(now) It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me Admittedly, I probably did it subliminally For you, so I could come back a brand new me you helped see me through And don't even realize what you did, 'cause believe me you I been through the ringer, but they could do little to the middle finger I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers And drop dead, no more beef lingers No more drama from now on, I promise To focus solely on handling my responsibilities as a father So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof, like my daughters And raise it, you couldn't lift a single shingle on it! Cause the way I feel, I'm strong enough to go to the club Or the corner pub, and lift the whole liquor counter up Cause I'm raising the bar I'd shoot for the moon but I'm too busy gazing at stars I feel amazing and I'm... I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid) To take a stand (to take a stand) Everybody (everybody) Come take my hand (come take my hand) We'll walk this road together, through the storm Whatever weather, cold or warm Just letting you know that you're not alone Holler if you feel like you've been down the same road (same road)
I like Eminem. A lot of emotion in his music. It is good for us to express our emotions and get them out. It helps us to process things and move forward. Thanks for sharing. Stay strong!
Eminem might actually be the artist I've liked for the longest time. I remember I was really young, like maybe 10 years old(?) and my parents didn't let me listen to the kind of explicit music he made yet, so I waited for my parents to leave the house then snuck out the Marshall Mathers LP or Slim Shady LP and took it upstairs to listen to it. Felt like such a little rebel lmao. His music aged well too, 14 years later and he's still one of my favourite artists. For me personally a big part of why I enjoy his music so much is I kind of went through a similar journey to him recently. I was becoming addicted to opiates (painkillers), and was constantly filling myself with every other drug under the sun too. I remember the Slim Shady LP and Relapse used to make up a good portion of the music I enjoyed high. Then I really did become addicted, to the point that looking back I'm surprised I physically survived some of the things I did. At the time I remember I kind of didn't enjoy his newer music after the Relapse album. Then when I actually got clean myself, I remember accidentally playing some of his newer music when I was sorting through my music, and suddenly I was really enjoying it. It's weird how much being able to resonate with the lyrics affects your enjoyment of certain songs. Not Afraid and Survival are big ones I really resonate with because Not Afraid resonates with me on the level of overcoming addiction and moving forward, and Survival just reminds me of the attitude I have to my own progress and self-improvement. Since Not Afraid is already posted: [Hook: Liz Rodrigues] This is survival of the fittest This is do or die This is the winner takes it all So take it all [Verse 1:] Wasn't ready to be no millionaire, I was ill-prepared I was prepared to be ill though, the skill was there From the beginning, it wasn't 'bout the ends It was 'bout busting raps and standing for something, fucking acronym Cut the fucking act like you're happy, I'm fucking back again With another anthem, why stop when it doesn't have to end? It ain't over 'til I say it's over – enough when I say enough Throw me to them wolves and close the gate up I'm afraid of what'll happen to them wolves When the thought of being thrown into an alligator pit, I salivate at it Wait is up, hands up like it's 12 noon, nah, homie Hold them bitches straighter up, wave 'em 'til you dislocate a rotator cuff Came up rough, came to ruffle feathers, nah, egos I ain't deflate enough, last chance to make this whole stadium erupt cause [Hook] [Verse 2:] I can see the finish line with each line that I finish I'm so close to my goals I can almost pole vault over the goal post And if I don't got enough in the tank, maybe I can just siphon enough To fill up this last can, man will I survive in this climate or what? They said I was washed up, and got a blood bath I'm not a rapper, I'm an adapter, I can adjust Plus I can just walk up to a mic and just bust So floor's open if you'd like to discuss Top 5 in this motherfucker and if I don't make the cut What, like I give a fuck, I will light this bitch up like I'm driving a truck To the side of a pump, 0 to 60 hop in and gun it Like G-Unit without the hyphen, I'm hyping 'em up And if there should ever come a time where my life's in a rut And I look like I might just give up, eh might've mistook Me for bowing out I ain't taking a bow, I'm stabbing myself With a fucking knife in the gut, while I'm wiping my butt! Cause I just shitted on the mic, and I like getting cut I get excited at the sight of my blood, you're in a fight with a nut Cause I'm a fight 'til I die or win Biting the dust it'll just make me angrier, wait Let me remind you of what got me this far, picture me quitting Now draw a circle around it and put a line through it, slut It's survival of what? [Hook] [Verse 3:] So get your ideas, stack your ammo But don't come unless you come to battle, I'm mad now jump in the saddle This is it, it's what you eat, sleep, piss and shit Live, breathe, your whole existence just consists of this Refuse to quit, fuse is lit, can't diffuse the wick I don't do this music shit, I lose my shit Ain't got shit to lose, it's the moment of truth It's all I know how to do, as soon as I get thrown in the booth, I spit But my respect is overdue, I'm showing you the flow no one do Cause I don't own no diploma for school, I quit! So there's nothing for me to fall back on, I know no other trade So you better trade your fucking mics in for some tool-box-es Cause you'll never take my pride from me It'll have to be pried from me, so pull out your pliers and your screwdrivers! But I want you to doubt me, I don't want you to believe Cause this is something that I must use to succeed And if you don't like me then fuck you! Self esteem must be fucking shooting through-the-roof cause trust me My skin is too thick and bullet proof to touch me I can see why the fuck I disgust you I must be allergic to failure cause every time I come close to it I just sneeze, but I just go achoo then achieve!
Do you know logic? He's pretty good not just with his lyrics, he's just ..... i don't know what to say. Listen to these And of course he has that party tracks like:
It's funny I use to not like Eminem but I find some of his songs a great encouragement in my NoFap journey.
