Wow, Em really destroyed your social life. I mean,with who do you drink/do drugs now?


:confusion: They were crazy. I'm not like them though.
You don't know what they've been through, don't judge.
Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try? Why am I dieing to live; if I'm just living to die? Someone tell me why. -Tupac

:p I know, but I give Tupac the props because I liked the way he said it.
Just like everyone gives Eminem props for the whole "You got enemies? Good, that means you stood up for something in your life" < or whatever, when Winston Churchill originally said that ;)

This reminds me, I haven't listened to NA in ages, probably since Recovery come out in June. I'm gonna have another listen and reform my opinion. But for now, Power.

two different types of songs. Not afraid is more like an anthem and has uplifting and inspirational lyrics whereas as Power is better lyrically. Not Afraid only cos its em but power still a great song :smoking:

“Dealing with backstabbers,
there was one thing I learned. They're only powerful when you got your back turned.”


Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
They say I never knew which way I was goin
But everywhere I go they keep playin my song.

Power.
...The mortician of love, sent from above
Forced entry, the more wenchy, the more stingy I become
Been doing this for more than a quarter century, I'm just numb...

Well when i first heard Not Afraid i was disappointed. When they released a video for Not Afraid i seemed to appreciate the track a lot more. It was my least played Recovery track after LTWYL though. I think when he performed it at the AMA's, especially the way he performed it(The intro, soft spoken voice) was really good so yeah i like the track but it took a lot of time to grow on me. I would say it is average all in all.

When i first heard Power i thought it was pretty good. Sounded different the song wasn't on repeat or anything i thought it was good. The more i hear it though it makes me feel somewhat sick to my stomach. If you put me on an Island for the rest of my life and told me i can listen to only Not Afraid or Power i would choose Not Afraid as i feel it has more longevity.
