Never Enough
Eminem 50 Cent Lyrics

There's not much you could do or say to phase me
I'm so confident and secure in myself that your words or actions won't affect me

People think I'm a little bit crazy
Sometimes my words and actions can come off as crazy to others

I get it from all angles, even occasionaly
I face criticism and judgment from all directions, but it doesn't bother me too much

Doc Drezy'll have to step in every once in a while to save me
My mentor, Dr. Dre, sometimes has to help me think before I speak

To make me stop and think about it 'fore I just say things
I need to be more thoughtful and conscious of how my words may be perceived by others

Sometimes I forget what other people just may think
I get so caught up in my own mindset that I forget to consider how others may interpret my words and actions

A lot of rappers finally wouldn't know how to take me
Many of my peers in the rap industry don't know how to handle me or my personality

If they heard some shit, I'd lay the tape 'fore they erase me
I'm not afraid to record and release controversial material, even if it may harm my reputation

I maybe a little too fast paced and racy
My style of rapping can be very energetic and intense

Sometimes the average listener rewinds and plays me twenty times
Some people find my rap flow and lyrics so compelling that they listen to them repeatedly

'Cause I say so many rhymes, it may seem like I'm goin' too fast 'cause my mind is racing
My mind is constantly thinking of new rhymes and ideas, which can make my delivery seem rushed

And I could give a fuck what category you place me
I don't care how others label me or my music

Long as when I'm pushing up daisies and gone, As long as you place me amongst one of them greats
As long as I'm remembered as one of the greatest rappers of all time after I die, I'm happy

When I hit the heavenly gates I'll be cool beside Jay-Z
I hope to be regarded as an equal to Jay-Z, one of the most respected rappers of all time, even in the afterlife

For every single die hard fan who embraced me, I'm thankful for the talent in which God gave me, And I'm thankful for the environment that he placed me
I'm grateful for my fans, my talent, and the opportunities I've been given in my life

Believe it or not, I thank my mom for how she raised me
My upbringing, including the challenges I faced in my neighborhood, made me who I am today and I am grateful for my mother's role in that

In the neighborhood daily, they jumped and chased me
I faced a lot of adversity growing up in a rough neighborhood

It only made me what I am today, see
The challenges I faced growing up made me stronger and more resilient

Regardless of what anybody believes who hates me, You ain't gonna make or break me
I'm not concerned with the opinions of those who hate me, because they cannot truly impact my success or my life

Tryna strip me of my credibility and make me look fake, G, You're only gonna be in for a rude awakening
If someone tries to discredit me, they will soon realize the extent of my talent and ability

'Cause sooner or later you haters are all gonna face me, And when you face me with all the shit you've been saving to say to me, You had all this time to think about it, Now don't pussy out and try to wimp out, face me
Those who hate me will eventually have to confront me face-to-face, but they should not back down or hold back their thoughts because of fear or shame

'Cause I've been patiently waiting for the day That we finally meet in the same place to see
I am looking forward to facing my critics so that they can see firsthand the extent of my talent and success

My flow's untouchable now you gotta face it
My rap style is so unique and powerful that no one can match or compete with it

Uh oh, it gets worse when I go back to the basics
I am most dangerous when I stick to the fundamental skills and techniques of rap

You go say the wrong shit and get your face split
Be careful what you say about me, because it could lead to physical harm

The smell of victory, love it so much I can taste it
I am so confident in my abilities that I can literally taste my own success

My spot my talk, it blaze a direct hit, Graze it, your peace talk, save it
My words and actions are so powerful that they immediately hit their target, while your attempts to negotiate or make peace are useless

Your shit sounds dated, you're overrated
Your music is old-fashioned and overhyped, while I am a true innovator and talent

I'm obligated to study your moves then crush you motherfuckers
I am constantly observing and analyzing my competition in order to improve my own skills and come out ahead of them

If I'm the best and the worst, then God's gift is a curse
My talent and success, while amazing, can also come with downsides and negative aspects

Soldier trained to destroy, you payin' attention boy?
I am a seasoned professional in the rap game, and anyone who tries to go up against me better be ready for an intense battle

I spit shit, slick shit, so quick you miss it
I am an expert at delivering my lyrics in a rapid-fire, clever way that can be hard to keep up with

To be specific I go ballistic as hieroglyphic
My style of rapping is so complex and intricate that it is like writing in hieroglyphics

My music is a drug, press play, you ain't gotta sniff it
My music is addictive and powerful, and you can experience its effects just by listening to it

Chew it or pop it, roll a bag of the chocolate
You can consume my music in any way that works for you, whether it's intense or more laid-back

Get your high over and over, but you gotta cop it
You can keep coming back to my music and enjoying it, but you have to support it and buy it in order for it to continue

When it's hot, it's hot, Your hatin' is undeniable, stop it
When my music is at its peak, it is truly great, and anyone who hates on it is simply in denial
