Cleanin Out My Closet Lyrics - The Eminem Show - Eminem

Where's my snare? 

I have no snare on my headphones 

There you go 

Yeah 

Yo 

Yo 

Have you ever been hated or discriminated against? 

I have 

I've been protested and demonstrated against 

Picket signs for my wicked rhymes 

Look at the times 

Sick as the mind of the motherfucking kid that's behind 

All this commotion, emotions run deep as oceans explodin' 

Tempers flarin' from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin' 

Not takin' nothin' from no one, give 'em hell long as I'm breathin' 

Keep kickin' ass in the mornin' and takin' names in the evenin' 

Leavin' with a taste as sour as vinegar in their mouth 

See they can trigger me 

But they never figure me out 

Look at me now 

I betcha probably sick of me now 

Ain't you, mama? 

Imma make you look so ridiculous now

I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet 

One more time 

I said I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet

Ah 

I got some skeletons in my closet and I don't know if no one knows it 

So before they throw me inside my coffin and close it 

Imma expose it 

I'll take you back to '73 

Before I ever had a multi-platinum sellin' CD 

I was a baby 

Maybe I was just a couple of months 

My faggot father must've had his panties up in a bunch 

'Cause he split 

I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye 

No, I don't owe him a second thought 

I just fuckin' wished he would die 

I look at Hailie 

And I couldn't picture leavin' her side 

Even if I hated Kim 

I'd grit my teeth and I'd try 

To make it work with her, at least for Hailie's sake 

I maybe made some mistakes but I'm only human 

But I'm man enough to face 'em today 

What I did was stupid 

No doubt it was dumb 

But the smartest shit I did was take the bullets outta that gun 

'Cause I'd have killed 'em 

Shit, I woulda shot Kim and them both 

It's my life 

I'd like to welcome ya'll to the Eminem Show 

I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet 

One more time 

I said I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet 

Now I would never diss my own mama just to get recognition 

Take a second to listen 'fore you think this record is dissin' 

But put yourself in my position 

Just try to envision 

Witnessin' your mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen 

Bitchin' that someone's always goin' through hear purse and shit's missin' 

Goin' through public housin' systems, victim of Munchhausen's Syndrome 

My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't 

'Til I grew up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to your stomach, doesn't it? 

Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me, ma? 

So you could try to justify the way you treated me, ma? 

But guess what? 

You're gettin' older now and it's cold when you're lonely 

And Nathan's growin' up so quick he's gonna know that you're phony 

And Hailie's getting' so big now 

You should see her, she's beautiful 

But you'll never see her 

She won't even be at your funeral 

See, what hurts me the most is you won't admit you was wrong 

Bitch, do your song 

Keep tellin' yourself that you was a mom 

But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get? 

You selfish bitch 

I hope you fuckin' burn in hell for this shit 

Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me? 

Well, guess what? 

I am dead, dead to you as can be! 

I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet 

One more time 

I said I'm sorry mama 

I never meant to hurt you 

I never meant to make you cry 

But tonight 

I'm cleanin' out my closet
