Eminem - White America lyrics

Album: The Eminem Show (2003)

America
We love you
How many people are proud to be citizens
of this beautiful country of ours?
The stripes & the stars for the rights that men have died for to protect.
The women & men who´ve broke their necks for the freedem of speech
the United States Government has sworn to uphold
or so we´re told
(Yo, I want everyone to listen to the words of this song)

I never would´ve dreamed in a million yeahrs id see
so many mutha f*ckin people who feel like me
Who share the same views
And the same exact beliefs
Its like a f*ckin army marchin in back of me
So many lives i touch,
So much anger aimed at no particular direction
Just sprays & sprays
Straight through your radio waves
It plays & plays
Until it stays stuck in your head
For days & days
who woulda thought standin in this mirror
Bleachin my hair wit some Peroxide
Reachin for a T shirt to wear
That i´d catapult to the floor from a rap like this
How could I predict my words would´ve an impact like this
I must´ve struck a chord wit somebody up in the office
Cuz congress keeps tellin me
I ain´t causin nuttin but problems
And now they sayin im in trouble wit the government
Im lovin it
I shovelled shit all my life
And now dumping it in it on

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

Look at these eyes baby blue baby just like urself
If they were brown
Shady lose Shady sits on the shelf
But Shadys cute
Shady knew
Shady´s dimples would help
Make ladies swoon baby
(ooo baby)

Look at myself
Lets do the math,
If i was black i´da sold half
I ain´t have to graduate
From Lincoln High School to know that
But i can rap so f*ck school
Im too cool to go back
Gimme the mic
Show me where the f*ckin studio´s at
When i was underground
No one gave a f*ck i was white
No lables wanted to sign me
Almost gave up, i was like F*ck it
Till I met Dre
The only one who looked past
Gave me a chance
And i lit a fire up under his ass
Helped him get back to the top
Every fan black that i got
Was probably his
In exchange for every white fan that he has got
Like damn we just swapped
Sittin back lookin at shit, wow.
Im like My skin, is it startin to work to my benefit now?

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

See the problem is i speak to suburban kids
Who otherwise
Woulda never knew these words exist
whose moms probably woulda never gave 2 squirts of piss
Until i created so much mutha f*ckin turbulence
Straight out the tube right into ya livin rooms i came
And kids Flipped
When they knew i was produced by Dre
Thats all it took
And they were instantly hooked right in
And they connected wit me too because i looked like them
Thats why they put my lyrics up under this microscope
Searchin with a fine tooth comb
Its like this rope waitin to choke
Tightenin around my throat
Watchin me while i write this like I dont like yes no
All i hear is:
Lyrics lyrics constant controversy
Sponsors workin round the clock
To try to stop my concerts early
Surely hip hop was never a problem
In Harlem only in Boston
After it bothered the fathers
of daughters startin to blossom
so now im catchin the flack from these activists
When they raggin
Actin like im the first rapper to smack a bitch or say fagget
Shit, Just look at me like im your closest pal
the poster child
the mutha f*ckin spokesman now for

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

WHITE AMERICA
I could be one of ur kids
WHITE AMERICA
little eric looks just like this
WHITE AMERICA
Erica loves my shit
I go to TRL
Look how many hugs i get

So to the parents of America
I´m the derringer aimed at little Erica
To attack her character of
The ring leader of the circus of worthless porns
Sent to lead the march right up to the steps of Congress
And piss on the lawns of the whitehouse
and to burn the casket & replace it with a parental advisory sticker
To spit liquor in the faces of this democracy of hypocrisy
F*ck you Ms Cheney!
F*ck you Tipper Gore!
F*ck you with the freedom of speech this divided state
of embarassment will allow me to have,
F*ck You !

Ha Ha Ha
I am just playin America, you know i love you
