Eminem – Drug Ballad Ft Dina Rae Lyrics

Album on The Marshall Mathers LP

[Intro: Eminem & Dina Rae]
Yeah, hahahaha
Whoo, shit
Mmm
Oh, oh, mmm
Ehh, ehh
Aight, guess what? I ain’t comin’ in yet
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh
I’ll come in a minute
Ayo, this is my love song, it goes like this
Hey, yeah

[Verse 1: Eminem]
Back when Mark Wahlberg was Marky Mark (Fuckin’ faggot)
This is how we used to make the party start
We used to mix Hen with Bacardi Dark
And when it kicks in you can hardly talk
And by the sixth gin you’re gon’ probably crawl
And you’ll be sick then and you’ll probably barf
And my prediction is you’re gon’ probably fall
Either somewhere in the lobby or the hallway wall
And everything’s spinnin’, you’re beginnin’ to think women
Are swimmin’ in pink linen again in the sink, then in
A couple of minutes that bottle of Guinness is finished
You are now allowed to officially slap bitches
You have the right to remain violent and start wilin’
Start a fight with the same guy that was smart-eyein’ you
Get in your car, start it, and start drivin’
Over the island and cause a 42-car pile-up
Earth calling, pilot to co-pilot
Looking for life on this planet, sir, no sign of it
All I can see is a bunch of smoke flyin’
And I’m so high that I might die if I go by it
Let me outta this place, I’m outta place
I’m in outer space, I’ve just vanished without a trace
I’m going to a pretty place now where the flowers grow
I’ll be back in an hour or so

[Chorus: Eminem & Dina Rae]
‘Cause every time I go to try to leave (Whoa)
Something keeps pullin’ on my sleeve (Whoa)
I don’t wanna, but I gotta stay (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)
‘Cause every time I try to tell ’em “no” (No)
They won’t let me ever let ’em go (Go)
I’m a sucker all I gotta say (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)

[Verse 2: Eminem]
In third grade, all I used to do
Was sniff glue through a tube and play Rubik’s Cube
Seventeen years later I’m as rude as Jude
Schemin’ on the first chick with the hugest boobs
I’ve got no game, and every face looks the same
They’ve got no name, so I don’t need game to play
I just say whatever I want to whoever I want
Whenever I want, wherever I want, however I want
However, I do show some respect to few
This ecstasy’s got me standin’ next to you
Gettin’ sentimental as fuck, spillin’ guts to you
We just met, but I think I’m in love with you
But you’re on it too, so you tell me you love me too
Wake up in the morning like, “Yo, what the fuck we’d do?”
I gotta go, bitch, you know I got stuff to do
‘Cause if I get caught cheatin’, then I’m stuck with you
But in the long run, these drugs are probably
Gonna catch up sooner or later, but fuck it, I’m on one
So let’s enjoy, let the X destroy your spinal cord
So it’s not a straight line no more
‘Til we walk around lookin’ like some wind-up dolls
Shit’s stickin’ out of our backs like a dinosaur
Shit, six hits won’t even get me high no more
So bye for now, I’m gonna try to find some more
[Chorus: Eminem & Dina Rae]
‘Cause every time I go to try to leave (Whoa)
Something keeps pullin’ on my sleeve (Whoa)
I don’t wanna, but I gotta stay (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)
‘Cause every time I try to tell ’em “no” (No)
They won’t let me ever let ’em go (Go)
I’m a sucker all I gotta say (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)

[Verse 3: Eminem]
That’s the sound of a bottle when it’s hollow
When you swallow it all wallow and drown in your sorrow
And tomorrow you’re probably gonna wanna do it again
What’s a little spinal fluid between you and a friend?
Screw it! And what’s a little bit of alcohol poisonin’?
And what’s a little fight? Tomorrow, you’ll be boys again
It’s your life, live it however you wanna
Mari-ju-ana is everywhere, where was you brought up?
It don’t matter as long as you get where you’re goin’
‘Cause none of this shit’s gonna mean shit where we’re goin’
They tell you to stop, but you just sit there ignorin’
Even though you wake up feelin’ like shit every mornin’
But you’re young, you’ve got a lot of drugs to do
Girls to screw, parties to crash, sucks to be you
If I could take it all back now, I wouldn’t
I would have did more shit that people said that I shouldn’t
But I’m all grown up now and upgraded
And graduated to better drugs and updated
But I still got a lotta growing up to do
I still got a whole lotta throwing up to spew
But when it’s all said and done, I’ll be forty
Before I know it with a 40 on the porch tellin’ stories
With a bottle of Jack, two grandkids in my lap
Babysittin’ for Hailie while Hailie’s out gettin’ smashed
[Chorus: Eminem & Dina Rae]
‘Cause every time I go to try to leave (Whoa)
Something keeps pullin’ on my sleeve (Whoa)
I don’t wanna, but I gotta stay (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)
‘Cause every time I try to tell ’em “no” (No)
They won’t let me ever let ’em go (Go)
I’m a sucker all I gotta say (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)

[Chorus: Eminem & Dina Rae]
‘Cause every time I go to try to leave (Whoa)
Something keeps pullin’ on my sleeve (Whoa)
I don’t wanna, but I gotta stay (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)
‘Cause every time I try to tell ’em “no” (No)
They won’t let me ever let ’em go (Go)
I’m a sucker all I gotta say (Whoa)
These drugs really got a hold of me (Whoa)

[Outro: Eminem]
Drugs really got a hold of me
Really got a hold of me
These drugs really got a hold of me
They really got a hold of me
