I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it. Spent a million a track and went over my budget. Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt? I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.
But Lose Yourself is Em's signature song. He performs it EVERY performance, and it's one of the dopest hip hop tracks ever created
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 am surprised at the lack of love for The Way I Am, that's my favorite Eminem song period. Great beat, great verses, and great hook. The song is just completely flawless to me, I don't think MM LP would have been the classic album that it was without this song being on there.
I agree, it is hard to choose. Rock Bottom, Sing For The Moment, The Way I Am, Stan, Till I Collapse, 8 Mile... Those are all great songs, on the same level with Lose Yourself, and The Way I Am is my most favourite when I think about it, but Lose Yourself is his best. So many people relate to it, it got an Oscar, it is the most successfull rap song ever.
