Eminem - Rock Bottom Lyrics
Ah yeah, yo!This song is dedicated to all the happy peopleAll the happy people who have real nice livesAnd who have no idea whats it like to be broke as *****Verse one:I feel like Im walking a tight ropeWithout a circus netIm popping percaseteIm a nervous wreckI deserve respectBut I work a sweat for this worthless checkBout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debtMinimum wage got my adrenaline cagedFull of venom and rageEspecially when Im engagedAnd my daughters down to her last diaperThats got my ass hyperI pray that God answers, maybe Ill ask nicerWatching ballers while they flossing in their pathfindersThese overnight stars becoming autograph signersWell all gone blow up and leave the past behind usAlong with the small frys and average half pintersWhile playa haters turn ***** like they have vaginasCause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind usMoney will brainwash you and leave your ass mindlessSnakes slither in the grass spinelessChorus: repeat 2xThats rock bottomWhen this life makes you mad enough to killThats rock bottomWhen you want something bad enough youll stealThats rock bottomWhen you feel you have had it up to hereCause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tearVerse two:My life is full of empty promisesAnd broken dreamsIm hoping things will look upBut there aint no job openingsI feel discouraged hungry and malnourishedLiving in this house with no furnace, unfurnishedAnd Im sick of working dead end jobs with lame payAnd Im tired of being hired and fired the same dayBut ***** it, if you know the rules to the game playCause when we die we know were all going the same wayIts cool to be player, but it sucks to be the fanWhen all you need is bucks to be the manPlus a luxury sedanToo comfortable and roomy in a sixThey threw me in the mixWith all these gloomy lunaticsWalk around depressedAnd smoke a pound of ses a dayAnd yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just todayMy daughter wants to throw the ball but Im too stressed to playLive half my life and throw the rest awayChorusTheres people that love me and people that hate meBut its the evil that made me this backstabbing, deceitful, and shadyI want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fameThat means Ill end up burning in hell scorching in flamesThat means Im stealing your checkbook and forging your nameLifetime bliss for eternal torture and painRight now I feel like just hit the rock bottomI got problems now everybody on my blocks got emIm screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot emHolding two glocks, I hope your doors got new locks on emMy daughters feet aint got no shoes or socks on emAnd them rings you wearing look like they got a few rocks on emAnd while you flaunting them I could be taking them to shops to pawn themI got a couple of rings and a brand new watch you want em?Cause I never went gold of one songIm running up on someones lawns with guns drawnChorus
