Meet Eddie, 23 years old, Fed up with life (damn)

And the way things are going (I’m going fucking insane)

He decides to rob a liquor store (I have to take this shit)

But on his way in (I can’t take it anymore, holmes)

He has a sudden change of heart (Shit is mine)

And suddenly (I have to do this)

His conscience comes into play (I have to do this). Alright, stop (Huh?)

Before you walk in the door of this liquor store, try to get money out of the drawer.

You better think of the consequences (Who are you?) I’m your motherfuckin’ conscience; that’s nonsense

Album: The Eminem Show

Released: 2002

Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap

The song received positive comments as people loved the rap speed and skills and lyrical genius of Eminem.

The song is mainly about the misunderstanding in our society as people often consider rap music absurd.

But by the lyrics, Eminem changes their minds:

These ideas are nightmares to white parents

Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings

Like whatever they say has no bearing

It’s so scary in a house that allows no swearing

To see him walking around with his headphones blaring

Alone in his zone, cold, and he doesn’t care

He’s a problem child, and what bothers him all comes out

When he talks about his f- dad walking out

Because he hates him so bad that he blocks him out

If he ever saw him again, he’d probably knock him out

His thoughts are whacked, and he’s mad, so he’s talking back

Talking black, brainwashed from rock and rap

He sags his pants, doo-rags, and a stocking cap

Check out: Sing for the Moment

Yeah, my life is a bitch, but you know nothing about her

Been to hell and back, I can show you vouchers

I’m rolling sweets, and I’m smoking sour

Married to the game, but she broke her vows

That’s why my bars are full of broken bottles

And these niggas know I lay them down, make them beg
