Eminem Eminem - Rock Bottom Lyrics

Ah yeah, yo!
This song is dedicated to all the happy people
All the happy people who have real nice lives
And who have no idea whats it like to be broke as f___

Verse one:

I feel like Im walking a tight rope
Without a circus net
Im popping percasete
Im a nervous wreck
I deserve respect
But I work a sweat for this worthless check
Bout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
Full of venom and rage
Especially when Im engaged
And my daughters down to her last diaper
Thats got my a__ hyper
I pray that God answers, maybe Ill ask nicer
Watching ballers while they flossing in their pathfinders
These overnight stars becoming autograph signers
Well all gone blow up and leave the past behind us
Along with the small frys and average half pinters
While playa haters turn b____ like they have v_____s
Cause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind us
Money will brainwash you and leave your a__ mindless
Snakes slither in the grass spineless

Chorus: repeat 2x

Thats rock bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill
Thats rock bottom
When you want something bad enough youll steal
Thats rock bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear

Verse two:

My life is full of empty promises
And broken dreams
Im hoping things will look up
But there aint no job openings
I feel discouraged hungry and malnourished
Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished
And Im sick of working dead end jobs with lame pay
And Im tired of being hired and fired the same day
But f___ it, if you know the rules to the game play
Cause when we die we know were all going the same way
Its cool to be player, but it sucks to be the fan
When all you need is bucks to be the man
Plus a luxury sedan
Too comfortable and roomy in a six
They threw me in the mix
With all these gloomy lunatics
Walk around depressed
And smoke a pound of ses a day
And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today
My daughter wants to throw the ball but Im too stressed to play
Live half my life and throw the rest away

Chorus

Theres people that love me and people that hate me
But its the evil that made me this backstabbing, deceitful, and shady
I want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fame
That means Ill end up burning in hell scorching in flames
That means Im stealing your checkbook and forging your name
Lifetime bliss for eternal torture and pain
Right now I feel like just hit the rock bottom
I got problems now everybody on my blocks got em
Im screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot em
Holding two glocks, I hope your doors got new locks on em
My daughters feet aint got no shoes or socks on em
And them rings you wearing look like they got a few rocks on em
And while you flaunting them I could be taking them to shops to p___ them
I got a couple of rings and a brand new watch you want em?
Cause I never went gold of one song
Im running up on someones lawns with guns drawn

Chorus
