(+) 8 Mile (From "8 Mile" Soundtrack)



Sometimes I just feel like
Quitting I still might
Why do I put up this fight?
Why do I still write?
Sometimes it's hard enough
just dealing with real life
Sometimes I want to jump
on stage and just kill mics
And show these people
what my level of skill's like
But I'm still white
Sometimes I just hate life
Something ain't right
Hit the brake lights
Case of the stage fright
Drawing a blank like
Dah, dah, dah. dah It ain't my fault
Great then I fall
My insides crawl
And I clam up
I just slam shut
I just can't do it
My whole manhood's just been stripped
I have just been ripped
So I must then get
Off the bus then split
Man fuck this shit
Yo, I'm going the fuck home
World on my shoulders as I run back
to this 8 Mile Road
I'm a man
I'm a make a new plan
Time for me to just stand up
and travel new land
Time for me to just take matters
into my own hands
Once I'm over these tracks
man I'ma never look back
And I'm gone
I know right where I'm going
Sorry, momma, I'm grown
I must travel alone
Ain't gon' follow no footsteps
I'm making my own
Only way that I know
how to escape from this 8 Mile Road
Walking these train tracks
Tryin' to regain back
The spirit I had
'fore I go back to the same crap
To the same plant
And the same pants
Tryin' to chase rap
Gotta move ASAP
Get a new plan
Momma's got a new man
Poor little baby sister
she don't understand
Sits in front of the TV
buries her nose in her pad
And just colors
until the crayon gets dull in her hand
While she colors her big brother
her mother and dad
Ain't no telling what really goes
on in her little head
Wish I could be the daddy
that neither one of us had
But I keep running from something
I never wanted so bad
Sometimes I get upset
'cause I ain't blew up yet
It's like a grew up
but I ain't grow me two nuts yet
Don't got a rep, my step
Don't got enough pep
The pressure's too much
man I'm just tryin' to do what's best
And I try
Sit alone and I cry
Yo I won't tell no lie
Not a moment goes by
That I don't pray to the sky
Please, I'm beggin' you God
Please don't let me be pigeon
holed in no regular job
Yo I hope you can hear me homie
wherever you are
Yo, I'm telling you dog
I'm bailing this trailer tomorrow
Tell my mother I love her
kiss baby sister goodbye
Say whenever you need me
baby, I'm never too far
But yo I gotta get out there
the only way I know
And I'ma be back for you
the second that I blow
On everything I own
I'll make it on my own
Off to work I go
Back to this 8 Mile Road
I'm a man
Gotta make a new plan
Time for me to just stand up
and travel new land
Time for me to just take matters
into my own hands
Once I'm over these tracks
man I'ma never look back
And I'm gone
I know right where I'm going
Sorry, momma, I'm grown
I must travel alone
Ain't gon' follow no footsteps
I'm making my own
Only way that I know how to escape
from this 8 Mile Road
You gotta live it to feel it
You didn't, you wouldn't get it
Or see what the big deal is
Why it was and it still is
To be walking this borderline
of Detroit's city limits
It's different and it's a certain significance
A certificate of authenticity
You'd never even see
But it's everything to me
It's my credibility
You'd never seen, heard
smelled or met a real mc
Who's incredible
or on the same pedestal as me
But yet still unsigned
Having a rough time
Sit on the porch with all my friends
and kick dumb rhymes
Go to work and serve MC's
in the lunch line
When it comes crunch time
Where did my punch lines go?
Who must I show?
To bust my flow
Where must I go?
Who must I know?
Or am I just another crab in the bucket
Cause I ain't having to run
with this little rabbits but fuck it
Maybe I need a new outlet
I'm starting to doubt shit
I'm feeling a little skeptical
who I hang out with
I live like a bum
yo my clothes ain't about shit
At the Salvation Army
trying to salvage an outfit
And it's cold
Trying to travel this road
Plus I feel like I'm always stuck
in this battling mode
My defenses are so up
The one thing I don't want
Is pity from no one
This city is no fun
There is no sun
And it's so dark
Sometimes I just feel like
I'm being pulled apart
From each one of my limbs
By each one of my friends
It's enough to just make me want
to jump out of my skin
Sometimes I feel like a robot
Sometimes I just know not
What I'm doing, I just blow
my head is a stove top
I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
Sometimes my mouth
just overloads the ass that I don't got
But I've learned
It's time for me to u-turn
Yo it only takes one time
for me to get burned
Ain't no fallin' on next time
I'll meet a new girl
I can not only play stupid or be immature
I got every ingredient
all I need is the courage
Like I already got the beat
all I need is the words
Got the urge
Suddenly it's a surge
Suddenly a new burst
of energy has occurred
Time to show these free world
leaders the three and a third
I am no longer scared now
I'm free as a bird
Then I turn and cross over
the median curb
Hit the burbs and all you see is a blur
I'm Eight Mile Road
I'm a man
Gotta make a new plan
Time for me to just stand up
and travel new land
Time for me to just take matters
into my own hands
Once I'm over these tracks
man I'ma never look back
And I'm gone
I know right where I'm going
Sorry, momma, I'm grown
I must travel alone
Ain't gon' follow no footsteps
I'm making my own
Only way that I know how to escape
from this 8 Mile Road
