[Verse 1:] So this is it... This is what I wished for Just isn't how I envisioned it Feigned to the point of imprisonment I just thought the shit'd be different But something changed The minute that I got a whiff of it I started to inhale it Smell it Started sniffin' it And it became my cocaine I just couldn't quit I just wanted a little bit Then it turned me (in)to a monster I became a hypocrite Concert after concert I was raking in the dough Rolling in green Had the game hemmed up Like a sewing machine But I was losing my freedom There was nowhere for me To not go and be seen And just go and be me And there was no in-between You either loved it or hate it Every CD, critics gave it a 3, then 3 Years later, they'd go back and re-rate it And call the Slim Shady LP the greatest The Marshall Mathers was a classic The Eminem Show was fantastic But Encore just didn't have the caliber to match it I guess enough time just ain't passed, yet A couple more years, that shit'll be ill-matic And eight years later, I'm still at it Divorce, re-married A felon A father Sleeping pill addict And this is real talk I feel like the Incredible Hulk My back has been broke, and I can still walk
[Chorus:] So be careful what you wish for 'Cause you just might get it And if you get it then you just might not know What to do wit' it, 'cause it might just Come back on you ten-fold
I said Be careful what you wish for 'Cause you just might get it And if you get it then you just might not know What to do wit' it, 'cause it might just Come back on you ten-fold
[Verse 2:] I got a letter from a fan, that said He's been praying for me Every day and for some reason It's been weighing on my mind heavy 'Cause I don't read every Letter I get, But something told me to go ahead and open it, but Why would someone pray for you when they don't know you? You didn't pray for me when I was local And as I lay these vocals I think of all the shit I had to go through Just to get to where I'm at I've already told you at least A thousand times in these rhymes I appreciate the prayer, but I already got God on my side And it's been one hell of a ride, hasn't it? Just watchin' it from an opposite standpoint Man, boy's got to look Nuts And that's the only word I can think of right now On how To describe the shit This is like a vibe you get Go ahead and bob to it Just watch what you wish for, 'cause I got the shit
[Chorus:] So be careful what you wish for 'Cause you just might get it And if you get it then you just might not know What to do wit' it, 'cause it might just Come back on you ten-fold
