[Eminem]
[00:29.07] Sometimes I just feel like, quitting I still might
[00:31.65] Why do I put upthis fight, why do I still write
[00:34.24] Sometimes it's hard enough just dealin wit real life
[00:37.02] Sometimes I wanna jump on stage and just kill mics
[00:39.75] And show these people what my level of skills like
[00:42.32] But I'm still white, sometimes I just hate life
[00:45.05] Something ain't right, hit the brake lights
[00:47.69] Case of the stage fright, drawin a blank light
[00:50.58] Da-duh-duh-da-da, it ain't my fault
[00:53.60] Great big eyeballs, my insides crawl
[00:56.29] And I clam up, I just slam shut
[00:58.42] I just can't do it, my whole manhoods
[01:01.05] Just been stripped, I have just been vicked
[01:03.62] So i must then get, off this bus then split
[01:06.02] Man fuck this shit yo, I'm going the fuck home
[01:08.95] World on my shoulders as I run back to this 8 mile road
[05:06.81][02:47.80][01:12.62] I'm a man, I'ma make a new plan
[05:08.89][02:50.21][01:14.16] Time for me to just stand up, and travel new land
[05:11.50][02:53.04][01:16.96] Time for me to just take matters into my own hands
[05:14.37][02:55.51][01:19.42] Once I'm over these tracks man I'ma never look back
[05:16.78][02:58.13][01:22.10] (8 mile road) And I'm gone, I know right where I'm going
[05:19.46][03:00.88][01:24.89] Sorry mama I'm grown, I must travel alone
[05:22.09][03:03.61][01:27.40] Ain't gunna follow these footsteps, I'm making my own
[05:24.72][03:06.06][01:30.10] Only way I know how to escape from this 8 mile road
[01:33.15] I'm walking these train tracks, tryin to regain back
[01:35.78] the spirit I had fore I go back to the same crap
[01:38.37] To the same plant, in the same pants
[01:41.04] Tryin to chase rap, gotta move ASAP
[01:43.69] And get a new plan, mommas got a new mam
[01:46.01] Poor little baby sister, she don't understand
[01:49.08] Sits in front of the T.V, buries her nose in the pad
[01:51.27] And just colors until the crayon gets dull in her hand
[01:54.01] While she colors her big brother, her mother and dad
[01:56.70] Ain't no tellin what really goes on in her little head
[01:59.33] Wish I could be the daddy that neither one of us had
[02:02.00] But I keep runnin from something I never wanted so bad!
[02:04.63] Sometimes I get upset, cause I ain't blew up yet
[02:07.59] It's like I grew up, but I ain't grow me two nuts yet
[02:10.18] Don't got a rep my step, don't got enough pep
[02:12.84] The pressures to much man, I'm just tryin to do whats best
[02:15.54] And I try, sit alone and I cry
[02:17.82] Yo I won't tell no lie, not a moment goes by
[02:20.67] That I don't pray to the sky, please I'm beggin you god
[02:23.24] Please don't let me bitchin holdin no regular job
[02:25.89] Yo I hope you can hear me homey wherever you are
[02:28.44] Yo I'm tellin you dawg I'm bailin this trailer tomorrow
[02:31.19] Tell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbye
[02:33.81] Say whenevr you need me baby I'm never to far
[02:36.50] But yo I gotta get out there the only way that I know
[02:39.29] And I'ma be back for you the second that I blow
[02:42.02] On everything I own, I'll make it on my own
[02:45.29] Off to work I go, back to this 8 mile road
[03:09.17] You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it
[03:11.48] Or see what the big deal is, why it wasn't the skillest
[03:14.31] To be walkin this boarder line of Detroit city limits
[03:16.83] It's different, it's a certain significance, a certificate
[03:19.34] Of authenticity, you've never even seen
[03:21.92] But it's everthing to me, it's my credibility
[03:24.72] You've never seen heard smelled or met a real MC
[03:27.34] Who's incredible upon the same pedastal as me
[03:29.96] But yet I'm still unsigned, having a rough time
[03:33.04] Sit on the porch wit all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
[03:35.72] Go to work and serve MC's in the lunchline
[03:38.39] But when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines go
[03:41.14] Who must I show, to bust my flow
[03:44.09] Where must I go, who must I know
[03:46.67] Or am I just another crab in the bucket
[03:49.01] Cause I ain't havin no luck with this little Rabbit so fuck it
[03:51.65] Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm startin to doubt shit
[03:54.38] I'm feelin a little skeptical who I hang out with
[03:56.85] I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shit
[03:59.58] At the salvation army tryin to salvage an outfit
[04:02.59] And it's cold tryin to travel this raod
[04:05.27] Plus I feel like on stuck in this battlin mode
[04:07.52] My defenses are so up, and one thing I don't want
[04:10.39] Is pity from no one, this city is no fun
[04:13.04] There is no sun, and it's so dark
[04:15.79] Sometimes I just feel like I being pulled apart
[04:18.41] From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
[04:20.74] It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin
[04:23.41] Sometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
[04:26.36] What I'm doin I just blow, my head is a stove top
[04:28.65] I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
[04:31.65] Sometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't got
[04:34.23] But I've learned, it's time for me to u-turn
[04:37.08] Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
[04:39.43] Ain't no falling no next time I meet a new girl
[04:42.07] I can no longer play stupid or be immature
[04:44.69] I got every ingredient, all I need is the courage
[04:47.31] Like I already got the beat, all I need is the words
[04:50.38] Got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
[04:52.75] Suddenly a new burst of energy has ocurred
[04:55.14] Time to show these free world leaders at three in the third
[04:57.88] I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
[05:00.51] Then I turn and cross over the median curb
[05:03.19] Hit the verbs and all you see is a blur from 8 mile road
[05:29.03]
