Artist | Eminem |
Album | SHADYXV |
[00:05.47] | Another day, another hotel, the inside of it is nice though, oh well |
[00:09.31] | This is my life so as I go and try on clothes for tonight's show |
[00:12.56] | To see how far that line goes, still blows my mind, show business |
[00:15.97] | Guess I'll just never get, so this shit just always feels so weird |
[00:19.03] | To this day because all's I ever did |
[00:20.62] | Was just say the shit I would've wanted to hear |
[00:22.51] | Other people say to me when I was a kid |
[00:24.28] | So please don't make me some type of hero |
[00:26.24] | Cause I will say some ol' inspirational shit in a real way |
[00:28.55] | But still will have a field day with some of the fucked up shit |
[00:31.36] | In the world and tell it to suck on the dick, cause I still make fun |
[00:33.99] | Of a sitch someone's in like a son of a bitch at another's expense |
[00:36.70] | I'm fuckin' relentless as fuck when it comes to this pen |
[00:38.93] | I struggle with coming to senses, stuck on the fence |
[00:40.92] | It's a balance beam, if I seem unbalanced, it's challenging |
[00:43.65] | When my conscience allows me to think the most foulish |
[00:45.76] | Childish things without even blinking, without even thinkin' about |
[00:48.52] | All the stinkin' amounts of people that seems to be reachin' |
[00:51.12] | But the crowds, they're screaming |
[00:52.21] | And The Palace sold out this evening |
[00:53.80] | But now it's lay me down to sleeping |
[00:55.49] | Is it really my soul to keep, or have I sold it cheap? |
[00:58.42] | Is it greed? And do I take more than I need? |
[01:00.26] | When I joke of leavin', but keep overachievin' |
[01:02.87] | Cause what it's stole from me I've barely broken even |
[01:05.34] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[01:09.88] | Living in hope or dire need |
[01:12.63] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[01:16.91] | Living in hope or dire need |
[01:23.68] | So a martyr is how I paint myself |
[01:25.17] | And through my heroin ordeals I’m so vein I want my respect |
[01:27.67] | But ignore the butterfly effect that comes from my dialect |
[01:30.53] | 'Til I sit in the dark and I reflect |
[01:32.41] | And my reflection shows what it's like here |
[01:34.14] | Cause this vanity, surrounded by all these lights |
[01:36.70] | Yeah, it's like a nightmare |
[01:38.02] | I said, this vanity surrounded by these lights is a night mirror |
[01:41.28] | And I don't like how I see myself, so I open the Bible to Isaiah |
[01:44.95] | Cause I swear to Christ there are nights when I stay up and might |
[01:48.24] | Say a prayer twice just to make sure God hears |
[01:50.32] | Cause this ice layer I skate on's a nice way of putting it |
[01:53.24] | But I like stayin' feistier than a triceratops and like a dice player |
[01:56.51] | I got a nice paradise here, sealed off in my lair |
[02:00.03] | Away from the bullshit good safe place to sit and talk shit from |
[02:02.97] | And this house, is quite bare, but it ain't when you can't leave it |
[02:05.71] | And I feel so isolated, it's nice I made it |
[02:07.51] | But it's like I paid the price of fame twice, I hate it |
[02:09.79] | So I bitch about my life then make another song |
[02:12.09] | Vicious cycle ain't it, then wonder why I stay famous |
[02:14.58] | I keep walkin' the line, this goldfish bowl gets old |
[02:16.89] | But especially if you don't know |
[02:18.15] | If your conscience is sayin' I told you so |
[02:19.64] | Cause you don't even know anymore |
[02:21.03] | If you got the soul of a soldier, or you sold your soul |
[02:23.59] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[02:28.29] | Living in hope or dire need |
[02:31.10] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[02:35.26] | Living in hope or dire need |
[02:41.88] | And from here you look so small |
[02:44.69] | Hovering high above us all |
[02:48.38] | Please come back to me |
[02:56.06] | I still remember the times when |
[02:57.38] | They were simpler than the rhymes of |
[02:59.10] | Vanilla Ice were when I was just killin' the mics |
[03:01.34] | I'll never forget what that feeling was like |
[03:03.46] | I miss those times now when I was just starting out |
[03:05.74] | Without a dime and, now I'm diamond |
[03:07.90] | I can't even stage dive in the crowd anymore now when I've been |
[03:10.53] | Stuck in this house hibernatin' |
[03:12.24] | Hate even going outside |
[03:13.87] | It sucks, sometimes I just wanna walk into Target and look at shit and browse, I don't even want to buy nothin' |
[03:18.64] | I just wanna fuckin' walk around inside it |
[03:20.27] | Look how excited I sound when I get to talkin' bout life and |
[03:22.88] | Everything about it I miss, which now reminds me |
[03:25.47] | Put a thousand lighters in the sky for the Outsidaz |
[03:27.91] | Wow, I must have had Alzheimer's |
[03:29.91] | Long time since I shouted them out, 'bout time |
[03:31.80] | Cause it's been on my mind lately how |
[03:33.70] | Zee, you always supported me |
[03:36.06] | You vouched, I will never forget that and |
[03:38.17] | How you guys accepted me for me and Pace |
[03:40.42] | I love you too, you slept on my couch |
[03:43.04] | And I've been thinkin' 'bout the time when I slept on the floor at The Outhouse |
[03:45.87] | Rhyming's all we ever wanted to do |
[03:47.46] | And regardless how life has turned out |
[03:49.35] | Inside I'll, I'll always be an outsider |
[03:51.23] | My life has been turned inside out but I |
[03:53.03] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[03:57.19] | Living in hope or dire need |
[04:00.19] | I know, it's a fine, fine line |
[04:04.04] | Living in hope or dire need |
