The Real Marshall Mathers
(A.K.A EMINEM) quotes and a few selected lyrics too. Space to post your comments below.
I don’t think I’ve ever read poetry, ever. I’m not really book-smart.
Let’s get married, bee-yitch
You don’t get another chance, Life is no Nintendo game
I feel like I’m losing control of myself.
I went in a different direction
I been shot at, never hit.
they know that I know what I’m doing
I’m tired of hearing about the white thing
Eminem quotes about life
Slim Shady might have a shady past, but it all comes with a tone of experience- his life quotes reflect exactly that.
Eminem is way more serious than you think. He
speaks carefully and crafts his next line (these become quotes) and doesn’t rush at all, slouched down on the back of the sofa the man picks his words wisely. He has no grand philosophies to offer about his unpredictable life, he doesn’t blame no one, not even his family, his country or the world. That’s why we love his quotes. Eminem doesn’t have a victim mindset, because he knows it would take him no where.
Fame hit me like a ton of bricks.
I need drama in my life to keep making music.
I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.
Why do I act like I’m all high and mighty, When inside, I’m dying, I am finally realizing I need help.
I just don’t like her as a person. I learned a lesson from it – don’t believe the hype. She doesn’t really have it all together. (Eminem speaks about Kim)
Oh sh#t. I’m very sorry about that.
Somewhere deep down there’s a decent man in me, he just can’t be found.
Do you have enemys? Good. That means you stood up for something.
I’m confident, but I’m humble.
Eminem lyric quotes
Cause some things just don’t change.
I’m as cold as a cold wind.
I can’t tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
(love the way you lie lyric)
High off on love, drunk from my hate.
You ever love somebody so much,
you could barely breathe when you with ‘em?
Baby please come back, it wasn’t you. Baby it was me.
Why do you people deserve
to know this about me?
More Slim Shady quotes
I think I’ve calmed down a bit.
It’s the new tolerant me!
Just going back to my white-trash roots.
It’s all political, if my music is literal/and I’m a criminal/how the f**k can I raise a little girl?/I couldn’t, I wouldn’t be fit to… (Eminem talks about his lyrics)
It’d be very hard to repair that relationship.
They portrayed me as a vicious, vile, evil person… But I wouldn’t have got anywhere in this business if I was just a complete a**hole.
“You gotta take the ups and downs with it. Fame has got its pros and cons. The pros would be you don’t have to ride one of these [double- decker buses] anymore. The cons would be all the craziness that comes with it. When you get rid of some of your small problems, like having bills, [and then transition] to getting to where somebody like me or Jay-Z is, you have a whole new slew of problems, like lawsuits and other things I never knew could exist.” (Eminem talking about dealing with fame)
I’ve found a peace, an inner peace.
I love the attention but I don’t like too much of it
Cause some things just don’t change.
I’m as cold as a cold wind.
I can’t tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like

I love the attention but I don’t like too much of it

I feel like a spoilt rapper.
I get to pick and choose everything.
I’m cool being single — not to say I don’t get down.
I’m not saying I will or I won’t
My Name Is…
People are so f****n’ stupid, man, to actually take my s*** that seriously. I don’t walk around and try to portray this gangster image, but the media has made me out to be that way, like I think I’m some kind of f****n’ white thug.
I wanted to be LL Cool J, I wanted to be Run, Ad-Rock, Big Daddy Kane, a lot of people.
2-Pac was at one time my favourite rapper. 2-Pac was more of a feel emcee, a feel rapper. That’s what I’m trying to do with my new shit.
I don’t think I could ever leave Detroit
No, I don’t regret any of it. (favorite Eminem quote)
if I offend anyone or whatever, I’m saying it so I’m willing to deal with it.
I leave my anger in the studio.
