8 Mile歌词

[00:18.69]It's okay, it's okay. I'm gonna make it anyway
[00:23.92]
[00:29.02]Sometimes I just feel like, quitting I still might
[00:31.79]Why do I put up this fight, why do I still write
[00:34.79]Sometimes it's hard enough just dealing with real life
[00:37.36]Sometimes I wanna jump on stage and just kill mics
[00:40.10]And show these people what my level of skill's like
[00:42.67]But I'm still white, sometimes I just hate life
[00:45.38]Something ain't right, hit the brake lights
[00:47.79]Case of the stage fright, drawing a blank like
[00:50.44]Da-duh-duh-da-da, it ain't my fault
[00:53.57]Great big eye*****, my insides crawl
[00:56.40]And I clam up I just slam shut
[00:58.61]I just can't do it, my whole manhood's
[01:01.08]Just been stripped, I have just been vicked
[01:03.49]So I must then get, off the bus then split
[01:06.20]Man ***** this *****t; yo, I'm going the ***** home
[01:09.14]World on my shoulders as I run back to this 8 Mile Road
[01:12.04]I'm a man, I'mma make a new plan
[01:14.11]Time for me to just stand up, and travel new land
[01:16.79]Time to really just take matters into my own hands
[01:19.49]Once I'm over these tracks man I'mma never look back(8 Mile Road)
[01:22.48]And I'm gone, I know right where I'm going
[01:24.76]Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
[01:27.64]Ain't gonna follow the footsteps I'm making my own
[01:30.16]Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road
[01:33.44]I'm walking these train tracks, trying to regain back
[01:35.75]The spirit I had fore I go back to the same crap
[01:38.49]To the same plant, in the same pants
[01:41.20]Trying to chase rap, gotta move ASAP
[01:43.75]And get a new plan, momma's got a new man
[01:46.12]Poor little baby sister, she don't understand
[01:48.83]Sits in front of the TV, buries her nose in the pad
[01:51.54]And just colors until the crayon gets dull in her hand
[01:54.31]While she colors her big brother and mother and dad
[01:56.91]Ain't no telling what really goes on in her little head
[01:59.59]Wish I could be the daddy that neither one of us had
[02:02.22]But I keep running from something I never wanted so bad!
[02:05.13]Sometimes I get upset, cause I ain't blew up yet
[02:07.59]It's like I grew up, but I ain't grow me two nuts yet
[02:10.55]Don't gotta rep my step, don't got enough pep
[02:13.03]The pressure's too much man, I'm just trying to do what's best
[02:16.12]And I try, sit alone and I cry
[02:18.09]Yo I won't tell no lie, not a moment goes by
[02:20.81]That I don't pray to the sky, please I'm begging you God
[02:23.63]Please don't let me be pigeonholed in no regular job
[02:26.23]Yo I hope you can hear me homey wherever you are
[02:28.75]Yo I'm telling you dawg I'm bailing this trailer tomorrow
[02:31.60]Tell my mother I love her, kiss baby sister goodbye
[02:34.31]Say whenever you need me baby, I'm never too far
[02:36.94]But yo I gotta get out there, the only way I know
[02:39.82]And I'mma be back for you, the second that I blow
[02:42.61]On everything I own, I'll make it on my own
[02:45.01]Off to work I go, back to this 8 Mile Road
[02:48.08]I'm a man, gotta make a new plan
[02:50.21]Time for me to just stand up, and travel new land
[02:52.81]Time to really just take matters into my own hands
[02:55.44]Once I'm over these tracks man I'mma never look back (8 Mile Road)
[02:58.35]And I'm gone, I know right where I'm going
[03:00.77]Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
[03:03.51]Ain't gonna follow the footsteps I'm making my own
[03:06.22]Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road
[03:09.31]You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it
[03:11.54]Or see what the big deal is, why it was and it still is
[03:14.28]To be walking this borderline of Detroit city limits
[03:16.93]It's different, it's a certain significance, a certificate
[03:19.96]Of authenticity, you'd never even see
[03:22.16]But it's everything to me, it's my credibility
[03:24.82]You never seen heard smelled or met a real MC
[03:27.32]Who's incredible upon the same pedestal as me
[03:30.16]But yet I'm still unsigned, having a rough time
[03:33.04]Sit on the porch with all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
[03:36.08]Go to work and serve MCs in the lunch line
[03:38.57]But when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines go?
[03:41.48]Who must I show, to bust my flow?
[03:44.22]Where must I go? Who must I know?
[03:46.77]Or am I just another crab in the bucket?
[03:49.00]Cause I ain't having no luck with this little Rabbit so ***** it
[03:51.62]Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm starting to doubt *****t
[03:54.34]I'm feeling a little skeptical who I hang out with
[03:57.32]I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about *****t
[03:59.65]At the Salvation Army trying to salvage an outfit
[04:02.95]And it's cold, trying to travel this road
[04:04.90]Plus I feel like I'm on stuck in this battling mode
[04:08.11]My defenses are so up, but one thing I don't want
[04:10.88]Is pity from no one, the city is no fun
[04:13.76]There is no sun, and it's so dark
[04:16.30]Sometimes I feel like I'm just being pulled apart
[04:18.87]From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
[04:21.33]It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin
[04:23.82]Sometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
[04:26.78]What I'm doing I just blow, my head is a stove top
[04:30.10]I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
[04:32.10]Sometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't got
[04:35.30]But I've learned, it's time for me to U-turn
[04:37.24]Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
[04:40.02]Ain't no falling no next time I meet a new girl
[04:42.52]I can no longer play stupid or be immature
[04:45.32]I got every ingredient, all I need is the courage
[04:47.95]Like I already got the beat, all I need is the words
[04:51.20]Got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
[04:53.15]Suddenly a new burst of energy has occurred
[04:55.94]Time to show these free world leaders the 3 and a third
[04:58.65]I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
[05:01.34]Then I turn and cross over the median curb
[05:03.83]Hit the 'burbs and all you see is a blur from 8 Mile Road
[05:07.15]I'm a man, gotta make a new plan
[05:09.12]Time for me to just stand up, and travel new land
[05:11.84]Time to really just take matters into my own hands
[05:14.61]Once I'm over these tracks man I'mma never look back (8 Mile Road)
[05:17.78]And I'm gone, I know right where I'm going
[05:20.04]Sorry momma I'm grown, I must travel alone
[05:22.52]Ain't gonna follow the footsteps I'm making my own
[05:25.10]Only way that I know how to escape from this 8 Mile Road
