Without Me Lyrics – Eminem

Without Me

Obie Trice, real name no gimmicks

Two trailer park girls go round the outside
Round the outside, round the outside
Two trailer park girls go round the outside
Round the outside, round the outside

Guess who’s back?
Back again
Shady’s back
Tell a friend
Guess who’s back? Guess who’s back?
Guess who’s back? Guess who’s back?
Guess who’s back? Guess who’s back?
Guess who’s back?

I’ve created a monster
‘Cause nobody wants to see Marshall no more
They want Shady, I’m chopped liver
Well, if you want Shady, this is what I’ll give ya
A little bit of weed mixed with some hard liquor

Some vodka that’ll jump start my heart quicker
Than a shock when I get shocked at the hospital
By the doctor when I’m not co-operating
When I’m rockin’ the table while he’s operating

You waited this long, now stop debating
‘Cause I’m back, I’m on the rag and ovulating
I know that you got a job, Ms. Cheney
But your husband’s heart problem’s complicating

So the FCC won’t let me be
Or let me be me, so let me see
They try to shut me down on MTV
But it feels so empty, without me

So, come on and dip, bum on your lips
Jump back, jiggle a hip and wiggle abit
And get ready, ’cause this is about to get heavy
I just settled all my lawsuits, f- you Debbie!

Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty, without me
I said this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty, without me

Little hellions, kids feelin’ rebellious
Embarrassed their parents still listen to Elvis
They start feelin’ like prisoners, helpless
‘Til someone comes along on a mission and yells, –

A visionary, vision of scary
Could start a revolution, pollutin’ the airwaves
A rebel, so just let me revel and bask
In the fact that I got everyone kissin’ my –

And it’s a disaster, such a catastrophe
For you to see so damn much of my -, you asked for me?
Well, I’m back, da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Fix your bent antenna tune it in and then I’m gonna

Enter in, endin’ up under your skin like a splinter
The center of attention, back for the winter
I’m interesting, the best thing since wrestling
Infesting, in your kid’s ears and nesting

“Testing, attention, please”
Feel the tension, soon as someone mentions me
Here’s my ten cents, my two cents is free
A nuisance, who sent? You sent for me?

Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty, without me
I said, this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty, without me

A-tisket a-tasket, I go tit for tat with
Anybody who’s talkin’ this and that sh-
Chris Kirk Patrick, you can get your a- kicked
Worse than them little Limp Bizkit b-
And Moby? You can get stomped by Obie
You 36 year old baldheaded –
You don’t know me, you’re too old, let go
It’s over, nobody listen to techno

Now let’s go, just gimme the signal
I’ll be there with a whole list full of new insults
I been dope, suspenseful with a pencil
Ever since Prince turned himself into a symbol
But sometimes the shit just seems
Everybody only wants to discuss me
So this must mean I’m disgusting
But it’s just me, I’m just obscene

No, I’m not the first king of controversy
I am the worst thing since Elvis Presley
To do Black music so selfishly
And used it to get myself wealthy (hey)
There’s a concept that works
20 million other white rappers emerge
But no matter how many fish in the sea
It’ll be so empty, without me

Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty without me
I said this looks like a job for me
So everybody, just follow me
‘Cause we need a little, controversy
‘Cause it feels so empty without me

Kids!

About Eminem

Marshall Bruce Mathers III was born in St. Joseph, Missouri, to Deborah R. Nelson and Marshall Bruce Mathers, Jr. In addition to English ancestry, he has some German, Scottish, and Swiss-German ancestry as well. As a child, Marshall was shuffled between Kansas City and Detroit. When he was 12 years old, he moved to Detroit’s Eastside. Making friends, graduating, and staying out of trouble was all difficult when you switched schools every two to three months. During his high school years in Warren, Michigan, Marshall attended Lincoln High School.

Career

He began rapping at the age of 4, having been a fan of rap since he was a child. When I was a child, rhyming words together and battling schoolmates in the lunchroom brought joy to an otherwise painful existence. When he was 14, he began to take his rapping seriously, but it wasn’t until he was 17 that he made his name, becoming M&M, which he would later rename as “Eminem.”. Marshall developed an anger as a result of being rejected by most fellow rappers because of his race. He quit school after failing the 9th grade three times in a row, but he maintains that he is not stupid and does not recommend others follow his example. As far as he is concerned, it just wasn’t for him. Marshall threw himself headfirst into the rap game, where he was mostly swallowed up by radio shows and freestyle battles. The rapper’s very first album, “Infinite,” sold less than a thousand copies, but it was a stepping stone on the way to becoming a millionaire. In 1995, he and longtime girlfriend Kim Scott had a daughter, Hailie Jade Scott.

Having nothing to lose, Marshall set out to rant about life in general, quickly catching the ear of hip-hop’s difficult-to-please underground. The Slim Shady EP emerged from this, as well as Dr. Dre’s later revised Slim Shady LP. Down to nearly nothing, he entered the 1997 Rap Olympics in Los Angeles, hoping to win the $1,500 cash prize. With every race diss thrown at him, Marshall made it to second place losing in a slipup after battling for an hour. Since Marshall was in a fury over losing, he didn’t notice he was being watched. A few Interscope producers were in the crowd, and they were shown a demo copy of the “Infinite” tape.

Eventually, Dr. Dre found him after hearing it. In their first six hours of working together, the two recorded four songs, three of which made it on to his first LP. Following the completion of the album, Dr. Dre asked Marshall to work with him on his next album. He contributed to several tracks and was on some of the best songs on the album. Dre and Marshall are now set to make his second album. In the United States alone, more than 8 million copies of the Marshall Mathers LP were sold, winning 3 Grammies and being nominated for “Album of the Year”. Additionally, he stunned critics by performing “Stan” with Elton John to dispel all homophobic remarks. In 2002, Eminem made a movie called 8 Mile. Marshall has explained his life in one word since 2001, when he was charged with weapon offenses, divorced from his wife, and nearly went to prison.
