A yo, I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be The most meanest MС on this - on this Earth And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve All this tension dispensin me sentences gettin it Stress that's been eaten me recently offa this chest And I rest again peacefully - But at least have the decency in you to leave me alone When you freaks see me out in the streets when I'm eatin or feedin my daughter To not come and speak to me - I don't know you and no, I don't owe you a mo-therfuck-ing thing I'm not Mr. N'Sync I'm not what your friends think I'm not Mr. friendly I can be a prick If you tip me my tank is on empty No patience is in me and if you offend me I'm liftin you 10 feet In the air I don't care who is there and who saw me jus jaw you Go call you a lawyer go file you a lawsuit I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe I'm tired of all you - I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me
[Hook:] And I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't then why would I say I am In the paper, the news everyday I am Radio won't even play my jam Cuz I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't then why would I say I am In the paper, the news everyday I am I don't know it's just the way I am
Sometimes I just feel like my father I hate to be bothered With alla this nonsense it's constant Oh it's his lyrical content the song "Guilty Concience" has gotten such rotten responses And all-a this controversy circles me And it seems like the media immediately Points a finger at me - So I point one back at em but not the index or pinky Or the ring or the thumb it's the one you put up When you don't give a fuck when you won't just put up With the bullshit they pull cuz they fulla shit too When a dude's gettin bullied and shoots up his school And they blame it on Marilyn - And the heroin where were the parents at And look where it's at Middle America now it's a tragedy now it's so sad to see An upperclass city havin this happenin - Then attack Eminem cuz I rap this way But I'm glad cuz they feed me the fuel that I need For the fire to burn in it's burnin and I have returned
[Hook:] And I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't then why would I say I am In the paper, the news everyday I am Radio won't even play my jam Cuz I am whatever you say I am If I wasn't then why would I say I am In the paper, the news everyday I am I don't know it's just the way I am
I'm so sick and tired of being admired That I wish I would just die or get fired And drop from my label and stop with the fables I'm not gonna be able to top what my name is And pigeon-holed into some pop-y sensation To cop me rotation at rock-an-roll stations And I just do not got the patience -- To deal with these cocky Caucasians Who think I'm some wigger who just tries to be black Cuz I talk wit an accent and grab on my balls So they always keep askin the same fucking questions What school did I go to what hood I grew up in And why the who what when the where and the how till I'm grabbin my hair and I'm tearin it out Cuz they drivin me crazy - I can't take it I'm racin I'm pacin I stand and I sit I'm thankful for every fan that I get But I can't take a shit in the bathroom Without someone standin by it No I won't sign your autograph You can call me an asshole I'm glad
