Jon Connor - Cleaning Out My Closet lyrics
rate meI know this shit don't work out for everybody
but I ain't everybody, I'm me!
You ever wanted something so bad, you do anything for it
Feel it in your soul and people tell you ain't ignored
Like you could go to sleep, wake up,
and it would be gone in the morning
Your parents say it's just a phase, like the shit ain't important
People see your passion, intentionally try to kill it
They're mad at yourself, for you chasing your dream
And they did it, cause before of you women only make it bitter.
They think they hate you, but they hate theirselves for being a quitter
As time goes on, they block it out and they try not to remember
Can't escape, you gotta face it when you look in the mirror
They want you at one point, and they still try to forget it
But fear beat them in, and they don't want to admit it
..guide you and ever give you a vice
When after time they're complaining and bitching about what's wrong with their life
About all the shit they wish they could change if they could do it twice
Just get it right the first time instead of rolling the dice
They're telling you your chance to make it is one in a million
They're lying, it's working, you're the only one that it's willing!
They're trying to discourage you cause they know for them that was too late
Misery left company, and they want you as a roommate!
Now you're ..hard to control your emotions
When the lack of support comes from the one who's the closest
When your mother and your father...
You can argue it how you want, but this how your closet!
[Chorus: Eminem]
I'm sorry momma!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to hurt you!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to make you cry;
but tonight I'm cleanin out my closet (one more time)
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I said I'm sorry momma!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to hurt you!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to make you cry;
but tonight I'm cleanin out my closet!
Man, I think about all the friends I had that abandoned their hopes
Living with regress, cause they're trying to live up to their folks
Or destructive relationships that drove them off from their path
The other half draining in the other dream that I have
I see women with a vision, let them niggers distract them
Had a plan, she get a man, she start hustling backwards
So preoccupied with him, and drama with other bitches
She'd be down, and can't get on to get on top of her business
..want that, pat on their back from their chick
..freeze two times over and ain't getting that shit.
cause it is, his ambition is drifted away
Looking you for inspiration even if you gotta say:
[Chorus: Eminem]
I'm sorry momma!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to hurt you!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to make you cry;
but tonight I'm cleanin out my closet (one more time)
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I said I'm sorry momma!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to hurt you!
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
I never meant to make you cry;
but tonight I'm cleanin out my closet!
