I could've started this off cliche like "Dear Slim" But I'm not as crazy as that, I'm nowhere near him I'm not gon' dump my girlfriend in the back of the car Cause I'm 'Space Bound', you taught me to shoot for the stars 'Rap God' was the song that got me on your trail 2013, my life was switched, my first attempt was failed I spent a whole day memorising the verses I learnt the speed first and just constantly rehearsed it 'Til I got it near perfect and learnt more of your songs Waited for 'Shady XV' to drop some more of your songs A disc of new songs and a disc of old ones Got me into others with 'Ya'll Ready Know' and 'Pop The Trunk' And I was gone, no turning back, Shady Records for life By that time I'd picked up the pen and began to write 'Kings Never Die' I heard it the night it came out 2015, by then I'd also heard about 'Infinite', 'SS' and 'MM' LP's To 'Eminem Show', 'Encore', 'Relapse', 'Recovery' The 'Bad Meets Evil' reunion and 'Welcome To Our House' And scanned through Yelawolf's 'Love Story' when it came out I had 'Best Friend' on repeat for a good 2 months or so It was the only song I'd listen to, a million times in a row And then you introduced me to Tech N9ne and Krizz When you collaborated on 'Speedom', now I'm repping DIBKIS Do It Big, Keep It Strange, Strange Music, the snake and the bat It's 2019 and your labels are still the homes of rap I'm not gon' mention every Tech album he's released to date Cause that's all the way from '99 to today This year I went and saw you live in Brisbane, Australia Knew every word to every song even the guest artists that played with ya But Boogie's solo act was hard to keep up with Now 'Everything's For Sale' is something I'm still bumping Much love Now let's go back a few years to 2017 The hype's on for 'Revival' that's coming soon it seems December 15, 'River' was on the radio 'Walk On Water' was the only song that I playing though 'Til I listened to it all, different elements of you 'Castle' and 'Arose' aimed at your daughters and Proof 'Framed' was aimed at the Slim Shady audience 'Believe' and 'Chloraseptic' were remarkable songs, but I must admit The only song I didn't like first listen was 'Heat' But with the album on repeat it really grew on me The 2 Chainz remix answered questions the comments "Beyonce isn't an Eminem standard artist" I loved 'Revival' but 'Kamikaze' destroyed the industry No more wack 'lil' rappers that my generation's listening To, and Em I thank you You've changed my life view And helped me right through My one goal is to be up in that Shady Records office Signing the contract to become official Shady Records profit I'm a prophet But my skills aren't developed to their full potential yet A couple more years and I'll be better I bet Much love This is my attempt at getting people to listen to me Slim, this rhyme is meant for getting me on your record dealing Beats and rhymes defend themselves and steam blows up literally Simplify the rhythm and just leave for I've lit up the beat Let ya light ya head up as I kill all you figuratively Rhythms shine like rays that play with people's sight visually This is fire and my plans ain't see through, I hit hard with these Spitting rhymes that bend and then I need more to finish the scheme Listen guys, I'm venting with my evil pen lyrically Criticise a man and then tell people he's dissing emcees Wish I'd write like Eminem cause he's always ripping the beat Critics spite my sentences but teachers say different things Think of my pen blending them with lethal ink, split arteries Slinging lines at tendons and veins leaving em dripping with ink Reaching my goals and I'll never redo it, this is for me Spit like idols and I'm hell like 'Evil' but in the new scene
