So this is it
this is what I wished for
just isnt how I invisioned it
fame to the point of imprisonment
I just though that shitd be different
theres something changed a minute
there I got a whiff of it
I started to inhale it,
smell it,
started sniffin it
and it became my cocaine
I just couldnt quit!
I just wanted a little bit
then it turned me to a monster
I became a hippocrate,
concert after concert
I was raking in the dough,
rolling in green
had the game hemmed up like a sewing machine
but I was loosing my freedom,
there was nowhere for me
to not going and be seen
and just go and be me
and there was no inbetween
you either loved it or hate it,
every cd critics gave it the 3,
then 3 years later they go back and re-rate it
and called the slim shady LP the greatest,
the marshall mathers was a classic,
the eminem show was fantastic
but encore just didnt have the calibre to match it,
I guess enough time just aint passed yet
a couple of more years that shitll be ILLMATIC
and 8 years later Im still at it,
divorced,
re-married,
a felon,
a father,
sleeping pill addict.
And this is real talk,
I feel like the incredible hulk,
my back has been broke and I can still walk
