Eminem - River lyrics

[Hook/Chorus – Ed Sheeran] I’ve been a liar, been a thief Been a lover, been a cheat All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me A little one, I don’t want to admit to something If all it’s gonna cause is pain Truth in my lies right now Are falling like the rain, so let the river run [Verse 1 – Eminem] He’s coming home with his next grasp to catch flack Sweat jackets and dress legs, mismatch On his breast jackets is a s-x addict And cheaters want to egg sack it for being checked, get back It’s a chest match, she’s on his back like a jetpack She’s kept track of all his internet chats And guess who just so happens to be moving on to the next Actually, just s--t on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks ‘Cause she loves danger, psychopath And you don’t f--k with no man’s girl, even I know that But she’s devised some plan to stab him in the back Knife in hand, says the relationship’s hanging by a strip So she’s been on the web lately Says maybe she’ll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man And I know she’s using me to try to play him, I don’t care Hi Suzanne, but I shoulda’ said “Bye Suzanne” after the first night, but tonight I am [Hook/Chorus – Ed Sheeran] I’ve been a liar, been a thief Been a lover, been a cheat All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me A little one, I don’t want to admit to something If all it’s gonna cause is pain Truth in my lies right now Are falling like the rain, so let the river run [Verse 2 – Eminem] One night stand turned into night staying It was cold, some lights gram, y’all be hung tight and He found out, now she feels deserted and used ‘Cause he left, so what? He did inverse to her too Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we’re through? It’s hard to find the words, I’m aloof, nervous and suited When it’s too hurt but what you deserve is the truth Don’t take it personal, I just can’t say this in person to you

So I revert to the studio like Hole In The Wall diners Don’t have to be reserved in a booth I just feel like the person who I’m turning into’s Irreversible, I prayed on you like it’s church at the pew And now that I got you I don’t want you Took advantage of my thirst to pursue Why do I do this dirt that I do? Get off my soapbox and preach, my sermon in speech Detergent and bleach is burned in the womb ‘Cause now with her in the womb We can’t bring her in this, shoulda knew To use protection ‘fore I bit into your forbidden fruit F--k! [Hook/Chorus – Ed Sheeran] I’ve been a liar, been a thief Been a lover, been a cheat All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me A little one, I don’t want to admit to something If all it’s gonna cause is pain Truth in my lies right now Are falling like the rain, so let the river run [Bridge – Eminem & Ed Sheeran] My name’s “ooh”, my name’s “ooh” Denver, never run Call me “ooh”, call me “ooh” River “ooh”, we’ll let the river run [Verse 3 – Eminem] Always the bride’s maid, never “The bride, hey!” F--k can I say? If life was a highway The sequels are non-clay But be swerving in five lanes Speeds that are high, rave like I’m sliding on ice maybe That’s why I’m made, that came at you sideways I can’t keep my lies straight, what I made You terminate my baby This love triangle Left us in a wreck tangled What else can I say? It was fun for a while That I really woulda loved your smile Didn’t really wanna abort But f--k it, what’s one more lie to tell an unborn child? [Hook/Chorus – Ed Sheeran & Eminem] I’ve been a liar, been a thief Been a lover, been a cheat All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me A little one, I don’t want to admit to something “I’m sorry, I f----d up” If all it’s gonna cause is pain The truth in my lies now Are falling like the rain, so let the river run
