[00:17.00]
[00:17.31]Take me as I em my friends,
[00:20.39]ain't gon' change, won't be no Em,
[00:23.49]rock these songs, rock these shows,
[00:26.62]only good life I know
[00:28.82]
[00:29.17]I was in seventh grade when I heard the Slim Shady LP,
[00:32.67]ya my mom brought it down when I was ironing, irony,
[00:36.15]getting out the wrinkles, just a little kid in middle school,
[00:39.33]sink my teeth in anything just to think I'm cool, riding the bus,
[00:42.89]I feel the rush but I still don't give a ****,
[00:45.31]ya I wish I could agree but I've already had enough,
[00:48.36]I've already given up from playing the same game,
[00:51.49]every interview I feel like I'm saying the same thing, like,
[00:54.69]Em was great, yea he paved the way for me,
[00:57.86]he was inspiration for everybody from A to Z,
[01:00.88]but they keep relating me, I can't get away,
[01:03.53]chasing me, （all day long）, I hear it, （all day long）,
[01:06.92]and now the masters thinks that asher wants to be a marshall mathers,
[01:10.41]they say "ashers not a rapper, na hes actually just a actor",
[01:13.53]cuz we have the same complexion and similar voice inflection,
[01:16.55]it's easy to see the pieces and reach for that connection,
[01:19.79]every minute, each hour of everyday,
[01:22.74]I'm constantly on the fence defending my own name,
[01:25.89]explaining we are not the same,
[01:27.32]not much that I can say, except that I'm sick of it,
[01:30.03]critics arrantly sparked up a flame, it's on
[01:32.60]
[01:32.91]Take me as I em my friends,
[01:35.52]ain't gon' change, won't be no Em,
[01:38.57]rock these songs, rock these shows,
[01:41.73]only good life I know... （AY!） （AY!）
[01:45.05]
[01:45.39]Take me as I em my friends,
[01:47.93]ain't gon' change, won't be no Em,
[01:51.02]rock these songs, rock these shows,
[01:54.29]only good life I know... （AY!） （AY!）
[01:57.49]
[01:57.78]now don't get it twisted, I've definatley benefitted,
[02:00.23]it's like suddenly everyone wants to hear what I've been spittin,
[02:03.77]it's so different, the image they don't get it,
[02:06.67]it's simple I'm just a kid who wants to rap to make a livin,
[02:09.73]but Em was in it way before I committed ,
[02:12.89]and his lyrics were the shit so I really gotta come with it,
[02:16.13]but each critics been pickin apart my writins,
[02:19.23]and if it's not up to par then ashers par is just a gimmick,
[02:22.52]is it my fault must I be more convincing?,
[02:25.43]ya'll talk all you want, never halt me from my mission,
[02:28.51]using his ammunition, would you please keep dissin me,
[02:31.94]（all day long）, I hear it, （all day long）,
[02:34.66]and yea the haters wanna hate because I made it and I'm famous,
[02:38.45]but until you take my place,
[02:39.87]ya'll never know what it takes to make a record for respect,
[02:43.10]take a second before you inspect,
[02:44.64]when you look like someone else then what the **** do you expect,
[02:47.18]I just want to be accepted as the illest in the game,
[02:50.25]but it's harder for an artist creating his own lane,
[02:53.61]that's anonymous with his rhyming and combine with perfect timing,
[02:56.64]all the time all that's declining and about to explode
[02:59.58]
[02:59.94]Take me as I em my friends,
[03:03.06]ain't gon' change, won't be no Em,
[03:06.19]rock these songs, rock these shows,
[03:09.40]only good life I know... （AY!） （AY!）
[03:12.61]

[03:15.55]ain't gon' change, won't be no Em,
[03:18.66]rock these songs, rock these shows,
[03:21.84]only good life I know... （AY!） （AY!）
[03:24.49]
[03:25.22]so **** it that's all I got, theres nothing else for me to say,
[03:27.91]if I don't confront the problem it will never go away,
[03:31.10]unless it is addressed there is nothing left for me to do,
[03:34.17]its impossible rejecting an elephant in the room,
[03:37.41]say goodbye to all the bullshit, notions preconceived
[03:40.63]sworn to all the wrongs, coulda swore they knew me,
[03:43.59]if you have no further questions and can't think of other thoughts,
