[Intro]
[Eminem]
Welp, we did it now
[Slim Shady]
I know, right?
It's beautiful, ain't it?
[Eminem]
Yeah, you happy now, bitch?
[Slim Shady]
Yep
[Eminem]
Alright, you got what you wanted
[Slim Shady]
Yeah, what?
[Eminem]
Let me go
[Slim Shady]
Ha, never
[Verse]
[Eminem]
Why does it feel like I'm always being tortured?
The bad apple spoils the whole orchard
Used to read comic books to learn more words
'Cause deep down, I'm a dork, just a core nerd
Meaning nerd to the core 'til I'm cornered
Then I'm the coroner
What shot is this? First, second?
[Slim Shady]
It's your third
[Eminem]
Vision is more blurred
Speech is more slurred
Can't even form words
It's like a dream up inside of a dream I'm trapped in
It's worse than I could've imagined, it's madness
Can't wake up, try my damnedest, but old habits are coming back
And now transgenders attack us, frontwards and backwards
They laugh and throw midgets at us (Ha)
[Slim Shady]
This ain't no dream now, huh? See what I mean now?
You see how they're tryna make me out to be some kind of mean, vile, obscene, foul prick?
I kick one freestyle 'bout beatin' down a special-needs child and these people freak out (Timmy)
[Eminem]
Told you we'd get slaughtered for sayin', "********"
[Slim Shady]
Aw, Marshall's getting a conscience
[Eminem]
Fuck you
[Slim Shady]
This may come as a shock or have you astonished, regardless
Here's the thing 'bout ******** people
[Eminem]
What?
[Slim Shady]
They don't fuckin' know they're ********
[Eminem]
Well, okay, you wanna fat shame
Bitch, two can play that game
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
You wanna judge people?
[Slim Shady]
Yeah
[Eminem]
Matter of fact, ain't you the same one who hated bullies calling you bad names?
[Slim Shady]
Yep
[Eminem]
Then you turned around and did the exact same
[Slim Shady]
So?
[Eminem]
Just immature and literally, you're still mentally thirteen
And still thirsty for some controversy
You're still pickin' on Christopher Reeves
[Slim Shady]
Yeah, but you're me, and we're a team
So that means, we're in cahoots
That's conspiracy to commit murder lyrically
So clearly, you're the accessory like jewelry
You ain't the judge or the jury, you're just as guilty
[Eminem]
You rip on paraplegics, man, seriously?
[Slim Shady]
Oh, bitch, it's a joke
[Eminem]
No, it's not, it's embarrassing
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
Like David Carradine found with a pair of jeans at his ankles and belt 'round his larynx
[Slim Shady]
I know, it's a scary scene
They're coming with everything
Little people are trolling me
[Eminem]
Ha
[Slim Shady]
They saying they've had it
[Eminem]
What?
[Slim Shady]
Up to here with me
[Eminem]
Oh, hilarity
[Slim Shady]
Come on!
[Eminem]
Nah, do your thing
Fuck deaf people, yeah!
[Slim Shady]
Well, between me and you
"I think they've had it up to here with me too"
[Eminem]
What the fuck?
[Slim Shady]
Sorry I'm not perfect as you, Marshall
[Eminem]
Punching down on little people?
[Slim Shady]
Yeah
[Eminem]
Not cool
[Slim Shady]
Whoops
[Eminem]
You just sound like a dick
[Slim Shady]
Wait, nah, fool
[Eminem]
What?
[Slim Shady]
When I say, "Fuck midgets," I mean Ja Rule
[Eminem]
Oh
[Slim Shady]
And I know that Chris Reeves song was recorded in 2004 for Encore
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
Fuck'd you take it off for?
[Eminem]
'Cause he died
[Slim Shady]
Man, that motherfucker did that bullshit on purpose to ruin the song for us (Man)
[Eminem]
Man, I never seen a bigger pussy than you
Bitch, look at all the shit the media's puttin' me through
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
'Cause of all the fuck shit that you pushed me to do
[Slim Shady]
Me?
[Eminem]
Shoulda knew when I found you, you were just too good to be true
[Slim Shady]
Hmm
[Eminem]
That's how we end up in these quagmires
You said you had my back, liar
[Slim Shady]
But I helped you get your stacks higher
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
That's diamond sales like sapphires
Rap buyers at Meijers, packed lines of admirers
Now they say you lack ire
That's why your satire backfires
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
Flat tires, no longer that guy you were prior to this
Yeah, and I scare you 'cause
[Eminem]
Why?
[Slim Shady]
I'm who you used to be
[Eminem]
Who?
[Slim Shady]
The you who didn't crumble under the scrutiny
[Eminem]
Wait, what?
[Slim Shady]
When it was you and me
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
I gave you power to use me as an excuse to be evil
[Eminem]
I know
[Slim Shady]
You created me to say everything you didn't have the balls to say
[Eminem]
Yep
[Slim Shady]
What you were thinkin', but in a more diabolic way
You fed me pills and a bottle of alcohol a day
[Eminem]
Okay
[Slim Shady]
Made me too strong for you and lost control of me
[Eminem]
You're right
[Slim Shady]
I took over you totally
You were socially awkward 'til you molded me
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
You was a loner, a nobody
'Cause of me, you didn't take shit from nobody
Now look at you
[Eminem]
What?
[Slim Shady]
Now you just a punk
[Eminem]
Man
[Slim Shady]
Little scaredy cat
[Eminem]
Word
[Slim Shady]
Got you shook like Shakira's ass
[Eminem]
Yeah
[Slim Shady]
To look at your reflection staring back
Bitch
[Eminem]
Uh-huh
[Slim Shady]
It's just a mirror, relax
[Eminem]
Man, you're so full of shit, you need MiraLAX
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
Open your mouth and shit flies out (Uh) just lies
You thinkin' you can whip my ass, undo these zipties (Word)
You can just undo my feet and keep my hands tied
'Cause like an avalanche, I'd still win by a landslide
[Slim Shady]
Oh, you think so, bitch?
[Eminem]
Yeah, I know so
[Slim Shady]
Okay, your hands and feet, I let 'em both go
Yeah, fuck now, ho-
[Eminem]
Give me that gun!
[Slim Shady]
No, don't, ah-!
[Eminem]
Rear naked chokehold!
[Slim Shady]
Ah, let me go, yo!
Here, take it, bozo!
[Eminem]
Yeah!
[Slim Shady]
Queer bait, you homo!
[Eminem]
You ready?
[Slim Shady]
No, don't shoot!
[Eminem]
Here we go!
[Slim Shady]
Bro, no, no!
[Eminem]
Now say you're sorry and you didn't mean any of it
[Slim Shady]
I'm sorry Marshall's a pussy, he's Dre and Jimmy's puppet!
[Eminem]
What?
[Slim Shady]
Sorry he gives a fuck, but pretends he doesn't!
[Eminem]
Alright, you piece of shit, that does it!
[Slim Shady]
Uh-oh
[Eminem]
Yeah!
[Slim Shady]
Wait!
[Eminem]
Bitch, this is for him
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
Christopher, MGK, Nick, and for Limp Bizkit and them
Midgets and Ben—
[Slim Shady]
Man, please!
[Eminem]
'Zino, in addition to him
Will Smith and to Canibus, if you're listening, this is the end
[Slim Shady]
Okay, okay, I'll stop!
[Eminem]
So to Jamar and Ja Rule and to all
My feuds including ma
[Slim Shady]
What?
[Eminem]
I'm welcoming you to my
[Slim Shady]
No, no!
[Eminem]
Last hoorah, I bid you goodbye
[Slim Shady]
Come on, man, don't do this!
[Eminem]
Murder suicide
Killshot, booyaka, cock sucker!
Coup de grâce, motherfucker!
[Outro]
[Eminem]
Oh! Whoa, what the fuck?
Come on, come on, come on, come on...
[Paul]
Yeah?
[Eminem]
Paul
You're not gonna fucking believe this, bro
I had this dream, it was fucking crazy!
It was like, the old me came back on the new me
And took over my brain and had me sayin' all this fucked-up shit
About little people and Caitlyn Jenner and
PC police were chasin' me
And fucking Gen Z was tryna kill me
And quadriplegics, and Christopher Reeves
And I was saying all this fucked-up shit
And I couldn't stop sayin' it
And then I wake up and it was like I was still dreamin'-
[Paul]
Fuck you!
[Eminem]
Wait-!
Hahaha
