Eminem: Can I Kick It? (Excerpt from Vibe)

[DƎRDYPK]

good read
I think the personal stuff he left out is that Hallie found him passed out & called 911

[Tranquil]

Wow, that was a good read, i onistly didnt relize how bad his drug adiction was

[al passino]

props good read!

in underground he says, "Cause last year was a tragedy that landed me smack dab in rehab"
does he mean the rehab in 2005.. this wouldn't fit beacause i don't think he recorded the song in 2006...
or does he mean the hospital methadone thing? what you think??

[Brandon S]

Wow, so he really was fuckin close 2 death, hard 2 imagine that.

[Sofi]

Oh my, i didnt had realized how bad this shit was.. thank God the ambulance got there on time! If not.. Oh! i dont even wanna think about that!
Good read

[InMy64]

Is this issue of vibe out yet?

[D'Leh]

wow.... i dont wanna think about it, he's back now, and his the best in this shit!!!

[Robbie G]

I bet that music he made when he was a pill fiend was awesome

Yeah man.

I could do with an emo eminem album.

[jmarcroyal]

Wow, I didnt know he was that close to death, its almost as if he was Biggie and managed to dodge the bullets like the Matrix or something. Its crazy to think he could have gone, I hope he uses this experience as an inspiration for his music, he has lots more he can do.

It would be nice to have another 5 albums or more!

[mister shady94]

goddang. i cant belive it. almost dead. hmm i wonder what that part was that he left out.

[SmokinBongs]

So that's what the song "Hello" is about!
This album just keeps getting better and better.

Hello! (Hello?)
Allow me to introduce myself (Myself...)
My name is... Shady
It's so nice to meet you! (So nice to meet you...)
It's been a long time... (Long time!)
I'm sorry I've been away so long (So long...)
My name is... Shady
I never meant to leave you! (Never meant to leave you!)
Yo...

You see that chick in the gym, checkin' me out?
Any second I'm 'bout, to stick her neck in my mouth...
I lose a pill and I'm recklessly wrecking the house!
That was supposed to be breakfast, where the heck is it now?
There's the necklace i lost, right next to Stephanie's blouse...
Man i should check to see if my mom left any out!
Nope, guess I'll reroute!
Maybe somewhere in the depths of the couch...
Ooh! Jackpot! Yeah, open sesame mouth!
Down the hatchet the feeling you can't match it!
I rap-tap-tap on your door with a damn ratchet...
Attack-tack-tackin' a whore with a damn hatchet!
A nap sack packed with like 40-some Xanex's!
Shortly come back, I'm tryin' to score me some lap dances,
I'm 'bout to relapse, so baby pour me some Jack Daniel's
Formula 44-D and 40's with mad capsules
The bad apple spoils the bunch... back at ya

I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello!
And are you menstruating baby my little friend's waiting to say hello...
The way your titties are wigglin' and your booty's shakin' like Jell-O!
Girl I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello...
Yo...

My equilibrium's off, must be the lithium...
I don't need to buy any drugs, man people give me 'em!
It just becomes everyday extra curriculum...
No reason in particular, it was strictly fun!
A 5th of rum and two bottles of 151'
Fifty-one people asleep in my damn living room!
Excuse me Hun, but what is your name, Vivian?
I woke up next to you naked and uhh.. did we humm?
Of course we did but didn't I strap jimmy Hun?
I'm lookin' for the torn wrapper but there don't seem to be one...
No offense baby, girl I don't mean any harm,
But disease is something I'm tryin' to keep my penis free from!
I find the package and I'm cool, I immediately run...
Like Speedy Gonzales to see if I see anyone,
Who might have a couple of 3's, I'm fiendin' for some!
My head is pounding to the beat of the drum...

Well I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello!
Do you happen to have anything on you to make my mood mellow?
Some are opal and some are pink, some are blue and some are just yellow!
Girl I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello...

Oh, those were the days, they certainly were...
It's hurtin' me to know that I'll be closing that curtain for good...
(Word, word, ch-word, word, ch-word, ch-ch-word)
I'll second that and a third
Rushed to emergency surgery to try to flush me
Because of the drugs that he purges,
He's no longer getting the 300 bucks for these Percodans
Thus his getting to be where he lustfully serves too've been
Pain is hitting his knee and his muscles be hurtin' him
Tirelessly on the phone tryin' to russle up
Muscle relaxers for his back and a couple of Paxils
Now he's doublin' backwards and he's stumblin' back
Slipped and fell, hit his backbone, heard something go crack
Now he's up in the bathroom like he's bustin' a nap
Almost ended it that soon because of the fact
I'm just bustin' my own chops while I'm bustin' a rap
Resuscitated and rejuved, so fuck it I'm back.

Well I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello!
Do you happen to have anything on you to make my mood mellow?
Some are opal and some are pink, some are blue and some are just yellow!
Girl I don't mean any harm all I wanted to do was just say hello...

And so I'm sayin...
Hello! (Hello?)
Allow me to introduce myself (Myself...)
My name is... Shady
It's so nice to meet you! (So nice to meet you...)
It's been a long time... (Long time!)
I'm sorry I've been away so long (So long...)
My name is... Shady
I never meant to leave you! (Never meant to leave you!)

Yo...
It's like startin over...
Clean slate...
Ha!
