You're going to be okay, kid. You're going to be okay
[Hook: Claret Jai]
Is everything not enough?
What more can I give up?
Is there anyone that I can trust?
I give you my all and you still take from me
[Verse 1: Royce da 5'9"]
Uh
Always been the type of dude that'll feed my clique
I know that without the fans, I ain't sh**
But y'all better read my lips; I don't spit raps this I'll
For you to just hack and steal and leak my sh**, so peep my drift
I hope y'all don't think y'all helping me out with that sh**
That sh**'s stressin' me out
Nickel nine is blowin' up
Christmas time, you should hang my album on top of your fireplace
Cause around that time, my stocking is goin' up
Feels like a victory, bittersweet
Cause the bigger I get, the bigger the wedge
Between the relationship of me and my bigger bro
Hear what I said?
Feels like the sh** was wished on me
Everything I do for the n***a, and the n***a know
I would do anything for him,
But the n***a refuse to quit just straight sh**tin' on me
Keepin' your distance? Probably best
If you don't wanna f** with me
But you know me probably best, f** pity
You want that? You know it's Laila Ali's chest: Tough titty!
The problems, you got a problem, you think that I'm already set
So I'm a look down on you? Just be proud of me, you already got my respect
I ain't tryina say something I regret, so I'm a just stop, chasing the pain
Let you deal with the fact we don't get along
Cause I got a big face in the game
Sometimes I feel like "f** my life, " I f** with a few n***as
That I know that If my chick was a shady ho,
n***as wouldn't think twice 'fore they f** my wife
Guess that's the difference in friends and a**ociates,
I done been broke, I done been through the motions
I don't pay no attention to birds,
I use my scope and I tend to the vultures
No one ever blows up your phone just to talk,
I don't make money just to loan it to y'all
Tell a n***a that the new album is like
Dialing and then talking to a hole in the wall
Please look at these expenses, these n***as expensive
If I gotta lend you money every time I see you
Just to be your friend, b**h, I don't really need your friendship.

[Bridge: Claret Jai]
I give, and I give
And you take, and you take
And you just walk away without nothing to say, you just take from me
You just take from me
[Verse 2: Eminem]
I live in a bubble, I struggle with the fame
Trouble as the pain grows double; give a f** what you say
When my music you take so subtle, just to give it away
To people who don't even appreciate flows, mothaf**a, I'm livid today
Cause I break my back to give you my art, you steal my thoughts
It's like driving a spike through my heart
You might not think it's that big of a deal to steal from me
But music is all I got
Aside from my daughters, not to sound like a martyr
But it's getting harder than I thought
To not just go crazy, trapped in this house, I'm about to just snap
Am I not deserving of what I got, did I not work for it?
Put it all in every record that I record
Well then please tell me why on this Earth
Lord does it keep happening, I keep rapping
But I wonder sometimes is it worth all the bullsh**
Cause it feels like a down, there ain't no gettin up from
But I won't let it get me down, I won't succumb
I'm anything but glum, so f** 'em!
They'll appreciate me when I'm gone; they'll say it was I'll, right?
The way I k** mics? But the way I feel right now
It just feels like I'm so done with this sh** I might as well wipe
I have nothing else to give you, nothing left to contribute
Farewell I bid you, but before I go, my last gift to you
Ladies and gentlemen, Slaughterhouse I give you!
[Hook]
