EMINEM - A**hole lyrics

rate me

feat. Skylar Grey

Came to the world at a time when it was in need of a villain

An asshole, that role I think I succeed in fulfilling

But don't think I ever stopped to think I was speaking to children

Everything was happening so fast, it was like I blinked, sold three million

Then it all went blank, all I remember

Is feeling ridiculous ‘cause I was getting sick of this feeling

Like I am always under attack, man

I could have stacked my shit list to the ceiling

Women dish him but really thinking

If anyone ever talks to my little girls like this I would kill him

Guess I'm a little bit of a hypocrite

When I'm ripping shit, but since when did this many

People ever give a shit what I had to say, it's just my opinion

If it contradicts how I'm living

Put a dick in your rear end, that's why

Every time you mention a lyric, I thank you for it

For drawing more attention toward it

‘Cause it gave me an enormous platform of platitude

Thought I was that important

But you can't ignore the fact that I fought for the respect

And battle for it, mad awards, act taht annoyed

Atta boy, they told me to slow down, and I just zoned out

Good luck trying to convince a blonde

That's like telling Gwen Stefan' that she sold out

‘Cause I was tryna leave, no doubt

In anyone's mind one day I'd go down

In history think they know now

Because everybody knows

Everybody knows that you're just an asshole

Everywhere that you go, people wanna go, "Oh, everyone knows"

Everybody knows, so don't pretend to be nice

There's no place you can hide, you are just an asshole, everyone knows

Everyone knows

Thanks for the support, asshole, thanks for the support, asshole

Quit acting salty

I was counting on you to count me out as Asher Roth

When he round-a-bout dissed me to shout me out

Thought I was history

But goddamn, honkey, that compliment's like backhanding a donkey

Good way to get your ass socked in the mouth, lay 'em off it

But what the fuck is all this thrash talking about

The fight was fixed, I'm back and you can't stop me

You knock me down, I went down from the counter

I fell but the fans caught me, and now

You're gonna have to beat the fucking pants off me

To take my belt, word to Pacquiao

Momma said there ain't nothing else to talk about

Gotta go in that ring and knock them out

Or you better not come out

It's poetry emotion like Freddie Roach when he's quoting Shakespeare

So what if the insults are revolting

Even Helen Keller knows life stinks

You think it's a joke till you're bullet riddled

But you should give little shit what I think

This whole world is a mess

Gotta have a goddamn vest on your chest and a Glock

Just to go out watch Batman

Who needs to test the testicles, not that man

Half of you don't got the guts and intestinal blockage

Rest of you got lap bands stuck to this model

Before they put bath salts and all those water bottles in Colorado

So get lost, Waldo

My soul's escaping through this asshole that is gaping

A black hole that I'm swallowing this track whole

With a pack torn of paper

But I'm not taking no crap, hoe, here I go down the back pole

And I'm changing back into that old maniac in fact there it go

Trying to dip through the back door retreating ‘cause everybody knows

Everybody knows that you're just an asshole

Everywhere that you go, people wanna go, "Oh, everyone knows"

Everybody knows, so don't pretend to be nice

There's no place you can hide, you are just an asshole, everyone knows

Everyone knows

Holy mackerel, I'm the biggest jerk on the planet Earth

I smack the girl off the mechanical bull, then attract the bull

Thinking we have some magnetic pull

Screaming “ICP in this bitch, how the fuck do the magnets work?”

‘Cause you're attractive but we ain't attractable

Hate to be dramatical but I'm not romantical

I'm making up words you can understandable, it's tragical

Thinking some magical shit's gonna happen? That ain't practical

You cracking a joke, it's laughable ‘cause me and love's like a bad combination

I keep them feelings locked in a vault so it's safe to say I'm uncrackable

My heart is truly guarded, full body armor

Bitch, you just need a helmet ‘cause if you think you're special, you're retarded

Thinking you're one of a kind, like you got some platinum vagina

You’re a train wreck, I got a one track mind

Shorty, you're fine but you sort of remind me of a 49er

‘Cause you been a gold digger since you was a minor

Been tryina hunt me down like a dog ‘cause you're on my ass

But you can't get a scent because all of my spare time is spent

With my nose in this binder so don't bother trying

Only women that I love are my daughters

And sometimes I rhyme and it sounds like I forget I'm a father and I push it farther

So Father forgive me if I forget to draw the line

It's apparent I shouldn't have been a parent, I'll never grow up

So to hell with your parents and motherfucking father time

It ain't never gonna stop

A pessimist who transforms you in an optimist in his prime

So even if I'm half dead, I'm half alive

Throw all my half empty glass in a cup, now my cup is runneth over

And I'm about to set it on you like a motherfucking coaster

I'm going back to what got me here, yeah, cocky

And can't not be rude off, so fear not my dear and dry up your teardrops, I'm here

White America's mirror so I feel awkward and weird

You stare at me and see yourself because you're one, too

You shouldn't be as shocked because everybody knows
