[Intro: Eminem]
(Yo, left, yo, left) ‘Cause sometimes you just feel tired
(Yo, left, right, left) Feel weak, and when you feel weak
(Yo, left, yo, left) You feel like you wanna just give up
(Yo, left, right, left) But you gotta search within you
(Yo, left, yo, left) Try to find that inner strength and just pull that shit out of you
(Yo, left, right, left) And get that motivation to not give up
(Yo, left, yo, left) And not be a quitter
(Yo, left, right, left) No matter how bad1 you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse
[Verse 1: Eminem]
‘Til I collapse, I’m spillin’ these raps long as you feel ‘em
’Til the day that I drop, you’ll never say that I’m not killin’ ‘em
’Cause when I am not, then I’ma stop pennin’ ‘em
pen: to write
He penned a letter to the local paper.
他给当地报纸写了一封信。
And I am not hip-hop and I’m just not Eminem
Subliminal thoughts, when I’ma stop sendin’ ‘em?
Women are caught in webs, spin ‘em and hock venom
“Hock” is an informal verb that means to forcefully spit out something, such as phlegm or tobacco. For example, you might “hock a loogie”. “Hock” is a variant of the word “hawk”, which has a similar meaning.
”Hock” can also mean to pawn something, or to sell something that you plan to buy back later. For example, you might “hock your wedding ring”. “In hock” means something is in the possession of a pawnbroker, or that something is in debt.
Adrenaline shots of penicillin could not get the illin’ to stop
Amoxicillin’s just not real enough
The criminal, cop-killin’, hip-hop villain
A minimal swap to cop millions of Pac listeners
to get (something desirable)得到，搞到（想要的东西）
I managed to cop an invitation.
我设法搞到一张请柬。

You’re comin’ with me, feel it or not
You’re gonna fear it like I showed ya the spirit of God lives in us
You hear it a lot, lyrics to shock
Is it a miracle or am I just product of pop2 fizzin’ up?
Fa’ shizzle, my wizzle, this is the plot, listen up
You bizzles forgot, Slizzle does not give a fuck
Slim (Shady) Slizzle
Bitches Bizzles
[Chorus: Nate Dogg & Eminem]
‘Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out
’Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth
’Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse
’Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out (‘Til the roof, until the roof)
‘Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth (The roof comes off, the roof comes off)
‘Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps (‘Til my legs, until my legs)
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse (Give out from underneath me)
[Verse 2: Eminem]
Music is like magic, there’s a certain feelin’ you get
When you real and you spit, and people are feelin’ your shit
This is your moment, and every single minute you spend
Tryna hold on to it, ‘cause you may never get it again
So while you’re in it, try to get as much shit as you can
And when your run is over, just admit when it’s at its end
’Cause I’m at the end of my wits with half the shit that gets in
be at your wit’s end
to be so worried by a problem that you do not know what to do next; to be so worried, confused, or annoyed that you do not know what to do next: 智穷计尽；全然不知所措
I’m at my wits’ end. I don’t know how to help him.
I got a list, here’s the order of my list that it’s in
It goes: Reggie, JAY-Z, 2Pac and Biggie
André from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then me
But in this industry I’m the cause of a lot of envy
So when I’m not put on this list, the shit does not offend me
That’s why you see me walk around like nothing’s botherin’ me
Even though half you people got a fuckin’ problem with me
You hate it, but you know respect you got to give me
The press’s wet dream, like Bobby and Whitney—Nate, hit me!
[Chorus: Nate Dogg & Eminem]
‘Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out
’Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth
’Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse
’Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out (‘Til the roof, until the roof)
‘Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth (The roof comes off, the roof comes off)
‘Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps (‘Til my legs, until my legs)
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse (Give out from underneath me)
[Verse 3: Eminem]
Soon as a verse starts, I eat at an MC’s heart
What is he thinking? How not to go against me, smart
And it’s absurd how people hang on every word
I’ll prob’ly never get the props I feel I ever deserve
Props here means ‘proper respect or recognition’.
But I’ll never be served, my spot is forever reserved
If I ever leave Earth, that would be the death of me first
’Cause in my heart of hearts I know nothin’ could ever be worse
That’s why I’m clever when I put together every verse
My thoughts are sporadic, I act like I’m an addict
I rap like I’m addicted to smack like I’m Kim Mathers
But I don’t wanna go forth and back in constant battles
The fact is I would rather sit back and bomb some rappers
So this is like a full-blown attack I’m launchin’ at ‘em
The track is on some battlin’ raps, who wants some static3?
‘Cause I don’t really think that the fact that I’m Slim matters
A plaque and platinum status is wack if I’m not the baddest, so
[Chorus: Nate Dogg & Eminem]
‘Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out
’Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth
’Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse
’Til the roof comes off, ‘til the lights go out (‘Til the roof, until the roof)
‘Til my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth (The roof comes off, the roof comes off)
‘Til the smoke clears out, am I high? Perhaps (‘Til my legs, until my legs)
I’ma rip this shit ‘til my bones collapse (Give out from underneath me)
[Outro: Eminem, Nate Dogg & Eminem & Nate Dogg]
Until the roof, until the roof
The roof comes off, the roof comes off
Until my legs, until my legs
Give out from underneath me, I
I will not fall, I will stand tall
Feels like no one can beat me
