Love Me
Eminem feat.50 Cent & 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

Overall Meaning

In Eminem ft 50cent's song Love Me, the lyrics talk about still grinding and hustling despite the fame and success. Eminem refers to himself as Stillmatic and explains that his poetry is deep and unique. He claims that he cannot be derailed by anyone and he is only here for business, to eat and speak his mind. The verses highlight the struggles of the entertainment industry and the need to keep working hard to maintain success. Eminem and 50 Cent talk about their love for money, guns, and alcohol but not for women, showing a misogynist attitude towards women.


In the chorus, Eminem talks about wanting to love someone for the rest of his life and hold them through the night, but this sentiment is quickly turned around as he says “I don’t love you, bitch”. This demonstrates Eminem's incapability of truly loving someone, and his rather harsh and negative approach towards women. The verses are a mix of rap, humor and satire, with references to other popular artists and their controversies.


Overall, the song's lyrics reflect the lifestyles of the rich and famous and how money can change an artist's outlook on life. It portrays a rather selfish and individualistic attitude with little regard towards women.

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

@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."
