8 mile road

Interprete: Eminem
Disco: 8 mile

Letra de la canción:

Sometimes I just feel like

Quitting I still might

Why do I put up this fight?

Why do I still write?

Sometimes it's hard enough just dealing with real life

Sometimes I wanna jump on stage and just kill mics

And show these people what my level of skill's like

But I'm still white

Sometimes I just hate life

Something ain't right

Hit the brake lights

Case of the stage fright

Drawing a blank like

(blabbering)

It ain't my fault

Great big eye balls

My insides crawl

And I clam up

I just slam shut

I just can't do it

My whole manhood's just been stripped

I have just been ripped

So I must then get

Off the bus then split

Man fuck this shit

Yo, I'm going the fuck home

Rolling my shoulders as I run back to this 8 Mile Road

I'm a man

I'ma make a new plan

Time for me to just stand up and travel new land

Time for me to just take matters into my own hands

Once I'm over these tracks, man I'ma never look back

And I'm gone

I know right where I'm going

Sorry, momma, I'm grown

I must travel alone

Ain't gon' follow no footsteps I'm making my own

Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road

Walking these train tracks

Tryin to regain back

The spirit I had 'fore I go back to the same crap

To the same plant

And the same pants

Tryin to chase rap

Gotta move ASAP

Get a new plan

Momma's got a new man

Poor little baby sister, she don't understand

Sits in front of the TV buries her nose in her pad

And just colors until the crayon gets dull in her hand

While she colors a big brother, a mother and dad

Ain't no telling what really goes on in her little head

Wish I could be the daddy that neither one of us had

But I keep running from something I never wanted so bad

Sometimes I get upset cuz I ain't blew up yet

It's like a grew up but I ain't grow me two nuts yet

Don't got a rep, my step

Don't got enough pep

The pressure's too much, man I'm just tryin to do what's best

And I try

Sit alone and I cry

Yo I won't tell no lie

Not a moment goes by

That I don't pray to the sky

Please, I'm beggin you God

Please don't let me be pigeon holed in no regular job

Yo I hope you can hear me homie wherever you are

Yo, I'm telling you dog I'm bailing this trailer tomorrow

Tell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbye

Say whenever you need me, baby, I'm never too far

But yo I gotta get out there the only way I know

And I'ma be back for you the second that I blow

On everything I own

I'll make it on my own

Off to work I go

Back to this 8 Mile Road

I'm a man

Gotta make a new plan

Time for me to just stand up and travel new land

Time for me to just take matters into my own hands

Once I'm over these tracks, man I'ma never look back

And I'm gone

I know right where I'm going

Sorry, momma, I'm grown

I must travel alone

Ain't gon' follow no footsteps I'm making my own

Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road

You gotta live it to feel it

You didn't, you wouldn't get it

Or see what the big deal is

Why it was and it still is

To be walking this borderline of Detroit's city limits

It's different and it's a certain significance

A certificate of authenticity

You'd never even see

But it's everything to me

It's my credibiiity

You'd never seen, heard, smelled or met a real mc

Who's incredible or on the same pedestal as me

But yet still unsigned

Having a rough time

Sit on the porch with all my friends and kick dumb rhymes

Go to work and serve mc's in the lunch line

When it comes crunch time

Where did my punch lines go?

Who must I show?

To bust my flow

Where must I go?

Who must I know?

Or am I just another crab in the bucket

Cuz I ain't having to run with this little rabbits but fuck it

Maybe I need a new outlet

I'm starting to doubt shit

I'm feeling a little skeptical who I hang out with

I live like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shit

At the Salvation Army trying to salvage an outfit

And it's cold

Trying to travel this road

Plus I feel like I'm always stuck in this battling mode

My defenses are so up

The one thing I don't want

Is pity from no one

This city is no fun

There is no sun

And it's so dark

Sometimes I just feel like I'm being pulled apart

From each one of my limbs

By each one of my friends

It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin

Sometimes I feel like a robot

Sometimes I just know not

What I'm doing, I just blow, my head is a stove top

I just explode, the kettle gets so hot

Sometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't got

But I've learned

It's time for me to u-turn

Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned

Ain't no fallin' on next time I'll meet a new girl

I can not only play stupid or be immature

I got every ingredient all I need is the courage

Like I already got the beat all I need is the words

Got the urge

Suddenly it's a surge

Suddenly a new burst of energy has occured

Time to show these free world leaders the three and a third

I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird

Then I turn and cross over the median curb

Hit the burbs and all you see is a blur

I'm 8 Mile Road

I'm a man

Gotta make a new plan

Time for me to just stand up and travel new land

Time for me to just take matters into my own hands

Once I'm over these tracks, man I'ma never look back

And I'm gone

I know right where I'm going

Sorry, momma, I'm grown

I must travel alone

Ain't gon' follow no footsteps I'm making my own

Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road
