Eminem, DJ Premier - Book of Rhymes lyrics

I don't smile, I don't frown
Get too up or get too down (Nah)
I was here, so were you, you came and went
I stuck around (yeah)
Still here now, stop me how? Your opinion's
Like a broken calculator
That shit doesn't count
Shut your motherfuckin' mouth

I'm emptyin'
(I'm emptyin') my book of rhymes
(My book of rhymes) get 'em all off my pad
Every thought that I had i said I'm emptyin'
(I'm emptyin') my book of rhymes
(My book of rhymes) get 'em all off my pad
(yeah)
Every thought that I had (I'm eastside)

Haven't used all the tricks I
Have, so like my balls, i'm in my bag
(My bag) get a littlе teste when I'm mad


(I'm mad)
Sick of wrеstling this iPad (iPad)
Unsuccessfully, I might add (Might add)
And I know it's best to leave it lie
But even I get obsessed
With reading everything
And let it get the best of me 'til I snap
('Til I snap)
But I need to get off the internet
(Get off the internet)
I need to get on the mic (Get on the mic)
You need to get off the internet (Internet)
You need to get you a life
Why you waste time just to comment on shit?
(Comment on shit)
Especially shit you don't like
(Shit you don't like)
Don't like it, don't listen
But don't tell me 'bout your favorite rapper
Rippin' some shit he didn't write
(Shit he didn't write)
What happened to Slim? He was
No cap with the pen he used to rap like the
People his music was for
He was exactly like them
The dude who used to be poor
Why can't he tap into him?
Can't use that excuse anymore
He's mad at the wind, he's in a nuclear war
With a cloud, he's yellin' at it again
I talked to your mother
She told me she loved me
All she wanna do is just hold me and hug me
Wants nobody but me, she showed me the Dougie
Can I get a witness like notary public?
(Preach)
She said, "Kick some fly shit" (Fly shit)
I said, "I got wings on my ass"
(Wings on my ass)
Told her my dick's a cockpit
(Dick's a cockpit)
I fly by the seat of my pants
(Seat of my pants)
Sinful thoughts, this beat is crazy
This shit's retarded this instru's mental
(This instru's mental) to mini bars
Incidental charges
When did it start? I been cold
Hearted in this heart since kindergarten
Mental sharpness which makes Slim a
Walking dentist office, bitch
I invented flossin' yeah, I used to wonder
(I used to wonder) where my next meal's
Gonna come from (Meal's gonna come from)
Now, I just wonder
(Now I just wonder) where my next mill's
Gonna come from (Mill's gonna come from)
I cannot have no success (Have no success)
Unless when I finally make it
(Finally make it)
I get to remind all the haters
(Remind all the haters) who shitted
On me when I'm on my way up (I'm on my way)
My floor is y'all fool's ceilings
If I was you
I would step or find yourself twisted
That's how you'll wind up like spiral stairs
I will swear on a stack of Bibles
I will tear new behinds out
Of rivals, even your idols, i don't care
It's Music to Be Murdered By
So Bon Iver can swallow a
Fuckin' Ja Rule bobblehead
And die slow like Alzheimer's (Ha ha)
Lone sniper
I hold a microphone like a loaded rifle
My dome's brighter
All I spit from my skull's fire
All that's missing's a motorcycle
With the chrome wires, spoke tires
And y'all are flow biters, so I don't gotta
Explain why they call me your ghostwriter

I'm emptyin'
(I'm emptyin') my book of rhymes
(My book of rhymes) get 'em all off my pad
Every thought that I had i said I'm emptyin'
(I'm emptyin') my book of rhymes
(My book of rhymes) get 'em all off my pad
Every thought that I had (Illa)

Haven't used all the tricks I
Have, so like my balls, it's in my bag
I tend to get a little testy when I'm mad
But gift of gab and pen to
Pad turn temper tantrums into anthems
Put lips to ass and kiss the cracks
Spit your damnedest
You're still gonna hit the canvas
Rippin' rappers, veterans to whippersnappers
Mr mathers is killin' this shit
Villainous wit with scant less
Syllables rip the planet
Biblical shit's finna hit the fan
Anybody wanna go tit for tat's
Gonna get hit with that
Then the amygdala hippocampus is
Gonna trigger the ignoramus
To think of the most ridiculous
Shit to spit then
Pit it against these pitiful rappers
Insidious, these idiots wittiest shit against
Me shitty as MC Hammer's
Get your whole squad, send a task force in
If you want it
You're 'bout to get what you asked for then
Put your helmet on, strap your chin
You're 'bout to get you a crash course in
Who not to start a motherfuckin' rap war with
Or to go against
Fuck would you wanna do that for?
No offense
But are you retards slow or dense?
A fuckin' penny has more sense
Yeah, now you gotta get killed, but
It's not a big deal
But every thought is so ill
And so methodical, thought I swallowed a pill
I'm starting to feel like I'm an automobile
With Barnacle Bill inside the
Car at the wheel inside a carnival
'cause I'm plowin' into everyone
Who wrote snidey articles
And that explains why the fuck you
Clowns are all in my grill
Joy and pain, fortune, fame, torture, shame
Choice I made
Swore someday the world would pay less
To lose, more to gain, daughters raised
Yesterday, glory days, adored and praised
Ignored the hate
Addressed the fake, toured with Dre
Tore a page from Jordan came
Destroyed the game before you came
Enjoy your stay before it's gone away
But the more you claim that
You're gonna point and aim
If it joined a gang
Your shit isn't going to bang
You're just boring, lame and more of the same
You have an enormous chain
But a stormless brain
The most you can form is rain
Your shit is pointless
Same as a scoreless game
So, bitch, quit lyin'
You're denyin' like Mr porter's name (Haha)
Borderline bipolar disorder since my stroller
Eyes rollin' back in my skull like Eli Porter
Fire mortar
(Brr) rounds, Ayatollah, every iota I load up
I owe to my motor mouth
This is my note to self
Sometimes you're gonna bomb
So you just might have to blow
Yourself up with no one's help
I just wrote it down in my book of rhymes
Preemo, take us out

Writin' in my book of rhymes
My book of rhymes, my book of rhymes
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm eastside
Writin' in my book of rhymes
My book of rhymes, my book of rhymes
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
I'm eastside
