Not Afraid is the second worse song off of Recovery. But I still like it.

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

vs

Bitch I'ma kill you! You don't wanna fuck with me
Girls neither - you ain't nothing but a slut to me
Bitch I'ma kill you! You ain't got the balls to beef
We ain't gonna never stop beefing I don't squash the beef
You better kill me! I'ma be another rapper dead
for popping off at the mouth with shit I shouldn't said
But when they kill me - I'm bringing the world with me
Bitches too! You ain't nothing but a girl to me
.. I said you don't, wanna fuck with Shady (cause why?)
Cause Shady, will fucking kill you (ah-ha ha)
I said you don't, wanna fuck with Shady (why?)
Cause Shady, will fucking kill you..


Not Afraid loses

Put it on my wee wee!

Put it on my wee wee!
Banana, strawberry, pineapple, orange!

If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the camera is here
And the microphones
And they wanna know oh oh oh oh (the return)
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
And the lights are on
And they wanna show oh oh oh oh, yeah

Superstar loses, thereby Lupe loses

Yeah, I try to bump it at least 1 time a day. I even recorded the clip with my digital harddisc receiver. And it's on my cellphone too (both, song and clip).

How can you people claim you find this song in any way "inspiring"? Of Eminem's back catalogue of music, I have found a great many of his songs inspiring and related to them incredibly; however, this is by far his hardest song to relate to.

The only audience that would consider this relatable is an audience of Class A celebrities who feel like they deserve a pat on the back because they managed to stop doing drugs. Key of Awesome put it best when they changed the lyrics to "I'm just like you, i've been there too; i'm rich and famous, so I take that back, it's not true."

And i'm not hating or trolling either, it just genuinely amazes me that some people on here can be so stupid. How can you be so blind that you think you have to like every single song he makes, or that someone isn't a fan if they don't like some of his songs? You people are some of the biggest idiots I have ever had the misfortune to encounter. And I am genuinely curious as to how you feel inspired by this song.

Haha feel free not to explain your reasons, it only makes it look like you don't have a case to argue.

And yes i'm a moderator, I wasn't aware that you had to kiss Eminem's ass to be a moderator on here. Jesus man I swear this is so annoying, the amount of times this discussion has happened lol. The few of us who don't love every single thing he does get persecuted like we hate the guy when in reality we write more about the guy on here than most of you. It's fuckin ignorant

I consider it an insult that people try and say i'm not an Eminem fan because I don't like some of his songs, but you don't hear me complaining. Or am I supposed to put up with it cause i'm a mod and it's okay for other people to do it? Fuck that shit
