You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it.
I realized, 'Yo, I can't do anything in moderation. I don't know how. '
I ain't looking back only forward.
It's just hard to meet new people, in my position.
I was born a premature birth. My first words were "bleep, bleep" and "Curse, Curse" My breath still stinks and I'm on my 3rd cert.
I feel like a spoilt rapper. I get to pick and choose everything.
When you feel like you've had it up to here, and you're mad enough to scream, but you're sad enough to tear, that's rock bottom.
I love the attention but I don't like too much of it.
I sold my soul to the devil. I'm going to hell. I'm headed to hell. I want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fame. That Means I'll end up burning in hell scorching in flames. Satan'll be in to see me later to see if I'm interested in being partners. Devil worshippin', Satan music.
It feels good to have your work respected again.
I have a slight bit of OCD, I think. I'm not walking around flipping light switches. But when I say I'm going to do something, I have to do it.
Why is it so hard for people to believe that white people are poor?! I wouldn't say I lived in a ghetto, I'd say I lived in the 'hood. The same friends I had back then are the same people on tour with me now.
I can never turn my back on a city that made me.
You can't control who likes you. If I got Backstreet Boy fans what am I supposed to do? Turn them away? Whoever likes my stuff, likes my stuff but just know Slim Shady is hip hop, I grew up on hip hop, it's the music I love and it's the music I respect. I respect the culture. . . that's me.
My only scheme was to be a rapper.
Life. . . by Marshall Mathers. . . What is life ? Life is like a big obstacle put in front of your optical to slow you down. . . And everytime you think you gotten past it It's gonna come back around and tackle you to the damn ground
I've accomplished enough with the music that I haven't had to go out there and do other things to over-saturate.
I make music to make you sick of fake music hate music like devil worshippin Satan music. So say your prayers your Hail Mary's and Jesuses. Take two sticks, tape 'em together and make a crucifix.
If somebody is smoking a joint in a movie, I say it's a cigarette - a big cigarette if it's a Cheech and Chong movie.
I have big nuts. huge nuts. Elephantitis of the balls - that's what I have.
