eminem legacy
- Tell me where to go, tell me what to do
- I'll be right there for you
- Tell me what to say, no matter if it's true
- I'll say it all for you
- [Verse 1:]
- I used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling
- Why am I so differently wired? Am I a martian?
- What kind of twisted experiment am I involved in?
- 'Cause I don't belong in this world
- That's why I'm scoffing at authority, defiant often
- Flying off at the handle at my mom, no dad
- So I am non compliant at home, at school I'm just shy and awkward
- And I don't need no goddamn psychologist
- Tryna diagnose why I have all these underlying problems
- Thinking he can try and solve them
- I'm outside chalking up drawings on the sidewalk
- And in the front drive talking to myself
- Either that or inside hiding off in the corner somewhere quiet
- Trying not to be noticed 'cause I'm crying and sobbing
- I had a bad day at school so I ain't talking
- Some cocksucker shoved me into a fucking locker
- 'Cause he said that I eyeballed him
- And if you fall, I'll get you there
- I'll be your savior from all the wars that are fought
- Inside your world
- Please have faith in my words
- 'Cause this is my legacy, legacy, eh
- This is my legacy, legacy, eh
- There's no guarantee,
- It's not up to me,
- We can only see
- This is my legacy, legacy
- Legacy, legacy
- [Verse 2:]
- I used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling
- Why am I so differently wired in my noggin?
- 'Cause sporadic as my thoughts come, it's mind boggling
- 'Cause I obsess on everything in my mind small shit
- Bothers me but not my father, he said Sayonara then split
- But I don't give a shit I'm fine long as
- There's batteries in my Walkman nothing's the matter with me
- Shit look on the bright side at least I ain't walking
- I bike ride through the neighborhood of my apartment
- Complex on a ten speed which I've acquired parts that I
- Find in the garbage, a frame, then put tires on it
- Headphones on look straight ahead if kids try and start shit
- But if this is all there is for me life offers
- Why bother even try and put up a fight, it's nonsense
- But I think a light bulb just lit up in my conscience
- What about them rhymes I've been jottin'
- They're kinda giving me confidence
- Instead of tryna escape through my comics,
- Why don't I just blast a little something like Onyx
- To put me in the mood to wanna fight and write songs that
- Say what I wanna say to the kid that said that I eyeballed him
- Grab hold of my balls like that's right fight's on bitch
- Who would've knew from the moment I turned the mic on that
- I could be iconic, and my conquest
- Is word to Phife Dawg from a tribe called Quest
- This is my legacy, legacy, eh
- This is my legacy, legacy, eh
- There's no guarantee,
- It's not up to me,
- We can only see
- This is my legacy, legacy
- Legacy, legacy
- [Verse 3:]
- I used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling
- Now I think the fact that I'm differently wired's awesome
- 'Cause if I wasn't I wouldn't be able to work
- Words like this and connect lines like crosswords
- And use my enemy's words as strength
- To try and draw from, and get inspired off em
- 'Cause all my life I was told and taught I am not shit
- By you wack fucking giant sacks of lying dog shit
- Now you shut up bitch, I am talking
- Thought I was full of horseshit and now
- You fucking worship the ground in which I am walking
- Me against the world so what? I'm Brian Dawkins
- Versus the whole 0 and 16 Lions offense
- So bring on the Giants Falcons and Miami Dolphins
- It's the body bag game bitch I'm supplying coffins
- 'Cause you dicks, butt kiss, a bunch of Brian Baldingers
- You gon' die a ball licker I've been diabolical
- With this dialogue since 99 Rawkus
- You don't respect the legacy I leave behind y'all can
- Suck a dick, the day you beat me pigs'll fly out my ass
- In a flying saucer full of Italian sausage
- The most high exalting and I ain't halting
- Till I die of exhaustion inhale my exhaust fumes
- The best part about me is I am not you
- I'm me and I'm the Fire Marshall and this is my
- Legacy, legacy, eh
- This is my legacy, legacy, eh
- There's no guarantee, it's not up to me, we can only see
- This is my legacy, legacy
- Legacy, legacy
