Eminem - Cleaning Out My Closet

where's my snare?
I have no snare in my headphones
There you go, yeah, yo, yo

have you ever been hated, or discriminated against? i have
i've been protested and demonstrated against
picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times
sick in the mind, of the mothafuckinkid thats behind
all this commotion, emotions, run deep as oceans explodin
tempers flarin from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin
not takin nothin from no one give 'em hell as long as i'm breathin
keep kickin ass in the morning and taking names in the evening
leave 'em with a taste as sour as vinegar in their mouth
see they can trigger me, but they never figure me out
look at me now, i'll bet ya probably sick of me now
aint you mama i'ma make you look so ridiculous now.

i'm sorry mama
i never meant to hurt you
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet

one more time

I said i'm sorry mama
i never meant to hurt you
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet

i got some skeletons in my closet and i dont know if no ones know it
so before they thrown me inside my coffin and close it, i'ma expose it
i'll take you back to '73, before i ever had a multi-platinum selling CD
i was a baby, maybe i was just a couple a months
my faggot father must have had his panties up in a bunch
cuz he split, i wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
no i dont, on second thought i just fuckin wish he would die
i look at Hailie and i couldn't picture leavin her side
even if i hated Kim i'd grit my teeth and i'd try to make it work
with her al least 4 Hailie's sake
i maybe made some mistakes but i'm only human
but i'm man enough to face them today
what i did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb
but the smartest shit i did was take them bullets out of that gun
cuz i'd have killed em,
shit i would have shot Kim an' him both, its my life
i'd like to welcome y'all to The Eminem Show.

i'm sorry mama
i never meant to hurt you
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet

one more time

I said i'm sorry mama
i never meant to hurt you
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet

now i would never diss my own mama just to get recognition
take a second to listen for you think this record is dissin
but put yourself in my position, just try to envision
witnessin your mama poppin prescription pills in the kitchen
bitchin that someones always going through and shits missin'
going through public housing systems victim of Munchausen's syndrome
my whole life i was made to believe i was sick when i wasnt
till i grew up, now i blew up, it makes you
sick to ya stomach, doesnt it?
wasnt it the reason you made that CD for me Ma?
so you could try to justify the way you treated me Ma?
but guess what yer gettin older now and its cold when your lonely
and Nathan's growing up so quick, he's gonna know that your phony
and Hailie's getting so big now, you should see her she's beautiful
but you'll never see her, she wont even be at your funeral
see what hurts me the most is you wont admit you was wrong
bitch, do ya song, keep tellin yourself that you was a mom
but how dare you try to take what you didnt help me to get
you selfish bitch i hope you fuckin burn in hell for this shit
remember when Ronnie died and you said you'd wish it was me?
well guess what, i am dead, dead to you as can be.

i'm sorry mama
i never meant to hurt you
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet

one more time

i said i'm sorry mama,
i never meant to hurt you,
i never meant to make you cry
but tonight i'm cleaning out my closet
