Hi kids, do you like violence?

This line explains what is to come from eminem, his story, his legend. One of his most classic lines tbh.

[CrashBand]

"Here's a tab of acid for your ear"

"I can take my finger off, old dog old trick
new twist, like, actually take my finger off"

"It's not a suitcase, more of a briefcase
I be on bussiness, and my new place isn't a duplex
More of an escape, I been gone trippin'
Kiss the kids and kick the dogs, fix the dinner, fix the faucet
Wash the dish and wish for rain and when it pours make sure in the midst of all
You don't forget to call me to come back"

"It's the adderall admiral, writing wholly mackeral"

"I'm about to take this beat, and teach you about the agony of defeat
in this football game on the street
and no it aint two-hand touch, it's rough tackle"

"b]Been in this game for years, it made me an animal
there;s rules for this shit, but I ripped up the manual"

''I make yo mouthpiece obese like della reese
When I release you loose teeth like Lil Cease''

Biggie - Long Kiss Goodnight

lyrically (0:10 - 1:00)
sonically
greatest opening flow

[TranSlucEnt]

"From a head full of pressure rest the senses that I clutch/
Made a date with divinity, but she wouldn't let me fuck/
I got touched by a hazy shade of god help me change/
Caught a rush on the floor from the life in my veins"

"It's the caffeine, the nicotine, the milligrams of tar/
Its my habitat it needs to be clean, its my car/
It's the fast talk they use to abuse and feed my brain/
Its the catbox it needs to be changed/
Its the pain its women/
Its the plight for power its government/
Its the way your given knowledge slow without controlling subtle hints/
Its rubbin it, itching it, its applying cream/
its the foreigners sight seeing with high beams its in my dreams/
its the monsters that i conjure its the marijuana/
its the embarrassment, displacement, its where I wander/
its my genre, its Madonna's videos/
Its game shows its cheap liquor, blunts, its bumper stickers with rainbows"


"I used to know this women who had the most beautiful tattoos on the topsides of both of her hands"

"I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp/
I live life like the captain of a sinking ship"
The one thing I can guarantee Im like a stepping razor/
I suggest you stay fair with me"

"I bleed the blood of a cold stone that roams without a shadow/
Im only deep enough to realize that Im shallow"

[Devil'sAdvocate]

Slug is so fucking good.

I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp

gr8 pick bruv.

"I'm so goddamn tired, can't tell if I'm done, or just un-inspired
And don't give me that you can be somebody speech
That ain't your place"

"Am I looking for the one, or am I looking for the one night
Do I wanna get some, or do i just wanna get someone that my mum likes?

"I'm so fucking unlucky to be so lucky
Every now and then I wish I could like myself as much as you love me"

"I hear her knocking on my head again
Don't wanna let her in
But I can't get rid of her
I need my medicine"

"I wish that I could be there to take away the wrong
Sit around all day and listen to your favourite song"

"I’ve got an angel on my top lip,
but I’ve got demon in my heart and he’s telling him he’s not shit"

"A little man living inside a little room
A cigarette or two, with a side of a little tune"

"Another door won’t open
I need air but windows closing"

"When it comes to chicks nigga, I don't fucking leave 'em
I cuff n keep ‘em, take ‘em to church, teach ‘em how to trust in jesus"

"They say money cant buy you love
But I cant buy you shit
So you gotta buy me lunch
And we start arguing
And you win"

[Devil'sAdvocate]
