Artist: Eminem Album: The Marshall Mathers LP 2 Song: Groundhog Day * Typed by: Nickolye16@aol.com * deluxe edition bonus track [Intro] "What is a nightmare? The dictionary tells us it is a terrifying dream, a nightmare." {*echoes*} [Eminem] I used to think I had bad luck, but I wasn't superstitious 'til one day I grew suspicious when I stepped on a crack on Aunt Edna's stoop and got pooped on by a group of stupid pigeons Then we flew the coop to Michigan to start a new be-ditchin Missouri from Michigan didn't work So we moved back to Missouri from Michigan, from Missouri back to Michigan Someone put me out my misery, I can't do this again Mom please stick to a decision - discipline, last thing I wanna do is listen She's like Lex Luthor bitchin, and rules are Krypto- -nite, so the walls I done lost my power to see through them bitches But I run into 'em, runnin through the kitchen Pretendin to be blind Superman, cause I had no super-vision But I did have a super power though, I could turn into Invisible Kid Disappear outta sight like a true magician And one day Uncle Ronnie brought over this new but different music into the picture and it became my new religion [Interlude] "I remember it clearly, even today." [Eminem] Move back to Michigan again, to live with my Grandma Nan, always itchin for somethin to do, was flippin through the radio stations one day and discovered this DJ who was mixin I'll say it to this day, if you ain't listened to The Wizard, you ain't have a fuckin clue what you was missin I'd zone out with my headphones, all I remember doin's wishin for shoes, fuck them stupid Pumas bitch, it's all about them new edition Troops, you get them LL Cool J coolin systems? Think I finally maneuvered to 8 Mile and Hoover and somehow I saw my future is in this, that's how I knew my mission Little boombox boomin, spittin, practicin numerous writtens When I sit in my room envisionin my dreams come to fruition I remember Proof would visit, couldn't wait to play him my new shit he'd go cuckoo ballistic Go through the roof for his shit It's like we knew the instant, we touched a mic that both of us two existed to do this shit, never quit, too persistent! [Interlude] "We are the underground empire." [Eminem] Started a group of misfits, Proof had a proposition If we all band together, there ain't no stoppin this shit Come up with aliases, bi-polar opposites and be ready to come off the top with sharp precision If you got dissed at the Shop cause if they caught you slippin They'd take your spot if someone got to rippin you, and you forgot your written Opportunity knocks once, it ain't knockin again It tried ding-dong ditchin shit, I fuckin got that bitch in a headlock, cut off his oxygen Slim It's not budgin like cocksuckin cinder blocks in the wind, now I got a pot to piss in Spot in that top position, coppin over the opposition Lookin like a dog that's pissin, leg up on the competition Promisin complete dominance, Sugar Ray Robinson I'm in the league Muhammad's in, Ali's my colleague, bombin 'em Probably end up on top of 'em, stompin 'em like Ndamukong I'm Russian/rushin like a Ukrainian LaDainian Tomlinson! Flow vomits in your face, competitors fall at my waist You spit a rhyme, I spit in a rhyme's FACE! So name the time, place to battle bitch, I'm still in that mindstate Don't make me step on you and make you whine/wine, grapes Cry babies, maybe my way that I use words is loose but you turds better be careful how you choose yours Cause feelings scar but egos bruise worse And the truth hurts, shit no wonder you're sore losers Now where's your poop, birds? Ooh, no more drippin in bird shit This song's a self-empowerment surgin words of encouragement, but discouragin the rappers, the rap game's God but the name's not James Todd, I'm just a word-Smith So let these words lift Cause all I got is bars for you dumbbells since yours ain't workin out, each verse is more merciless than the first is, and you ain't gotta wear no shoes and shirt in this bitch to get served, bloodthirst, revenge of the nerds (chka) [Interlude] "Know too, that you'll not escape my vengeance!" [Eminem] And I'm the kid with them ears like Dumbo's gone Word to Uncle Ron, I'm turnin into an non-humble don You blonde dumb hoes, all I got is dick for you to come blow on So start the show but I need a drumroll 'fore I go ON Better back away from the front row, get launched, show you I'm bigger than Dikembe Mutumbo on the fuckin Jumbotron! I'm a juggernaut, you do not wanna rumble, you bomboclaats I'll leave you stretched out like a fuckin YAWN! So mow the fuckin LAWN, your asses are blades of grass And I'm fuckin up this whole landscape of rap! The GOAT just ate eight acres, and eighth of that was just to make a path and take it straight to your favorite rapper! Oh look, my notebook looks smoke cooked Like the flow stood a foot over the flame on the stove soot Charred debris floatin like oak wood was burnin, return of the no good And I won't quit [Interlude] "And the next thing I knew something came crawling up from below. Something that made Godzilla look like a plain cat." [Eminem] And it don't quit, won't change, it's like a Groundhog's Day So crowd around y'all, cause you may, sayin bye-bye y'all hey I'm a monster, mush - I'm a monster, mush I'm a monster, mush - I'm a, ohh Turnin into a monster, mush I'm a monster, mush - with my [Sam Kinison sample] "DICK IN YOUR MOUTH ALL DAY!" (Haha) [Outro] "I'm not so sure I want to know from whence it came, but the white flesh creature's trail is easily followed. There, before that shimmering veil of light, the ivory skin slug thing." {*echoes*}
