Love Me
50 Cent / Eminem / Obie Trice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Niggas, I'm still grinding (yeah), I still hearing those sirens
I'm still getting chased by those lights
Only the light's lime, and my mic's on
And my time is none, because I'm writing more
And I ain't here to meet a soul in this business
I’m here to eat, speak, until these hoes feel this (for sure)
And I can’t let y'all derail me, man
I got Young Kobie homey, you gotta let go of Obie
Cause Obie be back, (going nowhere, man) we got them craps going on
And that yac going on, soon as a nigga touch down, back from touring
It's whatever, put that on the cheddar, man
But in the meantime, it's Jimmy Iovine time
Chase cheese, rhyme 'til my voice give out
This is it my niggas, this what we boast about
Now I'm here, so shut your motherfucking mouth, and show me love, bitch

I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life (I don't love you, bitch)
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night
I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night

Right we wanna love alcohol
We wanna love guns, we wanna love money
We don't love no bitches, though

There's a certain mystique when I speak, that you notice
Cause that's sort of unique cause you know it's me
My poetry's deep, and I'm Stillmatic, the way I flow to this beat
You can't sit still, it's like trying to smoke crack and go to sleep
I'm strapped, it's known any minute I could snap
I'm the equivalent of what would happen if Bush rapped
I bully these rappers so bad lyrically
It ain't even funny, I ain't even hungry, it ain't even money
You can't pay me enough for you to play me
It's cockamanie you just ain't zany enough to rock with Shady
My noodle is cock-a-doodle, my clock's coo-coo
I got screws loose, yea the whole kit and caboodle, I'm just brutal
It's no rumor, I'm numero uno, assume it
There's no humor in it no more, you know
I'm rolling with a swollen bowling ball in my bag
You need a fag to come and tear a new hole in my ass, you better love me, bitch

I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night (and all the bitches say)
I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night

My buzz is crazy in the hood, they holla my name
If it ain't about the flow, it's 'bout the stones and the chain
If I was you, I'd love me too, I roll like a boss
Nine eleven Porsche same color as cranberry sauce
I ain't gon' front, I thought R. Kelly was the shit
Let me find out he fucking 'round with Bow Wow bitch
Niggas eating popcorn right, rewinding the tape
Now shorty mama in precinct, hollering rape
I'm convinced, man, something really wrong with these ho's
I thought Lil' Kim was hot, 'til she start fucking with her nose
I used to listen to Lauryn Hill, and tap my feet
Then the bitch put out a CD and didn't have no beats
That boy D'Angelo, he determined not to fail
That nigga went butt-ass, for his record to sell
My back shots 'll help Ashanti hit them high notes
And Big been taught Charli B'More to deep throat (yea)

I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night (and all the bitches say)
I just wanna love ya
For the rest of my life
I wanna hold you in the mornin'
Hold you through the night

I love the burners




The money, the bunnies, I just wanna hold ya
I just wanna love ya

Niggas, I'm still grinding (yeah), I still hearing those sirens
I'm still hustling even though I keep hearing police sirens.


I'm still getting chased by those lights Only the light's lime, and my mic's on
I'm still being pursued by the cops but the only lights I'm interested in are the ones on stage when my mic is on.


And my time is none, because I'm writing more And I ain't here to meet a soul in this business I’m here to eat, speak, until these hoes feel this (for sure) And I can’t let y'all derail me, man
I don't have time for meetings because I'm focused on writing more music. I'm all about success and won't let anyone distract me from my goal.


I got Young Kobie homey, you gotta let go of Obie Cause Obie be back, (going nowhere, man) we got them craps going on And that yac going on, soon as a nigga touch down, back from touring
I have my artist Young Kobie to focus on, and while Obie is gone for a while, we have other business ventures going on including gambling and drinking as soon as we return from touring.


But in the meantime, it's Jimmy Iovine time Chase cheese, rhyme 'til my voice give out This is it my niggas, this what we boast about Now I'm here, so shut your motherfucking mouth, and show me love, bitch
I'm taking advantage of my time with music producer Jimmy Iovine and will continue to rap until I can't anymore. I'm proud of my accomplishments and demand respect from my critics.


Right we wanna love alcohol We wanna love guns, we wanna love money We don't love no bitches, though
We enjoy drinking, having guns and making money but don't care about women.


There's a certain mystique when I speak, that you notice Cause that's sort of unique cause you know it's me My poetry's deep, and I'm Stillmatic, the way I flow to this beat You can't sit still, it's like trying to smoke crack and go to sleep
People recognize my unique style and deep lyrics when I rap on this beat. It's impossible to stay still when listening to me, it's like trying to be calm after smoking crack.


I'm strapped, it's known any minute I could snap I'm the equivalent of what would happen if Bush rapped I bully these rappers so bad lyrically It ain't even funny, I ain't even hungry, it ain't even money You can't pay me enough for you to play me
I'm always armed and on edge, ready to snap at anyone. I'm so dominant in my rapping abilities that it's almost scary. I'm not even motivated by money to continue to succeed. You can't bribe me or pay me enough to make me perform.


It's cockamanie you just ain't zany enough to rock with Shady My noodle is cock-a-doodle, my clock's coo-coo I got screws loose, yea the whole kit and caboodle, I'm just brutal
You're all crazy if you think you can keep up with me. My thoughts and actions are all over the place like a rooster crowing and cuckoo clock. My brain is not all there, making me an unpredictable and brutal adversary.


It's no rumor, I'm numero uno, assume it There's no humor in it no more, you know I'm rolling with a swollen bowling ball in my bag You need a fag to come and tear a new hole in my ass, you better love me, bitch
It's not a rumor, I'm the best in the game, so accept it. It's not funny anymore because I'm serious about my success. I carry a heavy burden with me at all times, making it difficult to mess with me. You need to be tough to face me, or you'll regret it.


My buzz is crazy in the hood, they holla my name If it ain't about the flow, it's 'bout the stones and the chain If I was you, I'd love me too, I roll like a boss Nine eleven Porsche same color as cranberry sauce
People in my community celebrate my success and know my name. They only care about my music and my jewelry. If I were you, I would respect and admire me too because I live a luxurious lifestyle and drive a fancy car.


I ain't gon' front, I thought R. Kelly was the shit Let me find out he fucking 'round with Bow Wow bitch Niggas eating popcorn right, rewinding the tape Now shorty mama in precinct, hollering rape I'm convinced, man, something really wrong with these ho's I thought Lil' Kim was hot, 'til she start fucking with her nose
I used to be a fan of R. Kelly but if he's messing around with another rapper's girl, it's not cool. People are watching videos and gossiping about a woman claiming rape by R. Kelly. I think something is not right with these women, as evident by Lil' Kim changing her appearance with plastic surgery.


I used to listen to Lauryn Hill, and tap my feet Then the bitch put out a CD and didn't have no beats That boy D'Angelo, he determined not to fail That nigga went butt-ass, for his record to sell My back shots 'll help Ashanti hit them high notes And Big been taught Charli B'More to deep throat (yea)
I used to enjoy Lauryn Hill's music but was disappointed when her new CD lacked good beats. D'Angelo did what it took to succeed, even if that meant posing naked. My sexual abilities can help Ashanti sing better, and Biggie taught Charli B'More how to be a better performer.


I just wanna love ya For the rest of my life I wanna hold you in the mornin' Hold you through the night (and all the bitches say)
I wanna be with you and love you forever. I want to be close to you morning and night. (this repeated chorus line is referring to a woman, contrast to previous verses)

I love the track but I don’t think it sounds like any specific time period. The track is one of a kind.

Listening to this about 14 yrs old on a mp3 player on the bus ride home, playing gta games once I got home, them was the days.

@weirdnameballgame3665

"Those were"

@strengthbeyondstrength9301

+Weird name Ball game

I don't think JayZPimpin101 was learning anything useful in school. What a fucking mess!

"I remember listening to this song when I was just 14 years old! I would play it regularly through my MP3 player on the bus ride home after school. When I got home I would play GTA games. I loved my life back then. Those were the days."
