Best Friend Songtext
von Eminem

Ain′t never been much of the church type
But I believe in the last days
I walk through hell almost every night
But I believe it's a pathway
Say boy, what you doin′ with your life
With those tattoos on your face?
Say boy, you know that you'll pay the price
Well, I guess I'll see when I head that way

To The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
I hold you nearest
My best friend, best friend
Let the trumpets blow with your appearance
I can almost hear it

My best friend, best friend
When you wish me hell upon my soul and spirit
Behold these lyrics
I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah, I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah


I don′t know much about Holy Bibles
But I grew up in the Bible Belt
I put my love for a woman on idle
Because I got beat with my mama′s belt
But I learned from my mistakes
Try hard to respect people for what they believing in
But if you spit on my fucking grave
And wish me hell, then I wish you well
I'ma send you straight up to my best friend

To The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
I hold you nearest
My best friend, best friend
Let the trumpets blow with your appearance
I can almost hear it

My best friend, best friend
When you wish me hell upon my soul and spirit
Behold these lyrics
I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah, I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah


God, please would you arm me with the armor
To calm me when there′s drama like Gandhi?
Could have gone the other way, many times
Could have turned Dalai with the llama, but I squashed my beefs
And things seem to be looking decent
Recently, but don't jinx it
It′s like Clint Eastwood looking for peace though
Maybe not finna enter the priesthood
But at least should make an attempt
To show some remorse and to be some sort of a repenter

For the people, I've been a menace to
Not a preacher but a shit starter and finisher
Enter the mind of a thick skin, but a short temper
This patience of mine is thinner
Than twine is when I get attacked
So I might say something back that might offend you
So if you don′t like when I rap or
What I have to say on the mic, then you
Might wanna act just like quarterbacks
And take a fuckin' hike when I snap 'cause I′m a sinner

And I (I got a best friend, best friend)
Plus balls and intestines
And they never been yes, men
They gon′ tell me when I'm fuckin′ up
The minute I'm ever givin′ it less than
I'm about to vomit, and I can feel it comin′
'Cause failure's somethin′ I can barely stomach
And I only listen to my gut
So unless you′re my fuckin' belly button, don′t tell me nothin'
You ain′t my (best friend, best friend)

Who you think I'm talkin′ 'bout?
Lifts me up when I'm down and out
Still look to him without a doubt
Still got a (best friend, best friend)
Shout it out, like there′s never been a louder mouth
Should have never been allowed a mouth
Now that I got a higher power
Now when I black out, power outage (oww!)
They powerless, but they crowd around
They tend to flock like shepherds

The black sheep, but I′ll be the worst thing
That these motherfuckers ever heard when I'm counted out
You′ll be D-O-A, they'll announce
But pronounce you dead when they sound it out
So prepare for a rival, your arch enemy surrounds you now
He′s all around you (blaow!)
Not even the doctors at the hospital
Are gonna shiggy-shock you back to life
It's im-piggy-possible to revive you
That′s word to the Diggy Doc

Stiggy-stoppin' is not an option, somethin' I′m not gonna do
I′m the Iggy Pop of hip-hop when I walk in the booth
Dawg, I'm the truth, like Biggie rockin′ with 2Pac in a suit
Talkin' to Proof droppin′ a deuce
Fill up a syllable clip like a refillable script, cock it and shoot
And who you think's my Glock that I use?
That I pull from to get my strength up against these haters
And he′ll be waitin' at the gate when you get sprayed up
Sendin' you hoes straight up to deal with my (best friend)

To The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
I hold you nearest
My best friend, best friend
Let the trumpets blow with your appearance
I can almost hear it

My best friend, best friend
When you wish me hell upon my soul and spirit
Behold these lyrics
I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah, I got a best friend, best friend
Yeah
