[00:33.450]Have you ever been hated
[00:34.800]or discriminated against?
[00:36.590]I have, I've been protested and demonstrated against.
[00:39.800]Picket signs for my wicked rhymes.
[00:41.950]Look at the times. Sick is the mind
[00:43.860]of the motha fuckin' kid that's behind
[00:46.130]all this commotion. Emotions run deep
[00:48.120]as ocean's explodin.'
[00:49.550]Tempers flaring from parents,
[00:51.050]just blow 'em off and keep goin.'
[00:52.580]Not takin' nothin' from no one,
[00:54.040]give 'em hell long as I'm breathin.
[00:55.740]Keep kickin' ass in the mornin,'
[00:57.270]an' takin' names in the evening.
[00:59.020]Leavem with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth.
[01:02.170]See, they can trigger me
[01:03.600]but they never figure me out.
[01:05.240]Look at me now,
[01:06.690]I bet ya probably sick of me now.
[01:08.680]Ain't you mama,
[01:09.650]I'ma make you look so ridiculous now.
[01:11.880]I'm sorry, Mama.
[01:14.950]I never meant to hurt you.
[01:18.160]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[01:21.260]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[01:22.970]
[01:23.470]one more time
[01:24.660]I'm sorry, Mama.
[01:27.870]I never meant to hurt you.
[01:31.150]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[01:34.230]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[01:36.290]
[01:38.120]I got some skeletons in my closet
[01:39.740]and I don't know if no one knows it.
[01:41.470]So before they thrown
[01:42.540]me inside my coffin and close it,
[01:44.270]I'ma expose it. I'll take you back to
[01:46.480]73 before I ever had a multi-platinum sellin' CD.
[01:50.890]I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months.
[01:54.000]My faggot father must have
[01:55.600]had his panties up in a bunch,
[01:57.340]cuz he split.
[01:58.260]I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye.
[02:00.450]No, I don't on second thought,
[02:02.070]I just fuckin' wished he would die.
[02:03.850]I look at Hailie
[02:04.750]and I couldn't picture leavin' her side.
[02:06.980]Even if I hated Kim, I grit my teeth and I'd try
[02:10.320]to make it work with her at least for Hailie's sake.
[02:12.420]I maybe made some mistakes
[02:13.780]but I'm only human.
[02:15.000]But I'm man enough to face them today.
[02:17.670]/What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb
[02:20.050]but the smartest shit
[02:21.000]I did was take them bullets out of that gun.
[02:23.200]Cuz id'a killed 'em,
[02:24.460] shit I would have shot Kim an' him both.
[02:26.460]It's my life, I'd like to welcome y'all to The Eminem Show.
[02:29.930]I'm sorry, Mama.
[02:32.560]I never meant to hurt you.
[02:35.970]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[02:39.050]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[02:41.280]one more time
[02:42.500]I'm sorry, Mama.
[02:45.610]I never meant to hurt you.
[02:48.970]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[02:52.020]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[02:55.670]Now I would never dis my own mama just to get recognition.
[02:58.930]Take a second to listen for you think this record is dissin,'
[03:01.990] But put yourself in my position.
[03:03.930] ust try to envision witnessin' your
[03:06.200]Mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen,
[03:08.810]bitchin' that someone's always g
[03:10.040]oin' throuh her purse and shits missin.' Going through
[03:12.270] public housing systems, victim of Munchausen's syndrome.
[03:15.470]My whole life I was made to believe
[03:17.060]I was sick when I wasn't 'til I grew up,
[03:19.070] now I blew up. It makes you sick to ya stomach,
[03:21.630]doesn't it?
[03:22.390]Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me, Ma?
[03:24.870]So you could try to justify the way you treated me, Ma?
[03:28.040]But guess what,
[03:29.100]yer gettin' older now and it's cold when your lonely.
[03:31.630]An' Nathan's getting' up so quick,
[03:33.130]he's gonna know that your phoney.
[03:34.600]And Hailie's getting' so big now,
[03:36.710]you should see her, she's beautiful.
[03:38.100]But you'll never see her,
[03:39.220]she won't even be at your funeral.
[03:41.270]See what hurts me the most is you won't
[03:43.270]admit you was wrong. Bitch, do ya song.
[03:45.340]Keep tellin' yourself that you was a mom.
[03:47.650]But how dare you
[03:48.610]try to take what you didn't help me to get.
[03:50.650]You selfish bitch,
[03:51.940]I hope you fuckin' burn in hell for this shit.
[03:54.090] Remember when
[03:54.960]Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?
[03:57.220]Well, guess what, I am dead.
[03:59.040] Dead to you as can be.
[04:00.630]I'm sorry, Mama.
[04:03.380]I never meant to hurt you.
[04:06.780]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[04:09.830]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
[04:12.150]one more time
[04:13.260]I'm sorry, Mama.
[04:16.350]I never meant to hurt you.
[04:19.670]I never meant to make you cry, but tonight
[04:22.890]I'm cleanin' out my closet.
