I Know My Name lyrics

by

Eminem


[Verse 1]
It's a long way from home here
I'm getting tired of walking
I can use a break but we're a long way from thrones here
I knew i should have planned ahead
And when i spoke my dream they said i took it too far
Well good cause i'm going there
Know what you call a man tryna make a name for himself
So selfish, tryna to take the whole rap game for himself
Can't help it
Now who the f*ck said It was cool to put wealth before health
Cause i've been away too long
Just to buy anything they could sell me
And I still can't buy time
Tryna see how many won in a life time
This moment n*gga can happen in one life time
These are thoughts i get when i ride through the city
In the night time with a nice car with the windows down
Like let the moonlight shine
Let a young n*gga shine
Shine to get the shine right
Feeling like i've been killing time waiting for when the time right
Embracing lines in my verse making sure i got my lines right
Since life never gave me lemons
I took the mic and the limelight
I got my own bed, gotta learn to respect it
I'm on a confidence high, the compliments is well effective
And Tez making these comparisons, I don't think I should mention
Cause if I said it, y'all would think I'm a hell of a rapper sent from heaven
And I don't want y'all to expect sh*t
I should name my tape unexpected
Like really f*ck all the hype I work hard imma earn my credit
Euro
[Interlude]
Yeah, Euro
I know I know my name...
Im just tryin' to make sure that you don't forget it [x2]

[Verse 2]
Along pursuit of happiness when is it happy endin?
I remember when I used to smile or when I start pretendin'
That's around the time I noticed them gunshots were rangin'
Around the same place that all of my family or friends is
So every night I spend it all like I ain't savin nothin
No self-defense man, I keep somebody to spray it for me
I know you don't love me, still I make you say it for me
Girl I'm trouble I just hope my family still prayin for me
It's crazy I used to have a good-spirit as a kid
Before I noticed the difference of bein' poor and rich
My sister just had a daughter, the baby father split
He told her lies to make her fall in love, he ain't sh*t
I blame me, I break hearts, it all makes sense
It's payback, it may be karma, I hate that b*tch
Now if my niece want somethin, I make sure she has it
I've had it, refuse to live anything less than above average
I put the city on the map, I did it all smoked up
Shots up, no cup, yeah I'm wit' it all
In the mornin' I wake up and sure that I'll forget it all
I'll do it, I'll do it, you'll probably forget who did it all
[Outro]
I know I know my name...
Im just tryin' to make sure that you don't forget it
