8 Mile Road -Eminem

8 Mile by EminemLyrics[Eminem]Sometimes I just feel like, quittin I still mightWhy do I put up this fight, why do I still writeSometimes it's hard enough just dealin with real lifeSometimes I wanna jump on stage and just kill micsAnd show these people what my level of skill's likeBut I'm still white, sometimes I just hate lifeSomethin ain't right, hit the brake lightsCase of the stage fright, drawin a blank likeDa-duh-duh-da-da, it ain't my faultGreat then I falls, my insides crawland I clam up (wham) I just slam shutI just can't do it, my whole manhood'sjust been stripped, I have just been vickedSo I must then get off the bus then splitMan fuck this shit yo, I'm goin the fuck homeWorld on my shoulders as I run back to this 8 Mile Road[Chorus]I'm a man, I'ma make a new planTime for me to just stand up, and travel new landTime for me to just take matters into my own handsOnce I'm over these tracks man I'ma never look back(8 Mile Road) And I'm gone, I know right where I'm goinSorry momma I'm grown, I must travel aloneain't gon' follow the footsteps I'm making my ownOnly way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road[Eminem]I'm walkin these train tracks, tryin to regain backthe spirit I had 'fore I go back to the same crapTo the same plant, and the same pantsTryin to chase rap, gotta move ASAPAnd get a new plan, momma's got a new manPoor little baby sister, she don't understandSits in front of the TV, buries her nose in the padAnd just colors until the crayon gets dull in her handWhile she colors her big brother and mother and dadAin't no tellin what really goes on in her little headWish I could be the daddy that neither one of us hadBut I keep runnin from somethin I never wanted so bad!Sometimes I get upset, cause I ain't blew up yetIt's like I grew up, but I ain't grow me two nuts yetDon't gotta rep my step, don't got enough pepThe pressure's too much man, I'm just tryin to do what's bestAnd I try, sit alone and I cryYo I won't tell no lie, not a moment goes byThat I don't pray to the sky, please I'm beggin you GodPlease don't let me pigeon holed in no regular jobYo I hope you can hear me homey wherever you areYo I'm tellin you dawg I'm bailin this trailer tomorrowTell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbyeSay whenever you need me baby, I'm never too farBut yo I gotta get out there, the only way I knowAnd I'ma be back for you, the second that I blowOn everything I own, I'll make it on my ownOff to work I go, back to this 8 Mile Road[Chorus][Eminem]You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get itOr see what the big deal is, why it wasn't the skillestTo be walkin this borderline of Detroit city limitsIt's different, it's a certain significance, a certificateof authenticity, you'd never even seeBut it's everything to me, it's my credibilityYou never seen heard smelled or met a real MCwho's incredible upon the same pedestal as meBut yet I'm still unsigned, havin a rough timeSit on the porch with all my friends and kick dumb rhymesGo to work and serve MC's in the lunchlineBut when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines goWho must I show, to bust my flowWhere must I go, who must I knowOr am I just another crab in the bucketCause I ain't havin no luck with this little Rabbit so fuck itMaybe I need a new outlet, I'm startin to doubt shitI'm feelin a little skeptical who I hang out withI look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shitAt the Salvation Army tryin to salvage an outfitAnd it's cold, tryin to travel this roadPlus I feel like I'm on stuck in this battlin modeMy defenses are so up, but one thing I don't wantis pity from no one, the city is no funThere is no sun, and it's so darkSometimes I feel like I'm just bein pulled apartFrom each one of my limbs, by each on of my friendsIt's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skinSometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know notwhat I'm doin I just blow, my head is a stove topI just explode, the kettle gets so hotSometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't gotBut I've learned, it's time for me to U-turnYo it only takes one time for me to get burnedAin't no fallin no next time I meet a new girlI can no longer play stupid or be immatureI got every ingredient, all I need is the courageLike I already got the beat, all I need is the wordsGot the urge, suddenly it's a surgeSuddenly a new burst of energy is occuredTime to show these free world leaders the three and a thirdI am no longer scared now, I'm free as a birdThen I turn and cross over the median curbHit the 'burbs and all you see is a blur from 8 Mile Road[Chorus]
