Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Yo, I’m the villain in the story that they can’t erase,
Got the ink in my veins, call it a mental chase,
I’m the one they warn about, the shadow in the maze,
Twisted like a knife, but I’m smiling through the craze.

Got a mind like a furnace, burning up the page,
Every word a bullet, every verse a cage,
They said I wouldn’t make it, now they beg for my sound,
I’m the lion in the zoo, watch me tear ‘em all down.

I’m the monster they can’t control, like a wrecking ball,
When I step on the scene, the whole building falls,
I’m chaos with a method, every line’s a disaster,
Spitting flames so hot, they’re calling me the master.

I don’t need no therapist, I’m the demon in the booth,
Got the world on tilt, and I’m living in the truth,
I’m the mask behind the madness, the voice in your head,
I’m the dream that you fear, I’m the words that you dread.

They tried to cage the beast, but the beast is too wild,
Every move I make is like I’m running from the trial,
Got these rappers shaking, they don’t know what’s next,
I’m the test that they fail, but I never second guess.

(Chorus)
I’m Slim Shady on the rise, don’t test me,
Got the world trippin’ like a loaded semi,
I’m the nightmare in your sleep, come and get me,
You can’t run from the beast, so forget me.

(Verse 2)
I’m a psychopath with a pen, call me a savage,
Got a whole catalog of madness, I wreak havoc,
I’m the devil in disguise, but I’m not here to preach,
I’m just here to show you how to kill it on the beat.

Every bar’s a bomb, every word’s an explosion,
Got the game on fire, like I’m fueling the ocean,
They said I’d never be enough, now I’m breaking the ceiling,
Shatter every dream, but they still feel the feeling.

I’m the villain with the vision, every verse is a plot,
Every line a warzone, every rhyme a shot,
I’m the villain that you love, ‘cause I speak the truth,
I’m the broken kid that you know, but can’t remove.

I’m the storm in the distance, the thunder in the sky,
Watch me rise from the ashes while they question why,
I’m the nightmare that you wake from, but can’t escape,
Every word I drop is like the closing of the gate.

(Chorus)
I’m Slim Shady on the rise, don’t test me,
Got the world trippin’ like a loaded semi,
I’m the nightmare in your sleep, come and get me,
You can’t run from the beast, so forget me.
