| Dre, just let it run
|
| Ayo, turn the beat up a little bit
|
| Ayo
|
| This song is for anyone
|
| Fuck it, shut up and listen
|
| Ayo
|
| I sit back with this pack of Zig-Zag's 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 motherfuckin' 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 ten feet (Liftin' you ten feet) in the air
|
| I don't care who was there and who saw me just jaw 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 all you (Of all you), I don't mean to be mean
|
| But that's all I can be, it's just me
|
| And I am whatever you say I am
|
| If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
|
| In the paper, the news, every day 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, every day I am
|
| I don't know, that's just the way I am
|
| 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 city
|
| 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
|
| And I am whatever you say I am
|
| If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
|
| In the paper, the news, every day 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, every day I am
|
| I don't know, that's just the way I am
|
| 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, let's stop with the fables
|
| I'm not gonna be able to top a "My Name Is"
|
| And pigeon-holed into some poppy 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 every fan that I get
|
| But I can't take a shit in the bathroom without
|
| Someone standin' by it! |
| (Standin' by it) No, I won't sign your autograph
|
| You can call me an asshole, I'm glad
|
| 'Cause I am whatever you say I am
|
| If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
|
| In the paper, the news, every day 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, every day I am
|
| I don't know, that's just the way I am |
