Say What You Say (The Eminem Show, Shady Records, 2002)
(feat. Dr. Dre & Timberland)
[Dr. Dre] Huh, so I'm out the game huh?
[Eminem] Yo Dre, we riding?
[Dr. Dre] Whatever
[Eminem] Well I'm with you homie
[Dr. Dre] OK, Let's handle this small shit
[Eminem] I was born to brew up storms, stir up shit Kick up dust, cuss 'til I slur up spit Grew up too quick, went through too much knew too much shit, Corrupt, and I'm pour it on like syrup, bitch Thick'n rich, sick and twisted Mr. Buttersworth Dre told me to milk this shit for what it's worth Till the cow just tilts and tips 'n stumbles to earth And if I fumble the verse, keep going First take, I make mistakes, just keep it No punches pull, no punches, that's weak shit Fake shit if I ever take shit, I eat shit Wasn't for him wouldn't be shit
[Dr. Dre] Creep with me, as we take a little trip down Memory Lane Been here longer than anyone in the game And I ain't got to lie about my age
[Eminem] But what about Jermaine?
[Dr. Dre] Fuck Jermaine, he don't belong speaking mine or Timbaland's name And don't think I don't read your little interviews and see what your saying I'ma giant, and I ain't gotta move till I'm provoked When I see you, I'ma step on you and not even know it You midget, Mini-Me, with a bunch of little Mini-You's Running around your backyard swimming pools Over 80 million records sold And I ain't have to do it with 10 or 11 year olds
[Chorus:] Cause what you say is what you say Say what you say how you say it whenever you saying it Just remember how you said it when you was spraying it So who you playing with huh huh huh huh?
Cause what you say is what you say Say what you say how you say it whenever you saying it Just remember how you said it when you was spraying it So who you playing with huh huh huh huh?
[Eminem] Second verse, it gets worse It gets no better than this Amateurs drink veteran piss From a Dixie cup, if you ever mix me up Or confuse me with a Cannibis or Dre with a Dupri Will rub it in, every club you're in, we'll have you Blackballed and make sure you never rap-a-fuckin'-gain Dre ain't having it, as long as I'm here to play Devil's Advocate
[Dr. Dre] If there was some magic shit I could wave Over the industry that could save it when I'm gone and buried to make sure the tradition carries on I would
[Eminem] If I could only use this power for good I wouldn't, not even if I could
[Dr. Dre] From the hood and I'm a hornet And I'ma only sting when I'm cornered
[Eminem] And I'ma only sucker punch and swing without warning And swing to knock somebody's fucking head off Cause I know, if they get up, I won't get a chance to let off Another punch, I'm punk-rock, no one's punk Don't give a fuck, white-Pac, so much spunk When I was little I knew I would blow up and sell a mill or grow up to be Atilla, Go nuts and be a killer
[Dr. Dre] And I'm something of a phenom One puff of the chron I'm unstoppable, I'm alive, I'm on top again There's no obstacle that I can't conquer So come along with us (Come On)
[Chorus:] Cause what you say is what you say Say what you say how you say it whenever you saying it Just remember how you said it when you was spraying it So who you playing with huh huh huh huh?
Cause what you say is what you say Say what you say how you say it whenever you saying it Just remember how you said it when you was spraying it So who you playing with huh huh huh huh?
[Dr. Dre] Now anybody who knows Dre Knows I'm about fast cars and Alize, partyin' all day But I handle my business cause it's work before play Don't look for trouble but I serve you gou
