[00:33.700]Have you ever been hated
[00:35.870]or discriminated against?
[00:36.810]I have' I've been protested and demonstrated against.
[00:39.300]Picket signs for my wicked rhymes.
[00:41.990]Look at the times. Sick is the mind
[00:44.050]of the motha ****in' kid that's behind
[00:46.110]all this commotion. Emotions run deep
[00:48.300]as ocean's explodin.'
[00:49.470]Tempers flaring from parents'
[00:51.030]just blow 'em off and keep goin.'
[00:52.910]Not takin' nothin' from no one'
[00:54.530]give 'em hell long as I'm breathin.
[00:56.280]Keep kickin' ass in the mornin''
[00:57.710]an' takin' names in the evening.
[00:58.900]Leavem with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth.
[01:01.580]See' they can trigger me
[01:03.250]but they never figure me out.
[01:05.370]Look at me now'
[01:06.680]I bet ya probably sick of me now.
[01:08.990]Ain't you mama'
[01:09.690]I'ma make you look so ridiculous now.
[01:11.810]I'm sorry' Mama.
[01:15.180]I never meant to hurt you.
[01:18.080]I never meant to make you cry' but tonight
[01:21.310]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[01:23.620]I'm sorry' Mama.
[01:27.680]I never meant to hurt you.
[01:30.920]I never meant to make you cry' but tonight
[01:34.230]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[01:37.970]I got some skeletons in my closet
[01:40.190]and I don't know if no one knows it.
[01:42.190]So before they thrown
[01:42.890]me inside my coffin and close it'
[01:44.510]I'ma expose it. I'll take you back to
[01:46.680]73 before I ever had a multi-platinum sellin' CD.
[01:50.750]I was a baby' maybe I was just a couple of months.
[01:53.810]My faggot father must have
[01:55.300]had his panties up in a bunch'
[01:57.300]cuz he split.
[01:58.040]I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye.
[02:00.420]No' I don't on second thought'
[02:01.730]I just ****in' wished he would die.
[02:03.840]I look at Hailie
[02:04.790]and I couldn't picture leavin' her side.
[02:06.960]Even if I hated Kim' I grit my teeth and I'd try
[02:10.210]to make it work with her at least for Hailie's sake.
[02:12.650]I maybe made some mistakes
[02:14.080]but I'm only human.
[02:15.020]But I'm man enough to face them today.
[02:17.200]/What I did was stupid' no doubt it was dumb
[02:19.820]but the smartest shit
[02:20.890]I did was take them bullets out of that gun.
[02:23.260]Cuz id'a killed 'em'
[02:24.370]shit I would have shot Kim an' him both.
[02:26.630]It's my life' I'd like to welcome y'all to The Eminem Show.
[02:29.750]I'm sorry' Mama.
[02:32.670]I never meant to hurt you.

[02:45.530]I never meant to hurt you.
[02:48.840]I never meant to make you cry' but tonight
[02:51.950]I'm cleanin' out my closet.

[02:58.260]Take a second to listen for you think this record is dissin''
[03:02.000]But put yourself in my position.

[03:08.610]bitchin' that someone's always g
[03:09.680]oin' throuh her purse and shits missin.' Going through
[03:11.990]public housing systems' victim of Munchausen's syndrome.
