh) (Eminem)
And she’s really pretty (Ooh) (Eminem)
Do you know her name? (Eminem)
Hailie (Oh) (Hailie)
Hailie, how did you know? (Ooh) (Eminem)
Verse 4 (Eminem)
Yes, and if there are days when you want to lock yourself in your room and cry
Just think of how you and I as children
We drove to the studio and back
You were strapped into the back seat because you were my
Little buddy, yes, sweetie, I know it hurts
Bean, I wish your pain goes away
Remember, Hailie Jade, there will be rainy days
I promise you will get through and make it no matter what happens
Fuck it Jade, I’ll be honest, I knew you would take this the hardest
Darling, get up. I know it’s breaking your heart.
The hardest thing I’ve ever written
Dad (Hailie)
Hailie, honey, it’s okay if you let me go
Baby, I promise you
Choir (Skylar Grey)
When a heart breaks, it is not broken forever
The pieces will grow back together
And in time I will be fine
The tears are temporary
The bad days get better
And we will laugh together
And tonight when I cry
The tears are temporary
Post-Chorus (Hailie, Eminem and Skylar Grey)
What’s your favorite song? (Ooh) (Eminem)
My favorite song is my favorite song and your favorite song (Ooh) (Hailie)
My and your favorite song? (Eminem)
Right here (Hailie)
This is your favorite part, daddy (Ooh) (Hailie)
Outro (Hailie and Eminem)
And you took me in, bitch (Hailie)
I caught you swearing on tape (Eminem)
Can you hear? (Hailie)
Yep (Eminem)
No, bitch (Hailie)
No, what? (Eminem)
No, I said no, I said no, bitch (Hailie)
OK, don’t swear, don’t swear (Eminem)
