Sep 24, 2015 You ain't ever seen, heard, smelled or met a real emcee Who's incredible or on the same pedestal as me - GOAT circa 2002
Sep 24, 2015 My songs can make you cry, take you by surprise And at the same time, make you dry your eyes with the same rhyme And then towards the end of the same verse: More pain inside of my brain, than the eyes of a little girl inside of a plane Aimed at the World Trade, standin' on Ronnie's grave, Screaming at the sky, till clouds gather as Clyde Mathers and Bonnie Jade
Sep 24, 2015 I do whatever it takes, when I'm with you I get the shakes My body aches when I ain't with you I have zero strength
Sep 24, 2015 Man I should've seen it comin. What'd I stick my penis up in? Would've ripped the prenup up if I'da seen what she was f---in, but f--- it it's over, there's no more reason to cry no more, I got my baby, baby, the only lady that I adore: Hailie. So sayonara, try tommorow, nice to know ya. My baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner. And suddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted, it's like the greatest gift you can give. The weight has been lifted... Now it don't feel like the world's on my shoulders, everyone's leanin on me. Cuz my baby knows that her daddy's a soldier. Nothing can take her from me...
Sep 24, 2015 First verse going through changes.. Went through a real hard time back then and was hard to listen to
Sep 24, 2015 Yep. Third verse of Sing For The Moment is full of great lines. They say music can alter moods and talk to you. Well can it load a gun up for you and c--- it too. Well if it can, and the next time you assault a dude. Just tell the judge it was my fault and I'll get sued. Music makes a great impact in peoples lives but it doesn't make you a killer.
Sep 24, 2015 I'm just so f---ing depressed, I just can't seem to get out this slump If I could just get over this hump but I need something to pull me out this dump I took my bruises, took my lumps, fell down and I got right back up But I need that spark to get psyched back up in order for me to pick the mic back up The depressed part always gets me. You can feel the pain in his voice. Em has so many great lines I kinda cringe when people start bitching about a line they dont like
Sep 24, 2015 x2 I don't know how or why or when And I ended up in this position I'm in I starting to feel distant again So I decided just to pick this pen Up and tried to make an attempt to vent, but I just can't admit Or come to grips, with the fact that I may be done with rap, I need a new outlet
Sep 24, 2015 Not even relatable for me but this really hit me as well.. one of the best things he has ever written.
Sep 24, 2015 All these plaques in my office, on the floor, stacked against the door, are they just metaphors for the odds of me coming back again? Cus all the accomplishments accolades awards and trophies just don't mean jack anymore if I'm here today and I'm gone tomorrow and I'm not gonna be... Wait...here comes my favorite lyric.. I'm the bad guy who makes fun of people that die! And hey heres a sequel to my mathers LP just to try to get people to buy! How's this for publicity stunt? This should be fun! Last album now cus after this you'll be officially done! The whole 4th verse of bad guy
Sep 24, 2015 You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em But you won't take the sting out these words before I say 'em Cause ain't no way I'mma let you stop me from causing mayhem I know most people find Not Afraid kinda corny, but this line is probably the best out of Recovery. I think one of the best things about Eminem is the way he gives live to words by the way he pronounces them and so on.
Sep 24, 2015 My life is full of empty promises And broken dreams I'm hoping things will look up But there ain't no job openings I feel discouraged, hungry and malnourished Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished And I'm sick of working dead end jobs with lame pay And I'm tired of being hired and fired the same day But f--- it, if you know the rules to the game play 'Cause when we die we know we're all going the same way It's cool to be the player, but it sucks to be the fan When all you need is bucks to be the man Plus a luxury sedan Too comfortable and roomy in a six But they threw me in the mix With all these gloomy lunatics Who walk around depressed And smoke a pound of ses a day And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today My daughter wants to throw the ball but I'm too stressed to play Live half my life and throw the rest away
