Eminem - Rock Bottom

Lyrics from http://www.azlyrics.com

A-yo!
This song is dedicated to all the happy people
All the happy people who have real nice lives
And who have no idea whats it like to be broke as fuck

[Verse One:]
I feel like I'm walking a tight rope, without a circus net
I'm popping percocets, I'm a nervous wreck
I deserve respect; but I work a sweat for this worthless check
Bout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Full of venom and rage
Especially when I'm engaged
And my daughter's down to her last diaper
That's got my ass hyper
I pray that god answers, maybe I'll ask nicer
Watching ballers while they flossing in their pathfinders
These overnight stars becoming autograph signers
We'll all gone blow up and leave the past behind us
Along with the small fry's and average half pinters
While playa haters turn bitch like they have vaginas
Cause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind us
Money will brainwash you and leave your ass mindless
Snakes slither in the grass spineless

[Chorus (x2):]
That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill
That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough to steal
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear

[Verse Two:]
My life is full of empty promises
And broken dreams
I'm hoping things will look up
But there ain't no job openings
I feel discouraged hungry and malnourished
Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished
And I'm sick of working dead end jobs with lame pay
And I'm tired of being hired and fired the same day
But fuck it, if you know the rules to the game play
Cause when we die we know were all going the same way
It's cool to be player, but it sucks to be the fan
When all you need is bucks to be the man
Plus a luxury sedan
Too comfortable and roomy in a six
They threw me in the mix
With all these gloomy lunatics
Walk around depressed
And smoke a pound of ses a day
And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today
My daughter wants to throw the ball but I'm too stressed to play
Live half my life and throw the rest away

[Chorus]

There's people that love me and people that hate me
But it's the evil that made me this backstabbing, deceitful, and shady
I want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fame
That Means I'll end up burning in hell scorching in flames
That means I'm stealing your checkbook and forging your name
Lifetime bliss for eternal torture and pain
Right now I feel like just hit the rock bottom
I got problems now everybody on my blocks got 'em
I'm screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot 'em
Holding two glocks, I hope your doors got new locks on 'em
My daughter's feet ain't got no shoes or sock's on 'em
And them rings you wearing look like they got a few rocks on 'em
And while you flaunting them I could be taking them to shops to pawn them
I got a couple of rings and a brand new watch you want 'em?
Cause I never went gold of one song
I'm running up on someone's lawns with guns drawn

[Chorus]

Most underrated eminem song ever

[multigunlover]

The day Michael Jackson died is a day i easily forget.

But when eminem dies i will NEVER forget..

[johnalbritton1985]

if you like real rappers, theres this sorta new white rapper out called yelawolf, he is the shit, hes on shady records, and hes from bama and raps about bama and the shit that goes on, i love when rapper rap about real shit thats going on in real life for us real people, i dont give a shit how many lambo's you got in your garage, you gonna gimmi one? then get the fuck out my face with that shit

@Knasto1

There's lots of real rappers left, you just gotta go deep enough to find them. It's just the mainstream that has become.. well, mainstream.

[domesnipe]

@crackbxtswozniecki2 IK and its great  too

[ethangall]

@Knasto1 too true man

[FunkzGfx]

@Knasto1 hmm i hear that, to be fair music died around '2002' upwards in my opinion "/

[Knasto1]

@FunkzGfx There are no real rappers left. hip hop/rap went down the same way all other real expressions did. listen to ice cube back when he released check yourself and then look at him now, listen to snoop when he had 2pac at his side and then look at him today.. i could make this list look perpetual but i've already made my point. this culture is now a tamed beast stomped on until it lost all of its fangs. and you fanboys who are left are the ones who should've perished instead of the real G's

[mshadow1994]

"I'm screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot 'em" woow.

[reviewsnake]

@multigunlover its gonna be real sad when eminem dies

[FunkzGfx]

@MeAgainstTheRadio i Agree but eminem is still 1 of the best rappers out there lol

[jens646]

@MrMarshallSlimShady Im a big eminem fan,, but where does eminem talks about his life in Hell: the sequel, or Recovery.. only 'your never over' about proof is good, but only the real fans know that song because all the new fans listen to love the way you lie..
