8 mile


[Verso 1 - Eminem]
Sometimes
I just feel like - quittin,
I still might
why do I put up this fight?
why do I still write?
sometimes its hard enough
just dealing with real life
sometimes I wanna jump
on stage and just kill mics
and show these people
what my level of skills like
but I'm still white,
sometimes I just hate life
something ain't right,
hit the break lights
facing this stage fright,
drawing a blank like
"uhh da da da duhh
it ain't my fault
cry-ing eye balls,
my inside crawl"
And I clam up
I just slam shut,
I just can't do it
my whole manhoods
just been stripped
I have just been evict
so I must in get
hope to bust in,
split,
man fuck this shit
yo- I'm going the fuck home
world on my shoulders as
I run back to this 8 Mile Road

[Ritornello - Eminem]
I'm a man, I'ma make a new plan
time for me to just stand up,
and travel new land
time for me to just take
matters in to my own hands
once on move on
from these track,
I'll never look back
(8 Mile Road)
and I'm gone,
and I know right where I'm going
sorry mama I'm grown
I must travel alone
ain't gonna follow no footsteps,
I'm making my own
only way I know how to escape
from this 8 Mile Road

[Verso 2 - Eminem]
Walking these train tracks,
trying to regain back
the spirit I had 'fore
I go back to the same crap
to the same plant,
in the same pants
trying to chase rap,
gotta move ASAP
get a new plan,
mamas got a new man
poor little baby sister,
she don't understand
sits in front of the TV,
buries her nose in the pad
and just colors till the
crayon gets dull in her hand
while she colors her big brother
and mother and dad
ain't no telling what really
goes on in her little head
wish I could be the daddy
that niether one of us had
but I keep running from something
I never wanted so bad
sometimes I get upset,
cause I ain't blew up yet
it's like I grew
but I ain't grown
these two nuts yet
don't gotta rep my step,
don't got enough pep
the pressures too much man
I'm just trying
to do what's best
and I try, sit alone and cry,
yo I'm on telling god
not a moment goes by,
that I don't prey to the sky
please I'm beggin you god,
please don't let me be pigeon
holding no regular job
yo I hope you can
hear me homey,
wherever you are
yo I'm telling you dawg,
I bailing this trailer tomorrow
tell my mother I love her
and kiss baby sister goodbye
say "whenever
you need me
baby I'm never too far"
but yo I got to get out there,
the only way I know
And I'ma be back for you
the second that I blow
on everything I own
I'll make it on my own
off to work I go,
back to this 8 Mile Road

[Ritornello - Eminem]

[Verso 3 - Eminem]
You gotta live it to feel it
You didn't, you wouldn't get it
Or see what the big deal is
Why it was and it still is
To be walking this borderline
of Detroit's city limits
It's different
and it's a certain significance
A certificate of authenticity
You'd never even see
But it's everything to me
It's my credibility
You'd never seen, heard,
smelled or met a real mc
Who's incredible or on
the same pedestal as me
But yet still unsigned
Having a rough time
Sit on the porch with all
my friends and
kick dumb rhymes
Go to work and
serve mc's in the lunch line
When it comes crunch time
Where did my punch lines go?
Who must I show?
To bust my flow
Where must I go?
Who must I know?
Or am I just
another crab in the bucket
Cuz I ain't having to run with
this little rabbits but fuck it
Maybe I need
a new outlet
I'm starting to doubt shit
I'm feeling a little skeptical
who I hang out with
I live like a bum,
yo my clothes ain't about shit
At the Salvation Army
trying to salvage an outfit
And it's cold
Trying to travel this road
Plus I feel like
I'm always stuck
in this battling mode
My defenses are so up
The one thing I don't want
Is pity from no one
This city is no fun
There is no sun
And it's so dark
Sometimes I just feel like
I'm being pulled apart
From each one of my limbs
By each one of my friends
It's enough to just make me
wanna jump out of my skin
Sometimes I feel like a robot
Sometimes I just know not
What I'm doing,
I just blow, my head is a stove top
I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
Sometimes my mouth just overloads
the ass that I don't got
But I've learned
It's time for me to u-turn
Yo it only takes one time
for me to get burned
Ain't no fallin' on next time
I'll meet a new girl
I can not only play
stupid or be immature
I got every ingredient
all I need is the courage
Like I already got the beat
all I need is the words
Got the urge
Suddenly it's a surge
Suddenly a new burst
of energy has occured
Time to show these
Free World leaders
the Three And A Third
I am no longer scared now,
I'm free as a bird
Then I turn and cross
over the median curb
Hit the burbs
and all you see
is a blur
I'm 8 Mile Road

[Ritornello - Eminem]
