Eminem - We Are Americans lyrics

Album: Straight From The Lab (2003)

[Softly Singing]
Theres an intruder in my house
He cut my phoneline, can´t dial out
I scream for police, but I doubt
they going to hear me, when I shout (heh)

[Verse1]
A couple of cocktails´ll send me to jail
Theres a couple of cops hot on my trail but this time
When I get pulled over, theres a Doberman Pincher
And a Pitbull in the seat, these pigs will get bit foolin´ wit´ me
Quit foolin´ wit´ me, bitch you are going to see
No pistol in the seat, why it always have got to be an issue when you are me
And which you are going to see in the long run, imma be the wrong one
You want to harass with this limo tinted glass flashin´ that flashlight
on my ass, where was you that last night when them assholes
Ran up on my grass, rapper slash actor, kiss the crack of my cracker slash ass
They took away my right to bare arms, what, i am sposed to fight with bare palms?
Yea right, they comin with bombs, i am comin with flare guns
We as Americans

[Chorus]
We as Americans, us as a citizen, have got to protect ourselves
Look at how shit is been, we better check ourselves
Livin up in these streets through worse & through better health
Survivin by any means; We as Americans, us as a citizen
We´re samaritans, what did we get us in
We better check ourselves, look at how shit is been
Take a look where you live
This is America & we´re Americans

[verse 2]
I ama make a few bucks, wear a cool vest
Drama hanging over my head like a voodoo hex
I coulda been next to fly over the cookoo´s nest
But you know who, with a S tattooed to my chest
But I finessed it, now I got the industry pissy
Ever since me & Dre split it 50/50 on 50
It is funny, we got a buzz spreadin quicker
Then mankin´ paper airplanes out of a twenty
F*ck money, I do not rap with dead presidents
I would rather see the president dead
It is never been said but I set precedents
And the standards & they can´t stand it
My name shoulda been bastard, the shit shoulda been plastered
On my forhead with a stamp, I shoulda been blasted
I shoulda been had a cap put in my ass
But i am too swift & fast for that, i am past it
I am too old to go & cruise Gratiot
F*ck that shit! I dun seen how fast this rap shit
Can turn into some pap pap shit that quick
Snap click, but this time I got the f*ckin au-to-ma-tic
And no one gon´ test this mind, clack click

{chorus}
We as Americans, us as a citizen, have got to protect ourselves
Look at how shit is been, we better check ourselves
Livin up in these streets through worse & through better health
Survivin by any means; We as Americans, us as a citizen
We´re samaritans, what did we get us in
We better check ourselves, look at how shit is been
Take a look where you live
This is America & we´re Americans

[Verse 3]
I got a secret if you can keep it between us
I tuck two Nina´s under my jeans, either side of my penis
Under my long johns, under my Sean Johns
One run in with the long arm of the law, i am long gone
I ama do five yeahrs, no less then that, no questions asked
What might be a good idea, that I stop right here
And quit while i am ahead, already in the red
Already got a steady infrared meant for my head
A target on my back, bigger problems than that
Bin Laden on my ass, he probably gon´ send the task
I aint gon´ even ask, they aint gon´ let me pack
They aint gon´ give me my semi but I got my ... mack

[Chorus]
We as Americans, us as a citizen, have got to protect ourselves
Look at how shit is been, we better check ourselves
Livin up in these streets through worse & through better health
Survivin by any means; We as Americans, us as a citizen
We´re samaritans, what did we get us in
We better check ourselves, look at how shit is been
Take a look where you live
This is America & we´re Americans
