Eminem

But I still rap like I'm on my Pharoahe Monch grind.

No more cutting grams, and wrapping grands up in rubber-bands, _x000D_ _x000D_ I'm a recovered man, our plans ta discover other lands, _x000D_ _x000D_ suburban places got me seeking for an oasis, cristal by the cases, ladies of all races with dime faces, sex on the white sand beaches of Saint Thomas, though this ain't promised,_x000D_ _x000D_ I'm as determined as them old timers.

Sometimes I'm real cool, but sometimes I could be a real asshole. I think everyone is like that.

I was poor white trash, no glitter, no glamour, but I'm not ashamed of anything.

I always say this about my music, and music in general: Music is like a time capsule. Each album reflects what I'm going through or what's going on in my life at that moment.

As for my stuff, I'm just doing guest verses for other people's records. I try to stay recording, because if I don't, I get rusty.

If people take anything from my music, it should be motivation to know that anything is possible as long as you keep working at it and don't back down.

Sporadic thoughts will pop into my head and I'll have to go write something down, and the next thing you know, I've written a whole song in an hour.

My only scheme was to be a rapper.

Throughout my career, I fed off the fuel of people not being able to understand me.

I realized, 'Yo, I can't do anything in moderation. I don't know how.'

Certainly I'm not going to sit on the Internet all day and read what Sam from Iowa is saying about me. But I'm a sponge. I've always been a sponge.

Hip-hop is ever changing but you'll always have the pack. And you'll always have those people who are separated from the pack.

I didn't have nothin' going for me... school, home... until I found something I loved, which was music, and that changed everything.

I am whatever you say I am; if I wasn't, then why would you say I am.

I am who I am and I say what I think. I'm not putting a face on for the record.

If you get offended by my music, don't listen to it.

Believe it or not, I thank my mom for how she raised me in a neighborhood daily to jump and chase me. It only made me what I am today.

You ever love somebody so much_x000D_ You can barely breathe_x000D_ When you’re with them
