"Slim Shady" lyrics
Hey, like a story (Oh my God, is that Avery?)
Hey
Sometimes it feel like I can save the world, sometimes I can't (Hey)
But I know I am, I'm superhero to her, man (Hey)
Let me tell y'all a story I heard (Hey)
I done fell in love with the foreign cars (Vroom)
The rule to the gang, gotta eat or starve
You see me outside with the heat regardless (Fah)
I don't give a goddamn if it's cold, no (BigWalkDog)
On the block, he just wanna beat the odds (Beat the odds)
Young nigga with me, keep playin' your cards
That nigga my dog, he done wrapped it all
But right now, he'll pull up with the pole, oh (Frrt)
He'll never change up for the fame (No)
But one thing I know, he is not the same
From the streets, so he tried to do the right thing
But as soon he seen red, then the light green
Soon as he seen green, then it mean go (Go)
He went sleep rich, but he woke up broke (Broke)
Probably ain't never had ghetto dreams before (Why?)
After that, he ain't never wanna sleep no more
'Cause when you go to sleep (You go to sleep), all you do is dream (Is dream)
Nightmares, they happen too, but sometimes nightmares ain't what they seem (Wow)
But he woke up high like, "Fuck a dream"
In a nightmare, gotta get the green
Say he feel like Shady, want his closet clean
Say it feel like somebody's watchin' me (Shady)
Say it feel like the feds watchin'
Put it in the wall, ain't no safe deposit
'Cause his money got big, he can't use no wallet (Wow)
And it's all dirty money, he can't use no washer
Hood nigga in the bank, I don't even get proper
Lil' white yeah, rich, say her daddy a doctor
Lil' niggas 'round me turn your ass to a faucet
They'll do it off the love, they don't need no dollars
They'll do it just because, they ain't got no options
If they play, make 'em send a hit like safi (Wow)
I went gold in the street, that was way 'fore poppin' (Woah)
I put on this AP just so they watch me (Woah)
Put on all of these chains 'cause it ain't no reachin' (Wow)
All through school, I ain't get no teachin' (Uh-uh)
Subtract bullshit, make sure it's leavin'
Add up the money, make sure it's equal (Frrt)
I done fell in love with the foreign cars (Vroom)
The rule to the gang, gotta eat or starve
You see me outside with the heat regardless (Fah)
I don't give a goddamn if it's cold, no (BigWalkDog)
On the block, he just wanna beat the odds (Beat the odds)
Young nigga with me, keep playin' your cards
That nigga my dog, he done wrapped it all
But right now, he'll pull up with the pole, oh (Frrt)
He'll never change up for the fame (No)
But one thing I know, he is not the same
