(Eminem Speaking)
Most people don't see how much work is really involved
 In this rap [bad word] 
 I didn't know it
 I didn't see it
I never saw it until I was actually in it
You really gotta be in it
To understand what its like
 But you always gotta
People always gotta see your smile
You always gotta put on that fake
You know what I'm sayin
No matter what u just been through

 (B-Real)
So you wanna be a rap superstar
And live large a big house
5 cars, you're in charge [bad word] up in the world
 Don't [bad word] nobody
 Gotta look over your shoulder constantly

 (B-Real)
I remember the days when I was a young kid growin up
Lookin in the mirror dreamin about blowin up
To rock crowds make money
 Chill wit the honies
Sign autographs and whatever the people want from me
 [bad word] funny
How impossible dreams manifest in the games that [bad word] with it
Never the less you gotta go for the gusto
But you don't know about the blood sweat and tears
And losin some of your peers
And losin some of your self
Through the years past gone by
Hopefully it don't manifest for the wrong guy
Egomaniac in the brainiac
Don't know how to act
 [bad word] deep
 48 tracks
 Studio gangsta mack
Signs a deal, thinks he's gonna make a mil
 But never will
Till he crosses over still
 Feelin no hate
But [bad word] wit these
Shows the sacrifice it takes to make the G's
You wanna be a rap superstar in the biz?
And take [bad word] from people who don't know what it is
I wish it was all fun and games
But the price of fame is high
And some can't pay to play
Trapped in what you rappin about
Tell me what happened when you lost clout
The route you took started collapsing
 No fans
 No fame
 No respect
 No change
 No women
And everyone [bad word] on your name

 [bad word] 

 (Noreaga Speaking)
When you sign to a record label
You don't know you sign your life over
And these whiteboys don't care about you
Cuz the minute you fall off
They'll find another Noreaga
And they'll find another Capone-n-Noreaga
And they'll find another B-Real
So you need to just keep
 Stack your chips up
Do what you gotta do while your hot
And [bad word] get out the game
Stick to the [bad word] game
And it's even worse than the the [bad word] game
Because if someone jerks you
You can shoot em and kill me
But in this game if someone jerks you
 You gotta be humble

 (Eminem Speaking)
No matter what you just been through
 [bad word] has gotta be right
You gotta approach people
You gotta be on the up and up
And everything gotta be all good
When you see someone slap hands with em
You know what I'm sayin give em a pound
 Or whatever it is
But you always gotta act like it ain't [bad word] 

 [bad word] 

 (B-Real)
My own son don't know me
Sittin up in the hotel room lonely
But I thank God I'm wit my homies
But sometimes I wish I was back home
But only no radio or videos
Cuz they show me no love
The phony gotta hit the road slowly
So the record gets pushed by Sony
I'm in the middle like Monie
And the press say that
My own people disown me
And the best way back
Is to keep your head straight
Never inflate the cranium
Your crew worried about them honies at the Paladium
Who just wanna cling on and swing on
And so on and go on and fall off
 The hoes fall off
To the next rap superstar
Wit no shame give him a year
And they'll be right out the game
The same as the last one
 Who came before him
 Gained fame
Started gettin ignored
 I warned him
 Assured him
This ain't easy take it from Weezy
Sleezy people wanna be cheesey
 They talkin evil

 [bad word]
