So dark and so cold My friends don't know this other side of me
There's a monster inside of me It's quite ugly and it frigh-tens me
But they can't see what I can see There's a vacancy in my tummy
It's making me play hide and seek Like Jason, I'm so hungry
She's naked, see no privacy But I can see she wants me
So patient see, I try to be, but gee, why does she taunt me?
Close the drapes and she goes right to sleep, and I creep right through the front seat
So blatantly but silently cause I know that she's sound asleep
Who's waking me so violently, and why's he on top of me?
He's raping me, she tries to scream, somebody please get him off me
He's taping me, he's biting me, he's laughing like it's funny
She's scraping me, she's fighting me, she's scratching like some dumb freak
Escaping me, no die she see, I might just be Ted Bundy
Or Satan gee, what a sight to see, I'm dancing in my red panties
I'm crazy but it's alright with me, man life can be so empty
Stay away from me cause I'm dancing to quite a different drum beat

He uses alot of multis but they aren't really.....good multis. Like he rhymes red panties with empty with drum beat with sound asleep. Like those don't rhyme. And everything he says is so random it doesn't even make sense. I think its a good idea but he doesn't pull it off very well.

And the comparison to real life situations is stupid. The best songs are where they have a ton of multis but its also a real life situation. Forever and a Day, Behind Bars, two good examples. Those are truly great songs.

stay wide awake was insanely structured...but I seriously havent listened to that garbage since relapse dropped...nothin put me in a state of awe ...like there wasnt anything profound about him killin and raping women...as for recovery..he goes introspective poet on that bitch..multis and shit don't make shit[sometimes]...its the art.,and how u convey it

[Raids-God]

I Think theres a Few

I don't think so, but that really doesn't make a difference. Considering a 1st grader can understand the concept of Multi's. If they sat down for 5 hours they probabally could write the same material. Maybe not in a good flow form, but you understand what I'm saying...i mean anyone rhyme Placenta with December..cmon

this post could not be more wrong.

The truth is that most of the people on this board don't understand what Eminem does with his words. The multi-syllable rhyme patterns fly over their head. Are you fucking serious that a 1st grader would immediately understand multis? They might know what a rhyme is (well, maybe).. they associate that with cat/hat/rat. but if you told a class of 1st graders to craft some multis after giving a small 10 minute crash course, they would probably write the word "multi" & be confused from that point onward.

Multi-syllabic rhyming is the one good thing rap has introduced (well, at least popularised and developed) in modern poetry. Was Shakespeare rhyming more than two syllables? No. Chaucer? No. Writing multis is something that DOES take skill if you're actually saying something while doing it.

When I first heard The Slim Shady LP, I was like 10... i could definitely tell he was dope (even back then), but i couldn't exactly tell what he was doing. i knew he was rhyming more than one word @ a time & i'd never heard that before, ever. it wasn't until i got into rap that i fully knew what multis were.

The fact that you think a FUCKING 1ST GRADER could write something like Stay Wide Awake... is moronic to the extreme. You think all he's fucking doing is rhyming placenta with December? Dumbass.

Ahem...I don't even think you know what a Multi is sir or madem..

And I think you missed my entire point, but coming from the mind of someone of your stature it isn't surprising...

But it is FACT that grade school student's learn COMPOUND WORDS. Otherwise known as MULTI'S. I stated that

No, they prolly could not produce anything close to a song, or for that matter a song like Stay Wide Awake, But they can understand the general idea of a compound word and rhyming it with another COMPOUND WORD...

My point being that there is more to a song than just words rhyming...Everything has to be right.

A perfect example of someone like this is Canibus, the guy can write rhymes for DAYS, But can't make a song worth listening too.

The song doesn't impress me because I have seen songs like that done way better. Almost all of the material on Recovery blows Relapse AWAY...

And, yes i do know that there are more lines in the song than the one i qouted...

Your fanatical high that you are on Amuses me.

In terms of flow/multies - no. Not a single one. But in terms of everything else - yes. Lot of songs.

Wow, could that be more close-minded or what?

Why the FUCK are people so obsessed with Multi's on this site? Shits ridiculous

Yes multi's are good sometimes, yes Stay Wide Awake is a good song for that purpose, but I rate things how they are MUSICALLY.

STAY WIDE AWAKE is not good 'music'

Most of Recovery IS good music.

Game, set, match....

I just can't see why it's not worth appreciating multis and being "obsessed" with them. Along with flow diagrams It's very much a part of hip hop.

You misunderstood my post. My first line was sarcastic.

oh Okay...

[Devil'sAdvocate]

Stay wide awake was made for the sake of rhyming and to showcase Em's skill's.

Yo Honda Dude will u fuck off.
