Lyrics

[00:00.00] Eminem - The Apple
[00:00.50]
[00:01.86] I'm a little nutty and I know it
[00:02.47] but if you go back and take a look at my history
[00:05.04] you will see that I'm not the only one who's off his rocker
[00:07.80] there were many before me
[00:10.24]
[00:11.06] I was always labelled the black sheep of the family
[00:13.06] what a bad seed I grow to be
[00:15.57] but if you take a look at us now
[00:17.34] you'll see the apple didn't fall too far from the tree
[00:19.91]
[00:20.83] (haha)
[00:24.28] alright, look
[00:25.91] I'ma tell you the story from my side
[00:28.63] maybe you'll understand
[00:30.26] check it out
[00:31.01]
[00:31.24] you done witnessed unexplainable shit
[00:33.21] too insane to explain
[00:34.59] people run from what the just don't get
[00:36.43] maybe Shady shoulda just hit 'em with a little bit
[00:38.72] did I spit too soon? Should I of spoon fed 'em it?
[00:41.57] but I was just so eager to prove I was even worth
[00:44.64] being in the same league or the room with
[00:46.87] of the people of whom I was in
[00:48.87] every now and then I look up like I was seeking approval
[00:51.85] was it because of the pigment of my skin
[00:54.46] or was it a figment of my imagination
[00:57.15] maybe it bothered me more than it did them
[00:59.48] maybe it wasn't a big deal back then
[01:02.08] but to me it was, see what it was was
[01:04.33] I had developed the complex from being judged
[01:07.02] Proof spit his verse, now I'm next, let's see who
[01:09.86] I'm in the booth staring back to see who's mugs
[01:12.57] I get a reaction from, usually the first thumb was from Proof
[01:15.58] and the rest of the group backed him up
[01:17.57] and no one lied to each other cause none of us had deals
[01:20.30] it was real, we just wanted tickets for that meal
[01:22.67]
[01:23.11] Sometimes I feel like it's just me
[01:25.55] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[01:28.12] but take a look at my family
[01:30.60] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[01:33.20] I said...
[01:33.43] sometimes I feel like it's just me
[01:35.82] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[01:38.39] but take a look at my family
[01:40.90] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[01:43.23]
[01:43.57] Ever since my mother was pregnant
[01:45.26] with her second egg cause she said
[01:47.34] that I had a baby sister who fell out of the window
[01:49.94] I was too young to remember
[01:51.43] Kansas City projects
[01:52.69] I was like 5, 6, and how come
[01:54.73] I remember Malcolm, Isaac, and Boogie
[01:57.16] if it was the projects in Missouri?
[01:59.00] cause those're my best friends until Isaac
[02:01.10] took my tricycle and my uncle Todd went to try to go get it back
[02:04.77] and ended up getting jumped and cut in the gut with a switch and 70-some stitches
[02:09.12] which is still, to this day
[02:10.95] why my mother still tries to show me some old fake picture
[02:13.93] of a fictitious little sister who never existed
[02:16.11] and this is why part of my life's so twisted
[02:19.80] but I can never be as sick as that bitch is
[02:22.40] and, by the way, that picture's one of my relatives
[02:24.65]
[02:25.14] Sometimes I feel like it's just me
[02:27.42] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[02:30.07] but take a look at my family
[02:32.50] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[02:35.14] I said...
[02:35.43] sometimes I feel like it's just me
[02:37.73] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[02:40.32] but take a look at my family
[02:42.82] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[02:44.96]
[02:45.55] You probably have to peel back layers upon layers of pain
[02:48.56] to see why everything I say is so insane
[02:51.31] what's different about my brain
[02:53.11] that separates me from other players in this game?
[02:55.73] on the surface, it may seem like a scheme
[02:58.13] or some sort of scam for me to get some damn sympathy
[03:00.84] but that's the last thing I need is for people
[03:03.28] to walk around feeling sorry for me (me)
[03:05.59] and I'm not a G, never claimed to be
[03:07.78] I gave my vest to Cashis,
[03:09.18] he'll need it more than me
[03:11.21] but we'll see, cause we ain't lookin' for beef
[03:13.37] but if it comes our way, what do we, turn the other cheek?
[03:16.24] come on
[03:16.78]
[03:16.98] Sometimes I feel like it's just me
[03:19.07] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[03:21.62] but take a look at my family
[03:24.09] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[03:26.80] I said...
[03:26.95] sometimes I feel like it's just me
[03:29.35] sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
[03:32.00] but take a look at my family
[03:34.36] cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
[03:36.71]
[03:37.06] Yeah
[03:40.87] and I'm the crazy one, right?
[03:44.08] whatever!
[03:45.94] then let me be the crazy one!
[03:48.59] (sounds)
[03:54.48] cuckoo! cuckoo!
[03:57.36] tweet!
[03:59.03] haha
[04:01.61]
