River (Feat. Ed Sheeran) Lyrics - Eminem

[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]

I've been a liar, been a thief

Been a lover, been a cheat

All my sins need holy water

Feel it washing over me

Oh, little one, I don't want to admit to something

If all it's gonna cause is pain

Truth in my lies right now are falling like the rain

So let the river run

[Verse 1: Eminem]

He's coming home with his neck scratched, to catch flack

Sweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatch

On his breath's Jack is a sex addict

And she just wants to exact revenge and get back

It's a chess match, she's on his back like a jet pack

She's kept track of all his Internet chats

And guess who just happens to be moving on to the next?

Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks

'Cause she loves danger, psychopath

And you don't fuck with no man's girl, even I know that

But she's devised some plan to stab him in the back, knife in hand

Says the relationship's hanging by a strand

So she's been on the web lately

Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man

And I know she's using me to try to play him

I don't care, hi Susanne, but I shoulda said “Bye Susanne”

After the first night, but tonight I am

[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]

I've been a liar, been a thief

Been a lover, been a cheat

All my sins need holy water

Feel it washing over me

Oh, little one, I don't want to admit to something

If all it's gonna cause is pain

Truth in my lies now are falling like the rain

So let the river run

[Verse 2: Eminem]

One-night stand, turned into night staying

He was calling so might scram, now we hug tight and

He found out, now she feels deserted and used

'Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her too

Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we're through?

It's hard to find the words, I'm aloof, nervous, ensued

And witnessed you hurt, but what you deserve is the truth

Don't take it personal, I just can't say this in person to you

So I revert to the studio like hole in the wall diners

Don't have to be reserved in a booth

I just feel like the person who I'm turning into's

Irreversible, I preyed on you like it's church at the pew

And now that I got you I don't want you

Took advantage of my thirst to pursue

Why do I do this dirt that I do?

Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon and speech

Detergent and bleach is burning the wound

'Cause now with her in the womb

We can't bring her in this world, shoulda knew

To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit

Fuck!

[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]

I've been a liar, been a thief

Been a lover, been a cheat

All my sins need holy water

Feel it washing over me

Oh, little one, I don't want to admit to something

If all it's gonna cause is pain

Truth in my lies now are falling like the rain

So let the river run

[Bridge: Eminem & Ed Sheeran]

My name's (ooh), my name's (ooh)

Denver (ooh), river run

Call me (ooh), call me (ooh)

River (ooh), we'll let the river run

[Verse 3: Eminem]

Always the bridesmaid, never “The bride, hey!”

Fuck can I say? If life was a highway

The seat was an enclave, I'd be swerving in five lanes

Speeds at a high rate, like I'm sliding on ice, maybe

That's why I may have came at you sideways

I can't keep my lies straight

What I made you terminate, my baby

This love triangle left us in a wreck, tangled

What else can I say? It was fun for a while

Bet I really woulda loved your smile

Didn't really wanna abort, but fuck it

What's one more lie, to tell an unborn child?

[Chorus: Ed Sheeran & Eminem]

I've been a liar, been a thief

Been a lover, been a cheat

All my sins need holy water

Feel it washing over me

Oh, little one (I'm sorry)

I don't want to admit to something (I fucked up)

If all it's gonna cause is pain

The truth in my lies now are falling like the rain

So let the river run.

Walk On Water (Feat. Beyoncé) Lyrics - Eminem

[Beyoncé (Eminem):]

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes (fuck)

[Eminem:]

Why are expectations so high?

Is it the bar I set?

My arms, I stretch, but I can't reach

A far cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as

Soon as I grab, squeeze

I lose my grip like the flyin' trapeze

Into the dark I plummet, now the sky's blackenin'

I know the mark's high, butterflies rip apart my stomach

Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with

You're gonna harp, gripe, and

That's a hard Vicodin to swallow, so I scrap these

As pressure increases like khakis

I feel the ice cracking, because

[Beyoncé (Eminem):]

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water (shit)

But only when it freezes

[Eminem:]

It's the curse of the standard, that the first of the Mathers disc set

Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet

Will this step just be another misstep

To tarnish, whatever the legacy, love or respect

I've garnered?

The rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless

And it always feels like I'm hittin' the mark

'Til I go sit in the car, listen and pick it apart

Like, "This shit is garbage!"

God's given me all this, still I feel no different regardless

Kids look to me as a god, this is retarded

If only they knew, it's a facade and it's exhaustive

And I try not to listen to nonsense

But if you bitches are tryin' to strip me of my confidence

Mission accomplished

I'm not God-sent

Nas, Rakim, Pac, B.I.G., James Todd Smith, and I'm not Prince, so

[Beyoncé:]

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

'Cause I'm only human, just like you

Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

[Eminem:]

It's true, I'm a Rubik's, a beautiful mess

At times juvenile, yes, I goof and I jest

A flawed human, I guess

But I'm doin' my best to not ruin your expectations and meet 'em, but first

The "Speedom" verse, now Big Sean

He's going too fast, is he gonna shout or curse out his mom?

There was a time I had the world by the balls, eating out my palm

Every album song I was spazzin' the fuck out on

And now I'm gettin' clowned and frowned on

But the only one who's looking down on

Me that matters now's DeShaun

Am I lucky to be around this long?

Begs the question though

Especially after the methadone

As yesterday fades and the Dresden home

Is burnt to the ground, and all that's left of my house is lawn

The crowds are gone

And it's time to wash out the blonde

Sales decline, the curtains drawn

They're closing the set, I'm still poking my head from out behind

And everyone who has doubt, remind

Now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a thousand times

Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares or gives a fuck about your rhymes

And as I grow outta sight, outta mind, I might go outta mine

'Cause how do I ever let this mic go without a fight

When I made a fuckin' tightrope outta twine?

But when I do fall from these heights though, I'll be fine

I won't pout or cry or spiral down or whine

But I'll decide if it's my final bow this time around, 'cause

[Beyoncé:]

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

'Cause I'm only human, just like you

I've been making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

If I walked on water, I would drown

[Eminem:]

'Cause I'm just a man

But as long as I got a mic, I'm godlike

So me and you are not alike

Bitch, I wrote "Stan".

Untouchable Lyrics - Eminem

Pt. I

[Intro]

Hands up, officer don’t shoot

Then pull your pants up, promise you won't loot

We may never understand each other, it’s no use

We ain’t ever gonna grasp what each other goes through

[Verse 1]

Black boy, black boy, we ain't gonna lie to you

Black boy, black boy, we don't like the sight of you

Pull up on the side of you

Window rolled down, 'profile'

Then we wonder why we see this side of you

Probably comin' from the dope house

We could let you slide but your tail light is blew, out

We know you're hidin' that Heidi Klum

On you another drug charge, homie, it's back inside for you

And just in case a chase might ensue, we got that tried and true

Pistol drew right at you, we'd be delighted to unload it

In your back, then walk up and lay that taser on the side of you

Fucked up, but what the fuck am I to do?

I keep tellin' myself, keep doin' like you're doin'

No matter how many lives you ruin

It's for the red, white and blue

Time to go find a new one and split his head right in two

No one's ever indicted you

Why? 'Cause you're a...

[Chorus: Eminem & (Cheech and Chong)]

White boy, white boy, you're a rockstar

(My momma talkin' to me, tryna tell me how to live)

White boy, white boy, in your cop car

(But I don't listen to her, 'cause my head is like a sieve)

White boy, white boy, you're untouchable

(The world's coming to an end, I don't even care)

Nobody can tell me shit 'cause I'm a (big rockstar)

[Verse 2]

Black boy, black boy, we don't get your culture and

We don't care what our government's done to fuck you over, man

Don't tell us your attitude's a result of that

Balderdash, where’d you get the chip on your shoulder at?

Why you kicking that soda can?

Pull your pants up, we 'bout to roll up and

Throw your ass in the van cuffed

You don't have to know our plans or what our intentions are

Our cards are close to our chest, you better show your hands

And put our minds more at ease

Or get shot in the thyroid, comply or die, boy

We're fightin' a crime war, here come the swine

Tryna clean up the streets from all these minorities

That's what we call 'em pigsties for

They're like eyesores to police

Talk to you like just a piece of trash

Feels like we're stuck in a time warp to me

As I kick these facts and get these mixed reactions

As this beat backspins, it's like we're drifting back in

To the sixties, having black-skin is risky

'Cause this keeps happening

Throughout history, African-Americans have been treated like shit

And I admit, there have been times where it's been embarrassin' to be a...

[Chorus: Eminem & (Cheech and Chong)]

White boy, white boy, you're a rockstar

(My momma talkin' to me, tryna tell me how to live)

White boy, white boy, in your cop car

(But I don't listen to her, 'cause my head is like a sieve)

White boy, white boy, you're untouchable

(The world's coming to an end, I don't even care)

Nobody can tell me shit 'cause I'm a (big rockstar)

Pt. II

[Verse 3]

Seems like the average lifespan of a white man

Is more than twice than a black life span

I wonder sometimes if it has a price scanner

I feel like checking out on life, can't escape this circumstance

I'd rather hear 'em say "Die N-word" than Die Antwoord

Ninja, now it's better disguised banter

But that's life, strapped 'cause we're strapped financially

And can't find answers

We're applying, but McDonald's

Seems to be the only franchise that'll hire

So how can we have higher standards?

As Dallas overshadows the battle for Black Lives Matter

We fight back with violence but acts like that are

Black eyes on the movement

Which makes black lives madder

At cops and cops madder

That's why it's at a stalemate

Can't arrive at a compromise so it's Black Ops

I wonder if we hire more black cops, the crap stops

The block is our backyards, officers, not the crack spot

Call the attack dogs off of us, man

You always act all pissed off at us at a traffic stop

And bad cops fuck it up for the good cops, and man, stop

Sendin' white cops in the black neighborhoods

Who ain't acclimated to 'em, like that's the way to do it

Who seen some fuckin' videos of rappers waving guns

And know nobody black so they act afraid of us

And that's racism, the fear that a black face gives 'em

A subconscious racist

Wait, why are there black neighborhoods?

'Cause America segregated us, designated us to an area

Separated us, Section-Eight'd us

When we tear it up’s the only time attention’s paid to us

And education sucks, and every day's another

Freddie Gray for us, a levy breaks or fuzz

Why is it they treat us like dryer lint?

We just want a safe environment for our kids

But can’t escape the sirens

Don’t take a scientist to see our violent nature lies in

The poverty that we face so the crime rate’s the highest in

The lowest classes, it's like a razor wire fence

And we’re trapped in these racial biases

That plague our society which makes our anxiety levels raise

Every time we see a devil’s face

Lions, tigers, and bears, oh my

It's more like billy clubs and gats

And we really love it when you think we’re guilty ‘cause we’re black

"But you kill each other, facts

You peel each other's caps, for silly stuff like hats”

Single mother strugglin’ through substance abuse

While people with nothin' to lose shoot each other for shoes

Fuck your Republican views

Pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, where the fuck are the boots?

And streets act as a narrator, don't gotta read comics

Or be that into characters, just to see that, just to be black

You better be strapped with a derringer

Or be “capped in America” like Steve Rogers

'Cause no one oversees these cops and

All we see is 'em beat charges

We done seen 'em beat Rodney King unconscious, and got off

So we don't need all you crooked police officers' peace offerings

Just keep marchin', 'til we reach congress

But they're gonna say you're tryin' to take an irrational stance

If you try to slander the flag but

Somebody has to be the sacrificial lamb

So they call it a Kaepernick tantrum

If you don't stand for the national anthem

We raise it, you better praise it

Or you'll be made to feel like a traitor, we'll

Treat you like Rodney Dangerfield

Home of the brave is still racist 'ville

So this whole nation feels like a plantation field

In a country that claims that its foundation was based on United States ideals

That had its Natives killed

Got you singin' this star-spangled spiel

To a piece of cloth that represents the "Land of the Free" that made people slaves to build.

Not Afraid Lyrics - Eminem

 

[Chorus:]
I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)
To take a stand (to take a stand)
Everybody (everybody)
Come take my hand (come take my hand)
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just letting you know that you're not alone
Holler if you feel like you've been down the same road (same road)

[Intro (during Chorus):]
Yeah, it's been a ride
I guess I had to, go to that place, to get to this one
Now some of you, might still be in that place
If you're trying to get out, just follow me
I'll get you there

You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em
But you won't take the sting out these words before I say 'em
Cause ain't no way I'ma let you stop me from causing mayhem
When I say I'ma do something I do it,
I don't give a damn what you think,
I'm doing this for me, so fuck the world
Feed it beans, it's gassed up, if it thinks it's stopping me
I'ma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony
No ifs, ands or buts, don't try to ask him why or how can he
From "Infinite" down to the last "Relapse" album
He's still shitting, whether he's on salary paid hourly
Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first, for better or worse
He's married to the game, like a fuck you for Christmas
His gift is a curse, forget the Earth, he's got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt, and fuck the whole universe

[Chorus]

Okay quit playing with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it's a rap
You said you was king, you lied through your teeth, for that
Fuck your fillings, instead of getting crowned you're getting capped
And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm back
I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact
Let's be honest, that last "Relapse" CD was ehhh
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax, I ain't going back to that now
All I'm trying to say is get back, click-clack, blow
Cause I ain't playing around
It's a game called circle and I don't know how, I'm way too up to back down
But I think I'm still trying to figure this crap out
Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn't, this fucking black cloud
Still follows me around but it's time to exorcise these demons
These motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now!

[Chorus]

And I just can't keep living this way
So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
I'm standing up, I'ma face my demons
I'm manning up, I'ma hold my ground
I've had enough, now I'm so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now! (now)

It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me
Admittedly, I probably did it subliminally
For you, so I could come back a brand new me you helped see me through
And don't even realize what you did, 'cause believe me you
I been through the ringer, but they could do little to the middle finger
I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of
My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers
And drop dead, no more beef lingers
No more drama from now on, I promise
To focus solely on handling my responsibilities as a father
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof, like my daughters
And raise it, you couldn't lift a single shingle on it!
Cause the way I feel, I'm strong enough to go to the club
Or the corner pub, and lift the whole liquor counter up
Cause I'm raising the bar
I'd shoot for the moon but I'm too busy gazing at stars
I feel amazing and I'm...

[Chorus].

Berzerk Lyrics - Eminem

[Verse 1]
Now this shit's about to kick off, this party looks wack
Let's take it back to straight hip-hop and start it from scratch
I'm 'bout to bloody this track up, everybody get back
That's why my pen needs a pad cause my rhymes on the ra-hag
Just like I did with addiction I'm 'bout to kick it
Like a magician, critics I turn to crickets
Got 'em still on the fence whether to pick it
But quick to get impaled when I tell 'em stick it
So sick I'm looking pale, well that's my pigment
'Bout to go ham, ya bish, shout out to Kendrick
Let's bring it back to that vintage Slim, bitch!
The art of the MCing mixed with da Vinci and MC Ren
And I don't mean Stimpy's friend, bitch
Been Public Enemy since you thought PE was gym, bitch

[Bridge:]
Take your shoes off, let your hair down and (go berserk), all night long
Grow your beard out, just weird out and (go berserk), all night long

[Hook:]
We're gonna rock this house until we knock it down
So turn the volume loud, cause it's mayhem 'til the a.m.
So baby make just like K-Fed and let yourself go, let yourself go
Say fuck it before we kick the bucket
Life's too short to not go for broke
So everybody, everybody (go berzerk) shake your body

[Verse 2]
Guess it's just the way that I'm dressed, ain't it?
Khaki's pressed, Nike shoes just crispy and fresh laced
So I guess it ain't
That aftershave or cologne that made Em just faint
Plus I just showed up with a coat fresher than wet paint
So if love is a chess game, check mate
But girl your body's banging, jump me in dang, bang bang
Yes sir Bob I was thinking the same thing
So come get on this kid's rock, baw with da baw, dang dang
P-p-p-pow chicka pow chicka wow wow
Got your gal blowin' up a val-v-v-v-val-valve
Ain't slowin' down, throw in the towel, t-t-towel towel
Dumb it down, I don't know how, huh, huh, how, how
At least I know that I don't know
Question is are you bozos smart enough to feel stupid
Hope so, now hoe

[Bridge]

[Hook]
We're gonna rock this house until we knock it down
So turn the volume loud, cause it's mayhem 'til the a.m.
So crank the bass up like crazy and let yourself go, let yourself go
Say fuck it before we kick the bucket
Life's too short to not go for broke
So everybody, everybody (go berzerk) get your vials

[Scratches]

[Verse 3]
And they say that love is powerful as cough syrup in Styrofoam
All I know is I fell asleep and woke up in that Monte Carlo
With the ugly Kardashian
Lamar, oh sorry yo, we done both set the bar low
Far as hard, drugs are though that's the past
But I done did enough codeine to knock Future into tomorrow
And girl I ain't got no money to borrow
But I am tryin' to find a way to get you a loan, car note
Oh, Marshall Mathers, shit head with a potty mouth
Get the bar soap lathered, Kangol's and Carheartless Cargos
Girl you’re fixin' to get your heart broke, don’t be absurd man
You birdbrain baby I ain’t called anybody baby since Birdman
Unless you’re a swallow (ha ha)
Word, Rick word man you heard, but don’t be discouraged girl
This is your jam, unless you got toe jam

[Bridge]

[Hook 2x]
