[Chorus]
Oh, all around the World,
There's an echo
As he takes a bow
And they all know all the girls, the boys
They chase the noise
Through the highs and through the lows
They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo
They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo

[Royce]
Classical poems
Battle my own demons
I need a glass of Patron
Bad as I need a horn
Stabbing my clavicle bone
I'm at it or prone
First time I seen a dessert eagle
I was letting the 44 buss
The 44 pop
First time you seen one, you was eating coco puffs
Looking at Robocop
I'm not a man, I'm a logo, I'm sustain
In order to clean my things you need saline
I'm never referring to the solution
I'm talking about more like the mustang vroom
Get respect from the get-go, hello
Set to the echo, pyscho
Pen got a mind of its own, gotta write my rhymes with a timer otherwise
I'll probably vibe out to a nine minute song
As the echo follows the Maserati
As the petrol swallows,
I'm a thousand bodies away from a skeleton
Check your bible inside it, it will say this guys an elephant
I'm fly like I'm, killing the scene like I'm a villain with wings
I'll sleep when I'm 6 feet deep,
Right now I'm living a dream
Though we may be reckless
The ladies check us
They whisper Shady records
Baby echo

[Chorus]
Oh, all around the World,
There's an echo
As he takes a bow
And they all know all the girls, the boys
They chase the noise
Through the highs and through the lows
They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo
They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo

[Eminem]
I can hear them calling, calling, calling, calling, calling
I eat rappers with the rhyme, consume 'em
The only fucking thing that you consume is time
I'm super human, my world is like a Rubiks cube
Its too complex girl, you assuming, cupids looming
My mentality's caveman stupid woman
My life is Truman show, all I have is music hoe
I stopped chasing every chick under the sun many moons ago
So pretend my dick is a balloon and blow
Cause you better put a fork in it if you think I'mma lay here just spooning yo
Oh you think you the shit 'cause I just said you was beautiful
Diabolical, till the last molecule, down to my last hair follicle and cuticle
Rotten to the core, to the bunghole all the way down...
To my sock and the hair on my toe
Learn how to sew, so shut my own booty hole
Cause I ain't took no sh-t since I looked down to my nuts and saw my first pubic grow
I told these stupid hoes when I come back I'mma set this bitch on fire
And this time I mean Imma pour gasoline on some chick and light her
Cause this time muthafuckers I'm put my whole God-damn dick inside her
I ain't even put my tip in that hoe yet
I'ma go get TIP and try to rip it wider

[Chorus]
Oh, all around the World,
There's an echo
As he takes a bow
And they all know all the girls, the boys
They chase the noise
Through the highs and through the lows




They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo
They will follow the echo, echo, echo, echo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Eminem feat. Royce Da 5"9''s song "Echo" explores the idea of fame and the impact it has on one's life. The chorus speaks of an echo that follows a performer wherever they go. The girls and boys chase the noise through the highs and the lows, indicating that fame can be a double-edged sword with both good and bad aspects. Royce's verse explores his personal demons and violent tendencies, juxtaposed with a desire for success and recognition. Eminem's verse, as expected from the rapper, is full of provocative and often controversial lyrics that talk about his own fame, sexual prowess, and disregard for social norms.


The opening lines of the chorus talk about how the echo is all around the world as the performer takes a bow, indicating that fame is a global phenomenon that has a massive impact on people's lives. The idea of chasing the noise through the highs and the lows shows that fame, despite all its glamour and glitz, has its own costs, and it's not always a bed of roses. The echo represents the impact and influence of fame, which is something that follows the performer wherever they go.


Royce's verse contrasts his private struggles, such as battling internal demons, with his ambition to succeed. The lines "I'm not a man, I'm a logo, I'm sustain / In order to clean my things, you need saline" suggest that he is more than just a human being and has transformed into a symbol of success or brand. Eminem's verse is largely provocative and offensive, mocking the idea of the swooning girls that follow him, and displaying his inflated ego and sexually explicit thoughts.


Overall, "Echo" is a commentary on the idea of fame and success. It explores how the echo of success and recognition can impact an artist's life both positively and negatively. The lyrics reflect the experience of dealing with fame and the pressures that come with it.
