 Eminem: Whatever..
         Dre, just let it run
         Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
         Aiyyo.. this song is for anyone.. fuck it
         Just shut up and listen, aiyyo..
         I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag
         Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
         The most meanest MC on this -- on this Earth
         And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse
         And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
         And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
         All this tension dispensin these sentences
         Gettin this stress that's been eatin me recently off of this chest
         And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)..
         But at least have the decency in you
         To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
         In the streets when I'm eatin or feedin my daughter
         To not come and speak to me (speak to me)..
         I don't know you and no,
         I don't owe you a mo-therfuck-in thing
         I'm not Mr. N'Sync, I'm not what your friends think
         I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick
         If you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)..
         No patience is in me and if you offend me
         I'm liftin you 10 feet (liftin you 10 feet).. in the air
         I don't care who is there and who saw me destroy you
         Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
         I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
         I'm tired of arguin' (of arguin')..
         I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me
 
 Manson: And I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         Radio won't even play my jam
         Cause I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         I don't know it's just the way I am
 
 Eminem: Sometimes I just feel like my father, I hate to be bothered
         With all of this nonsense it's constant
         And, "Oh, it's his lyrical content -
         - the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses"
         And all of this controversy circles me
         And it seems like the media immediately
         Points a finger at me (finger at me)..
         So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie
         Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up
         When you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up
         With the bullshit they pull, cause they full of shit too
         When a dude's gettin bullied and shoots up his school
         And they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn).. and the heroin
         Where were the parents at? And look where it's at
         Middle America, now it's a tragedy
         Now it's so sad to see, an upper class ci-ty
         Havin this happenin (this happenin)..
         Then attack Eminem cause I rap this way (rap this way)..
         But I'm glad cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
         To burn and it's burnin and I have returned
 
 Manson: And I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         Radio won't even play my jam
         Cause I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         I don't know it's just the way I am
 
 Eminem: I'm so sick and tired of bein admired
         That I wish that I would just die or get fired
         And dropped from my label and stop with the fables
         I'm not gonna be able to top on "My Name is.."
         And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
         To cop me rotation at rock'n'roll stations
         And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)..
         To deal with these cocky caucasians who think
         I'm some wigger who just tries to be black cause I talk
         With an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep askin
         The same fuckin questions (fuckin questions)..
         What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
         The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
         'til I'm grabbin my hair and I'm tearin it out
         Cause they drivin me crazy (drivin me crazy).. I can't take it
         I'm racin, I'm pacin, I stand and I sit
         And I'm thankful for ev-ery fan that I get
         But I can't take a SHIT, in the bathroom
         Without someone standin by it
         No I won't sign your autograph
         You can call me an asshole I'm glad
 
 Manson:  And I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         Radio won't even play my jam
         Cause I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         I don't know it's just the way I am
 
 Eminem:  And I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         Radio won't even play my jam
         Cause I am, whatever you say I am
         If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
         In the paper, the news everyday I am
         I don't know it's just the way I am
