I sit back with this pack of zig-zags and this bag....
....of this weed, it gives me the shit needed to be....
....the most meanest em-cee on this (on this Earth)....
....and since birth, I've been cursed with this curse to just curse....
....and just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works....
....and it sells and it helps, in itself, to relieve all this tension, dispensing....
....these sentences getting this stress that's been eating me recently....
....off of this chest, and I rest again peacefully (peacefully)....
....but at least have the decency in you to leave me alone....
....when you freaks see me out in the streets....
....when I'm eating or feeding my daughter....
....do not come and speak to me (speak to me)....
....I don't know you and no, I don't owe you a motherfucking thing....
....I'm not "Mr. N'Sync", I'm not what your friends think....
....I'm not "Mr. Friendly", I can be a prick....
....if you tick me, my tank is on empty (is on empty)....
....no patience is in me and if you offend me....
....I'm lifting you ten feet (ten feet)....
....in the air, I don't care who was there and who saw me destroy you....
....well, call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit....
....I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe....
....I'm tired of all you....
....I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me....
....and I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....radio won't even play my jam....
....cause I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....I don't know, it's just the way I am....
....sometimes, I just feel like my father: I hate to be bothered....
....with all of this nonsense, it's constant....
....and, "oh, it's his lyrical content....
....the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses"....
....and all of this controversy circles me....
....and it seems like the media immediately....
....points a finger at me (finger at me)....
....so I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie....
....or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up....
....when you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up....
....with the bullshit they pull, cause they full of the shit too....
....when a dude's getting bullied and shoots up his school....
....and they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn) and the heroin....
....where were the parents at....
....and look where it's at: Middle America, now it's a tragedy....
....now it's so sad to see, an upper-class city having this happening....
....then attack Eminem cause I rap this way....
....but I'm glad cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire....
....to burn and it's burning....
....and I have returned....
....and I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....radio won't even play my jam....
....cause I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....I don't know, it's just the way I am....
....I'm so sick and tired of being admired....
....that I wish that I would just die or get fired....
....and dropped from my label, let's stop with the fables....
....I'm not gonna be able to top what my name is....
....and pigeon-holed into some poppy sensation....
....that got me rotation at rock and roll stations....
....and I just do not got the patience (got the patience)....
....to deal with these cocky Caucasians who think....
....I'm some wigger who just tries to be black....
....cause I talk with an accent and grab on my balls....
....cause they always keep asking the same fucking questions....
....what hood I grew up in....
....the why, the who-what, when, the where, and the how....
....'til I'm grabbing my hair and I'm tearing it out....
....cause they driving me crazy....
....I can't take it: I'm racing, I'm pacing, I stand, and I sit....
....and I'm thankful for every fan that I get....
....but I can't take a shit, in the bathroom....
....without someone standing by it....
....no, I won't sign your autograph....
....you can call me an asshole, I'm glad....
....cause I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....radio won't even play my jam....
....cause I am whatever you say I am....
....if I wasn't, then why would I say I am....
....in the paper, the news: Everyday, I am....
....I don't know, it's just the way I am.
