The Way I Am - Straight Up[00:00:00]
Dre just let it run[00:00:12]
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit[00:00:15]
Aiyyo this song is for anyone f**k it[00:00:17]
Just shut up and listen aiyyo[00:00:24]
I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag[00:00:28]
Of this w**d it gives me the sh*t needed to be[00:00:31]
The most meanest MC on this -- on this Earth[00:00:33]
And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse[00:00:36]
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre sh*t that works[00:00:39]
And it sells and it helps in it'self to relieve[00:00:41]
All this tension dispensin these sentences[00:00:44]
Gettin this stress that's been eatin me recently off of this chest[00:00:46]
And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)[00:00:51]
But at least have the decency in you[00:00:53]
To leave me alone when you freaks see me out[00:00:55]
In the streets when I'm eatin or feedin my daughter[00:00:58]
To not come and speak to me (speak to me)[00:01:01]
I don't know you and no[00:01:03]
I don't owe you a mo-therf**k-in thing[00:01:05]
I'm not Mr N'Sync I'm not what your friends think[00:01:07]
I'm not Mr Friendly I can be a prick[00:01:09]
If you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)[00:01:12]
No patience is in me and if you offend me[00:01:15]
I'm liftin you 10 feet (liftin you 10 feet) in the air[00:01:18]
I don't care who is there and who saw me destroy you[00:01:20]
Go call you a lawyer file you a lawsuit[00:01:23]
I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe[00:01:26]
I'm tired of all you (of all you)[00:01:28]
I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me[00:01:31]
And I am whatever you say I am[00:01:34]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:01:37]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:01:39]
Radio won't even play my jam[00:01:43]
Cause I am whatever you say I am[00:01:45]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:01:48]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:01:50]
I don't know it's just the way I am[00:01:53]
Sometimes I just feel like my father I hate to be bothered[00:01:56]
With all of this nonsense it's constant[00:01:59]
And Oh it's his lyrical content -[00:02:01]
- the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses[00:02:04]
And all of this controversy circles me[00:02:07]
And it seems like the media immediately[00:02:09]
Points a finger at me (finger at me)[00:02:12]
So I point one back at 'em but not the index or pinkie[00:02:15]
Or the ring or the thumb it's the one you put up[00:02:18]
When you don't give a f**k when you won't just put up[00:02:20]
With the b******t they pull cause they full of sh*t too[00:02:23]
When a dude's gettin bullied and shoots up his school[00:02:26]
And they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn) and the heroin[00:02:29]
Where were the parents at And look where it's at[00:02:32]
Middle America now it's a tragedy[00:02:35]
Now it's so sad to see an upper class ci-ty[00:02:37]
Havin this happenin (this happenin)[00:02:40]
Then attack Eminem cause I rap this way (rap this way)[00:02:42]
But I'm glad cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire[00:02:45]
To burn and it's burnin and I have returned[00:02:48]
And I am whatever you say I am[00:02:51]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:02:54]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:02:56]
Radio won't even play my jam[00:03:00]
Cause I am whatever you say I am[00:03:02]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:03:05]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:03:07]
I don't know it's just the way I am[00:03:11]
I'm so sick and tired of bein admired[00:03:13]
That I wish that I would just die or get fired[00:03:15]
And dropped from my label and stop with the fables[00:03:18]
I'm not gonna be able to top on My Name is[00:03:21]
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation[00:03:24]
To cop me rotation at rock'n'roll stations[00:03:26]
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)[00:03:29]
To deal with these cocky caucasians who think[00:03:32]
I'm some wigger who just tries to be black cause I talk[00:03:35]
With an accent and grab on my balls so they always keep askin[00:03:37]
The same f**kin questions (f**kin questions)[00:03:41]
What school did I go to what hood I grew up in[00:03:43]
The why the who what when the where and the how[00:03:46]
'Til I'm grabbin my hair and I'm tearin it out[00:03:48]
Cause they drivin me crazy (drivin me crazy) I can't take it[00:03:51]
I'm racin I'm pacin I stand and I sit[00:03:54]
And I'm thankful for ev-ery fan that I get[00:03:57]
But I can't take a SH*T in the bathroom[00:03:59]
Without someone standin by it[00:04:02]
No I won't sign your autograph[00:04:03]
You can call me an asshole I'm glad[00:04:06]
And I am whatever you say I am[00:04:08]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:04:10]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:04:13]
Radio won't even play my jam[00:04:17]
Cause I am whatever you say I am[00:04:19]
If I wasn't then why would I say I am[00:04:21]
In the paper the news everyday I am[00:04:24]
I don't know it's just the way I am[00:04:27]
