I just want to shoot up and I’m pissed off. Cause I can’t find a decent vain. I’m a cross between Manson, Esham and Ozzy.
-Eminem, Still Don’t Give a Fuck

I’m bad enough to commit suicide and survive long enough to kill my soul after I’m dead.

White America, I could be one of your kids.
-Eminem, White America

When I was Underground, no one gave a fuck- I was white, no labels wanted to sign me, almost gave up. I was Like, fuck it, until I met Dre, the only one to look past, gave me a chance, and I lit a fire up.
-Eminem, White America

See the problem is, I speak to suburban kids, who otherwise would of never knew these words exist, whose mom’s probably would of never gave two squirts of piss, ’till I created so much motherfuckin’ turbulence, straight out the tube, right into your living room I came, and kids flipped when they knew I was produced by Dre, that’s all it took, and they were instantly hooked right in, and they connected with me too because I looked like them, that’s why they put my lyrics up under this microscope, searchin’ with a fine tooth comb.
-Eminem, White America

Surely hip-hop was never a problem in Harlem, only in Boston.
-Eminem, White America

So to the parents of America, I am the derringer aimed at little Erica, to attack her character, the ringleader of this circus of worthless pawns, sent to lead the march right up to the steps of congress, and piss on the lawns of the White House, to burn the casket and replace it with a parental advisory sticker, to spit liquor in the faces of in this democracy of hypocrisy, fuck you Ms. Cheney, fuck you Tipper Gore, fuck you with the freest of speech this
Divided states of embarrassment will allow me to have, fuck you! He, hahaha, I’m just playin’ America, you know I love you…

What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb. But the smartest shit I did was take the bullets out that gun.
-Eminem, Cleanin’ Out My Closet

It’s my life, I’d like to welcome ya’ll to the Eminem show.
-Eminem, Cleanin’ Out My Closet

My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn’t. ‘Till I grew up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya stomach, doesn’t it?
-Eminem, Cleanin’ Out My Closet

Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me? Well guess what, I am dead, dead to you as can be!
-Eminem, Cleanin’ Out My Closet

I love pissin’ you off, it get’s me off, like my lawyer’s, when the fuckin’ judge let’s me off.
-Eminem, Soldier

I spit it slow so these kids know that i’m talkin’ to ’em, give it back to these damn critics and sock it to em.
-Eminem, Soldier

I’m like a thug, with a little bit of Pac influence…
-Eminem, Soldier

I spit the illest shit!
-Eminem, Soldier

Lord have mercy on any more of these rappers that verse me, and put a curse on authorities in the face of adversity.
-Eminem, Soldier

If you could understand why I am the way that I am, what do I say to my fans when I tell ’em I’m…?
-Eminem, Say Goodbye Hollywood

I don’t wanna quit, but shit, I feel like this is it.
-Eminem, Say Goodbye Hollywood

All I wanted was to give Hailie the life I never had. But instead I forced us to live alienated…
-Eminem, Say Goodbye Hollywood

So the FCC wont let me be or let me be me so let me see, they tried to shut me down on MTV but it feels so empty without me.
-Eminem, Without Me

I’ve created a monster, cause nobody wants to see Marshall no more; they want Shady, I’m chopped liver. Well, if you want Shady, this is what I’ll give ya a little bit of weed mixed with some hard liquor.
-Eminem, Without Me

Little hellions kids feeling rebellious, embarrassed their parents still listen to Elvis; they start feeling like prisoners, helpless, ’til someone comes along on a mission and yells “bitch”.
