Soldier
陝譟EMINEM Lyrics

I'm a soldier, I'm a soldier, I'm a soldier, I'm a soldier
I am a fighter and will never back down.

Never was a thug, just infatuated with guns
I was never a criminal, just fascinated by firearms.

Never was a gangsta 'til I graduated to one
I only became a gangster after being initiated into one.

And got the rep of a villain, for weapon concealin'
My image became one of a bad person because I carried weapons.

Took the image of a thug, kept shit appealin'
I tried to look like a criminal to be more appealing.

Willin' to stick out my neck for respect
I am prepared to risk my life for respect.

If it meant life or death, never live to regret what I said
If it came down to it, I would die before regretting my words.

When you're me, people just want to see if it's true
As a celebrity, people want to verify if what they hear about me is accurate.

If it's you, what you say in your raps, what you do
They want to know if what I rap about is true to who I am in reality.

So they feel, as part of your obligation to fulfill
They feel it's my responsibility to fulfill their expectations.

When they see you on the streets, face to face, are you for real
They want to know if I am genuine when they meet me in person.

In confrontation ain't no conversation, if you feel
In a conflict, there's no time to negotiate if you feel threatened.

You're in violation, any hesitation'll get you killed
If you violate me, you'll get killed if you hesitate to fight me.

If you feel it, kill it. If you conceal it, reveal it
If you're going to fight, do it rather than hide it.

Being reasonable will leave you full of bullets
If you try to reason, it can get you killed in a fight.

Pull it, squeeze it 'til it's empty, tempt me, push me, pussies
I'll keep firing my gun until the magazine is empty, don't provoke me.

I need a good reason to give this trigger a good squeeze
I won't fire my gun without a good reason.

I love pissin' you off, it gets me off
I enjoy annoying and angering others, it gives me pleasure.

Like my lawyers when the fuckin' judge lets me off
I feel like my lawyers when I get away with something I shouldn't have.

All you motherfuckers gotta do is set me off
All anyone has to do is provoke me and I'll respond violently.

I'll violate and all the motherfucking bets be off
If provoked, I will take action and there will be no more bets on what I will do.

I'm a lit fuse, anything I do, bitch, it's news
I am always ready to explode, and everything I do becomes news.

Pistol whippin' motherfucking bouncer 6'2"
I will violently strike someone who's much larger than me with a gun.

Who needs bullets, soon as I pull it you sweat bullets
Just the sight of my gun is enough to make you nervous.

An excellent method to get rid of the next bully
Violence is an effective way to deal with the next person who tries to bully me.

It's actually better 'cause instead you murdering'
It's actually better to hurt someone than to kill them, because then you can do it again.

You can hurt 'em and come back again and kick dirt at 'em
I can hurt them now, come back later and hurt them again, and show them no mercy.

It's like pourin' salt in the wounds, assault and get sued
It's like adding insult to injury by attacking someone and then being sued for it.

You can smell the lawsuits soon as I waltz in the room
I am well known for causing lawsuits because of my aggressive behavior.

Everybody halts and stops, calls the cops
Everyone stops in fear and calls the police when they see me.

All you see is bitches coming out their halter tops
All you see are scared women running out of the room in a panic.

Running and ducking out the Hot Rocks parking lot
People are running away from me out of the Hot Rocks parking lot.

You'll all get shot whether its your fault or not, 'cause
Everyone will get hurt by me whether they deserve it or not.

I spit it slow so these kids know that I'm talking to 'em
I rap slowly so that children can understand my message.

Give it back to these damn critics and sock it to 'em
I am giving criticism back to my critics by rapping about it.

I'm like a thug with a little bit of Pac influence
I try to emulate Tupac's style in my raps.

I spew it, and look how I got you bitches rockin' to it
I rap my lyrics and I get people excited and dancing along to them.

You motherfuckers could never do it like I could do it
You could never rap like I do, so don't even try.

Don't even try it, you'll look stupid, do not pursue it
If you try to rap like me, you'll fail and look foolish.

Don't ever in your life try to knock the truest
Don't ever try to criticize me for being real and genuine.

I spit the illest shit ever been dropped in two inch
I rap the most sickening and powerful lyrics ever heard.

So ticky-tock, listen as the sound ticks on the clock
Listen as time passes, and my fame and influence grows.

Listen to the sound of Kim as she licks on the cock
Listen to the sound of Eminem's ex-girlfriend Kim in sexual acts.

Listen to the sound of me spillin' my heart through this pen
Listen to the emotion and honesty in my raps as I write from the heart.

Motherfuckers know that I'll never be Marshall again
People know I can never go back to who I was before fame.

Full of controversy until I retire my jersey
I will always be controversial, even after I stop rapping.

'Til the fire inside dies and expires at 30
I'll keep rapping until I lose the drive and passion for it, probably around the age of 30.

And Lord have mercy on any more of these rappers that verse me,
Other rappers should fear me because of how I will lyrically destroy them.

And put a curse on authorities in the face of adversity
I will rebel against those in power when faced with challenges and obstacles.

Yo left, yo left, yo left
Instructions to move to the left.

Right, left
Instructions to move to the right and then left.
