[00:03.79]Eminem - 8 Mile
[00:17.91]
[00:29.07]Sometimes I just feel like, quitting I still might
[00:31.65]Why do I put upthis fight, why do I still write
[00:34.24]Sometimes it's hard enough just dealin wit real life
[00:37.02]Sometimes I wanna jump on stage and just kill mics
[00:39.75]And show these people what my level of skills like
[00:42.32]But I'm still white, sometimes I just hate life
[00:45.05]Something ain't right, hit the brake lights
[00:47.69]Case of the stage fright, drawin a blank light
[00:50.58]Da-duh-duh-da-da, it ain't my fault
[00:53.60]Great big eyeballs, my insides crawl
[00:56.29]And I clam up, I just slam shut 
[00:58.42]I just can't do it, my whole manhoods
[01:01.05]Just been stripped, I have just been vicked 
[01:03.62]So i must then get, off this bus then split
[01:06.02]Man fuck this shit yo, I'm going the fuck home
[01:08.95]World on my shoulders as I run back to this 8 mile road
[Chorus]
[05:06.81][02:47.80][01:12.62]I'm a man, I'ma make a new plan 
[05:08.89][02:50.21][01:14.16]Time for me to just stand up, and travel new land
[05:11.50][02:53.04][01:16.96]Time for me to just take matters into my own hands
[05:14.37][02:55.51][01:19.42]Once I'm over these tracks man I'ma never look back
[05:16.78][02:58.13][01:22.10](8 mile road) And I'm gone, I know right where I'm going
[05:19.46][03:00.88][01:24.89]Sorry mama I'm grown, I must travel alone
[05:22.09][03:03.61][01:27.40]Ain't gunna follow these footsteps, I'm making my own
[05:24.72][03:06.06][01:30.10]Only way I know how to escape from this 8 mile road
[Eminem]
[01:33.15]I'm walking these train tracks, tryin to regain back
[01:35.78]the spirit I had fore I go back to the same crap
[01:38.37]To the same plant, in the same pants
[01:41.04]Tryin to chase rap, gotta move ASAP
[01:43.69]And get a new plan, mommas got a new mam
[01:46.01]Poor little baby sister, she don't understand 
[01:49.08]Sits in front of the T.V, buries her nose in the pad
[01:51.27]And just colors until the crayon gets dull in her hand
[01:54.01]While she colors her big brother, her mother and dad
[01:56.70]Ain't no tellin what really goes on in her little head
[01:59.33]Wish I could be the daddy that neither one of us had
[02:02.00]But I keep runnin from something I never wanted so bad!
[02:04.63]Sometimes I get upset, cause I ain't blew up yet
[02:07.59]It's like I grew up, but I ain't grow me two nuts yet
[02:10.18]Don't got a rep my step, don't got enough pep
[02:12.84]The pressures to much man, I'm just tryin to do whats best
[02:15.54]And I try, sit alone and I cry
[02:17.82]Yo I won't tell no lie, not a moment goes by 
[02:20.67]That I don't pray to the sky, please I'm beggin you god
[02:23.24]Please don't let me bitchin holdin no regular job
[02:25.89]Yo I hope you can hear me homey wherever you are
[02:28.44]Yo I'm tellin you dawg I'm bailin this trailer tomorrow
[02:31.19]Tell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbye
[02:33.81]Say whenevr you need me baby I'm never to far
[02:36.50]But yo I gotta get out there the only way that I know
[02:39.29]And I'ma be back for you the second that I blow
[02:42.02]On everything I own, I'll make it on my own
[02:45.29]Off to work I go, back to this 8 mile road
[Chorus]
[Eminem]
[03:09.17]You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it
[03:11.48]Or see what the big deal is, why it wasn't the skillest
[03:14.31]To be walkin this boarder line of Detroit city limits
[03:16.83]It's different, it's a certain significance, a certificate
[03:19.34]Of authenticity, you've never even seen
[03:21.92]But it's everthing to me, it's my credibility
[03:24.72]You've never seen heard smelled or met a real MC
[03:27.34]Who's incredible upon the same pedastal as me
[03:29.96]But yet I'm still unsigned, having a rough time 
[03:33.04]Sit on the porch wit all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
[03:35.72]Go to work and serve MC's in the lunchline
[03:38.39]But when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines go
[03:41.14]Who must I show, to bust my flow
[03:44.09]Where must I go, who must I know
[03:46.67]Or am I just another crab in the bucket 
[03:49.01]Cause I ain't havin no luck with this little Rabbit so fuck it
[03:51.65]Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm startin to doubt shit
[03:54.38]I'm feelin a little skeptical who I hang out with
[03:56.85]I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shit
[03:59.58]At the salvation army tryin to salvage an outfit
[04:02.59]And it's cold tryin to travel this raod
[04:05.27]Plus I feel like on stuck in this battlin mode
[04:07.52]My defenses are so up, and one thing I don't want
[04:10.39]Is pity from no one, this city is no fun
[04:13.04]There is no sun, and it's so dark
[04:15.79]Sometimes I just feel like I being pulled apart
[04:18.41]From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
[04:20.74]It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin
[04:23.41]Sometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
[04:26.36]What I'm doin I just blow, my head is a stove top
[04:28.65]I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
[04:31.65]Sometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't got
[04:34.23]But I've learned, it's time for me to u-turn
[04:37.08]Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
[04:39.43]Ain't no falling no next time I meet a new girl
[04:42.07]I can no longer play stupid or be immature
[04:44.69]I got every ingredient, all I need is the courage
[04:47.31]Like I already got the beat, all I need is the words
[04:50.38]Got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
[04:52.75]Suddenly a new burst of energy has ocurred
[04:55.14]Time to show these free world leaders at three in the third
[04:57.88]I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
[05:00.51]Then I turn and cross over the median curb
[05:03.19]Hit the verbs and all you see is a blur from 8 mile road
[05:29.03]
