[Verso 1 - Eminem]
Life.. by Marshall Mathers
What is life?
Life is like a big obstacle
put in front of your optical
to slow you down
And everytime you think
you gotten past it
it's gonna come back around
and tackle you to the damn ground
What are friends?
Friends are people that
you think are your friends
But they really your enemies,
with secret indentities
and disguises,
to hide they true colors
So just when you think
you close enough to be brothers
they wanna come back and
cut your throat when you ain't lookin
What is money?
Money is what makes
a man act funny
Money is the root of all evil
Money'll make them same
friends come back around
swearing that they
was always down
What is life?
I'm tired of life
I'm tired of backstabbing
ass snakes with friendly grins
I'm tired of committing
so many sins
Tired of always giving in when
this bottle of Henny wins
Tired of never having any ends
Tired of having skinny friends
hooked on crack and mini-thins
I'm tired of this DJ playing
YOUR shit when he spins
Tired of not having a deal
Tired of having to deal with
the bullshit without
grabbing the steel
Tired of drowning in my sorrow
Tired of having
to borrow a dollar for gas
to start my Monte Carlo
I'm tired of motherfuckers
spraying shit and dartin off
I'm tired of jobs startin off
at five fifty an hour
then this boss wanders
why I'm smartin off
I'm tired of being fired
everytime I fart and cough
Tired of having to work
as a gas station clerk
for this jerk breathing down
my neck driving me bezerk
I'm tired of using
plastic silverware
Tired of working in
Building Square
Tired of not being
a millionaire.
[Ritornello - Eminem]
But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery,
and turn the planet
into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand,
I'd make the world suck
my dick without a condom on,
while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough,
because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big
enough ass for the
whole world to kiss.
[Verso 2 - Eminem]
I'm tired of being
white trash,
broke and always poor
Tired of taking pop bottles
back to the party store
I'm tired of not having a phone
Tired of not having a home
to have one in if I did have it on
Tired of not driving a BM
Tired of not
working at GM,
tired of wanting to be him
Tired of not sleeping
without a Tylenol PM
Tired of not performing in
a packed coliseum
Tired of not being on tour
Tired of fucking the same
blonde whore after work
in the back of a Contour
I'm tired of faking knots
with a stack of ones
Having a lack of funds
and resorting back to guns
Tired of being stared at
I'm tired of wearing
the same damn Nike Air hat
Tired of stepping in clubs
wearing the same pair of Lugz
Tired of people saying
they're tired of hearing me
rap about drugs
Tired of other rappers who
ain't bringin half the skill as me
saying they wasn't feeling me
when nobody's as ill as me
I'm tired of radio stations
telling fibs
Tired of J-L-B saying
"Where Hip-Hop Lives"
[Ritornello - Eminem]
[Outro - Eminem]
You know what I'm saying?
I'm tired of all
of this bullshit
Telling me
to be positive
How'm I 'sposed to be positive
when I don't see shit positive?
Know what I'm sayin?
I rap about shit
around me,
shit I see
Know what I'm sayin?
Right now I'm tired of everything
Tired of all
this player hating
that's going on in my own city
Can't get
no airplay,
you know what I'm sayin?
But ey, it's cool though,
you know what I'm sayin?
Just fed up
That's my word
