I need some Clarifications about "Not Afraid" lyrics?

Postby lh2shay » May 19th, '10, 08:02

hi everybody,
this is my first post in this forum!
I just wanna know what does eminem means in "Not Afraid" when he said "Im married to the game like a fuck you for Christmas" ????????!!!

and also, "You said you was king, you lied through your teeth
For that fuck your feelings, instead of getting crowned you're getting capped"
Is he dissing anyone here? who is he talking about?

Like a Fuck You for Christmas, Your Gift is a curse... Fuck You = Curse. Your gift is a fuck you.

And the king statement....it's him talking to himself from a fan prospective.

You said you were king, you lied through your TEETH
Fot that fuck your feelings (fillings...fillings are like when u get a root canal...or somethings like that..u get a tooth filling)
Instead of getting crowned (if u chip like ur front tooth or something..u get a crown)
Your gettings capped (I know a cap is something to do with dental work also..I'm pretty sure its like that silver thing people get over their tooth if its badly destroyed....


Than also its kinda ment to sound like something else...

Just king...crown (kings crown)...capped (shot)

Dig?

I hope I did a good enough job explaining :/
this sig is DOPE!

1. 50 Cent dissed wayne, wayne dissed him back.
2. Em hops on Forever and murders him
3. he could make them look like bozos wonderin if he should spit this slow
4. and to the rapper on them sedative meds who said he was better, i bet you never seen freddy in a black a red knitted sweater
5. OMG wayne is open about his sedative addiction
6. Hops on DTW, murders him again.
7. Murders Drake "over" beat to prove drake sucks on it.
8. You said you was king, you lied through your teeth
For that fuck your feelings, instead of getting crowned you're getting capped"

Yea he definately does. Its not a coincidence that he mentions the word "teeth" then follows it up with feelings/fillings and then crowned and capped.

exactly. the subject of those lines is not dental whatever. but he chose words commonly used in dental work to talk about something completely different. wordplay people.

This.

It's way too much of a coincidence to be a random line that has two meanings :)
