You're Never Over
Eminem [www.fareck.com] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The days are cold livin' without you
The nights are long, I'm growing older
I miss the days alone, thinkin' about you
You may be gone, but you're never over

If Proof could see me now, I know he'd be proud
Somewhere in me deep down, there's something in me he found
That made him believe in me, now no one can beat me now
You try, it'll be them doors, on Dre's Phantom believe me clowns
That means suicide homie, you'll never throw me
Off of this course, blow me
Bitch I do this all for the sport only
But I want it all, I'm not just talking awards homie
And the balls in my court and it's lonely
On top of the world when you're the only
One with the balls and your shorts
To leave them jaws on the floor with no re-
Morse, remember that when they get to doggin' you boy homie
So y'all can just get to bloggin' about bologna
I'm not gonna stop the saga
Continue, no stoppin' the force Obi, I'm moppin' the floors
With them, I keep tryna pass it, but they keep on droppin' the torch
And it won't be, long til this sport is O-V-
E-R, just blazin' and we knockin' them doors and no we
Ain't pumpkins on Halloween but we'll show up on your porch, so be
Careful what you say, there ain't no punks over here so follow me
Through the fog like I'm S-N-double-O-P
Let me guide you through the smoke G
If only I wasn't travellin' down this road by my lonely
No one who knew me like you will ever know me
I don't think you understand how much you meant to me

The days are cold livin' without you
The nights are long, I'm growing older
I miss the days alone, thinkin' about you
You may be gone, but you're never over
And it don't stop (oh)
And it don't quit (oh)
And it don't stop (oh)
And it don't quit (oh)
And I miss you (oh)
I just miss you (oh)
I just miss you (oh)
Homie I'll never forget you (no)

For you, I wanna write the sickest rhyme of my life
So sick it'll blow up the mic, it'll put the dyna in mite
Yeah it'll make the dopest MC wanna jump off a bridge and shit hisself
Tap dancin' all over the beat, it'll jump off the page and spit itself
Yeah it's the best thing I could do right now for you Doodi is to rap
So I'm a fuck til I die, yeah I'm a do it to death
And itstead of mourning your death, I'd rather celebrate your life
Elevate to new height, step on the gas and accelerate, I'm a need two mics
Cause the way that I'm feelin' tonight, everything I can just do right
There's nothing that I can do wrong, I'm too strong and I'm just too hyped
Just finished the rhyming and bust it and excuse the corny metaphor
They'll never catch up to all this energy that I've mustered
So God just help me out while I fight through this grievin' process
Tryna process this loss is makin' me nauseous
But this depression ain't takin' me hostage
I've been patiently watchin' this game, pacin' these hallways
You had faith in me always
Proof you knew I'd come out of this slump, rise from these ashes
Come right back on they asses, and go Mike Tyson on these bastards
And I'm a show 'em, blow 'em out the water slaughter 'em homes
I'm on so many bells the only place they can hit me is below
Homie I know I'm, never gonna be the same with you
I woulda never came in this game, I'm going insane without you
Matter of fact it was just the other night, had another dream about you
You told me to get up, I got up and spread my wings and I flew
You gave me a reason to fight, I was on my way to see you
You told me nah Doodi you're not layin' on that table I knew
I was gonna make it, soon as you said think of Hailie, I knew
There wasn't no way that I was gonna ever leave them babies, and Proof
Not many are lucky enough to have a guardian angel like you
Lord I'm so thankful, please don't think I don't feel grateful, I do
Just grant me the strength that I need, for one more day to get through
So homie this is your song, I dedicate this to you
I love you Doodi

The days are cold livin' without you
The nights are long, I'm growing older
I miss the days alone, thinkin' about you
You may be gone, but you're never over
And it don't stop (oh)
And it don't quit (oh)
And it don't stop (oh)
And it don't quit (oh)
And I miss you (oh)
I just miss you (oh)




I just miss you (oh)
Homie I'll never forget you (no)

Line by Line Meaning

The days are cold livin' without you
Life feels empty and lonely without you


The nights are long, I'm growing older
Time feels slow and meaningless without you by my side


I miss the days alone, thinkin' about you
I long for the moments I spent reminiscing about you


You may be gone, but you're never over
Although you're no longer here, your memory will always remain


If Proof could see me now, I know he'd be proud
If Proof, my friend and mentor, could witness my current state, he would feel proud of me


Somewhere in me deep down, there's something in me he found
Proof discovered a special quality within me, buried deep inside


That made him believe in me, now no one can beat me now
His belief in my abilities has made me unstoppable


You try, it'll be them doors, on Dre's Phantom believe me clowns
If anyone dares to challenge me, they will face the wrath of Dr. Dre and his powerful network


That means suicide homie, you'll never throw me
Attempting to defeat me is a self-destructive act, as I am indomitable


Off of this course, blow me
Don't try to divert me from my path, I won't be swayed


Bitch I do this all for the sport only
I engage in this rap game solely for the love of it, not for personal gain


But I want it all, I'm not just talking awards homie
While I have a passion for the art, I also aspire for great success and recognition


And the balls in my court and it's lonely
I am in control of my destiny, but it can feel isolating


On top of the world when you're the only
Achieving success can make you feel invincible, especially when you're the only one at the top


One with the balls and your shorts
The one who possesses courage and confidence


To leave them jaws on the floor with no re- Morse, remember that when they get to doggin' you boy homie
My ability to impress and surprise others without hesitation should serve as a reminder to those who criticize or doubt me


So y'all can just get to bloggin' about bologna
Let the critics waste their time discussing irrelevant and insignificant matters


I'm not gonna stop the saga
I will continue my journey and story without interruption


Continue, no stoppin' the force Obi, I'm moppin' the floors
With unwavering determination, I will keep moving forward, overcoming obstacles, and asserting my dominance


With them, I keep tryna pass it, but they keep on droppin' the torch
I try to pass on my legacy and knowledge, but those who receive it often fail to carry it forward


And it won't be, long til this sport is O-V- E-R, just blazin' and we knockin' them doors and no we
It won't be long until I completely dominate and excel in this rap game, making my mark and achieving success


Ain't pumpkins on Halloween but we'll show up on your porch, so be
Just like unexpected visitors on Halloween, we will make our presence known and demand attention


Careful what you say, there ain't no punks over here so follow me
Be cautious with your words because there are no weaklings in my circle, so you better listen and learn from me


Through the fog like I'm S-N-double-O-P
I will guide you through uncertain and challenging times, much like the way Snoop Dogg traverses through thick smoke


Let me guide you through the smoke G
Allow me to lead and enlighten you amidst confusion and chaos


If only I wasn't travellin' down this road by my lonely
If only I wasn't navigating this journey alone


No one who knew me like you will ever know me
No one else understands me and my struggles the way you did


I don't think you understand how much you meant to me
It's difficult to express the depth of your significance in my life


And it don't stop (oh)
And the momentum and determination do not cease


And it don't quit (oh)
And I won't give up or back down


And I miss you (oh)
And I deeply long for your presence


I just miss you (oh)
I simply cannot fill the void you left behind


Homie I'll never forget you (no)
My friend, I will always remember and cherish you


For you, I wanna write the sickest rhyme of my life
In your honor, I desire to create the most outstanding piece of lyrical art


So sick it'll blow up the mic, it'll put the dyna in mite
It will be so incredible and powerful that it will have a profound impact on the music scene


Yeah it'll make the dopest MC wanna jump off a bridge and shit hisself
It will expose the talent and skill of other rappers, making them feel inferior


Tap dancin' all over the beat, it'll jump off the page and spit itself
The lyrics will effortlessly flow and captivate the listener, creating a vivid picture in their minds


Yeah it's the best thing I could do right now for you Doodi is to rap
Music is the most significant way for me to express my love and dedication to you, Doodi


So I'm a fuck til I die, yeah I'm a do it to death
I will devote my life to rap, giving it my all until the very end


And itstead of mourning your death, I'd rather celebrate your life
Rather than focusing on the sadness of losing you, I choose to honor and cherish the impact you had


Elevate to new height, step on the gas and accelerate, I'm a need two mics
I will rise above and reach greater levels, pushing myself to the limit, even needing two microphones to contain my talent


Cause the way that I'm feelin' tonight, everything I can just do right
I am so inspired and passionate that everything I create feels perfect and flawless


There's nothing that I can do wrong, I'm too strong and I'm just too hyped
I am unstoppable, powerful, and filled with adrenaline


Just finished the rhyming and bust it and excuse the corny metaphor
I have completed the lyrics and delivered it flawlessly, apologize for the cheesy comparison


They'll never catch up to all this energy that I've mustered
Others will never be able to match the intensity and drive that I have accumulated


So God just help me out while I fight through this grievin' process
I seek strength from a higher power as I struggle through the pain of grieving


Tryna process this loss is makin' me nauseous
Attempting to comprehend and accept this loss is causing great emotional distress


But this depression ain't takin' me hostage
Although I am battling depression, it will not overpower or control me


I've been patiently watchin' this game, pacin' these hallways
I have been observing and analyzing the rap industry, waiting for my moment


You had faith in me always
You consistently believed in me and my abilities


Proof you knew I'd come out of this slump, rise from these ashes
Proof, you were confident that I would overcome my struggles and emerge stronger


Come right back on they asses, and go Mike Tyson on these bastards
I will return and show my adversaries no mercy, just like Mike Tyson in his prime


And I'm a show 'em, blow 'em out the water slaughter 'em homes
I will impress and defeat my competition with my exceptional talent


I'm on so many bells the only place they can hit me is below
I am so elevated and successful that others can only aim low when trying to attack me


Homie I know I'm, never gonna be the same with you
My life has forever changed without you in it


I woulda never came in this game, I'm going insane without you
Without your support, I would not have pursued this career and now I feel emotionally unstable


Matter of fact it was just the other night, had another dream about you
Recently, I had a dream that reminded me of you


You told me to get up, I got up and spread my wings and I flew
In the dream, you motivated me to overcome my challenges and soar to new heights


You gave me a reason to fight, I was on my way to see you
Your presence in my dream provided me with a purpose and determination, as I was headed towards you


You told me nah Doodi you're not layin' on that table I knew
You reassured me that my journey was not over, giving me the strength to keep going


I was gonna make it, soon as you said think of Hailie, I knew
When you mentioned my daughter Hailie, I realized I had to persevere and succeed for her sake


There wasn't no way that I was gonna ever leave them babies, and Proof
I could never abandon my children or disappoint Proof, who believed in me


Not many are lucky enough to have a guardian angel like you
I am fortunate to have had someone like you looking out for me


Lord I'm so thankful, please don't think I don't feel grateful, I do
I express deep gratitude to God, assuring him that I am truly appreciative


Just grant me the strength that I need, for one more day to get through
I humbly ask for the power and resilience to face each day's challenges


So homie this is your song, I dedicate this to you
This song is dedicated to you, my friend, as a way to honor and remember you


I love you Doodi
I have deep affection for you, Doodi
