is Stimulate Eminem's most underrated song?

[patriots 18 1]

I mean really...

Psst..
Hey, Listen

I love my job
It makes me feel like... superman
Can you fly?
I can
Wanna see?

[Chorus]
I'm only entertaining you
My goal is to stimulate making you high
And take you and I, to a place that you can't see
But I believe you can fly
I don't mean nobody harm, I'm just partying
I'm not your dad, not your mom, not your guardian
Just a man who's on the mic, so let me... entertain you

[Verse 1]
My lyrical content is constantly under fire
No wonder why I constantly bomb back
To combat attacks with constant concepts
From lyrics constantly took out of context
Failure to communicate with congress HAS
Been a problem for the longest I guess but
Maybe one day we can make some progress
Food for thought see how long it takes to digest
Feeling good when I should be ashamed
%@%$, I really should've fell but I stood
See I came like a flame in the night
Like a ghost in the dark, there's a ray, there's a light
There's a hope there's a spark
But when planets collide, they'll never see eye to eye
Until they decide to set the differences aside
And this is why only one of us will survive
So children, follow my lead and feel the vibe because

[Chorus x1]

[Verse 2]
My music can be slightly amusing
You shouldn't take lyrics so serious
It might be confusing
Trying to seperate the truth from entertainment
It's stupid ain't it?
I get sick of trying to explain it
See I can sit and argue with you but it goes beyond
Just being a snot, pointy nosed, bleached blonde
Cuz' I came here to uplift let your woes be gone
Tell em' to get #*@@!+ and just mosey on
Constantly movin' constantly using the constitution
As a form of restitution
Bless the children, nothing less than brilliant
Let me entertain you like Robbie Williams
I'll be here when y'all are gone re-building
World revolving, still evolving, still Slim
How many kids will copy ?
Probably millions
But Im'a do this as a ++%%%$' hobby till then...

[Chorus X1]

[Verse 3]
My lyrical content contains subject matter
That sucks up all these #*@@!+ up young kids
At an alarmin' rate, common denominate
Add it up and you'll see thats why I dominate
I try to stimulate but kids emulate
And mimmick ever move you make
"Slim you're great"
But wait, can't you see im only here to entertain?
I gotta be the one to go against the grain
Cuz man, I see it, feel it, live it
But its inhumane for me to see you be influenced
And pretend you ain't
But they don't understand that i've been through pain
If you get to know me I can be a friend you gain
But you can't just stand there and try to judge
It hurts but your jealousy probably tears you up inside as much
And its such a pleasure every button that I touch
I treasure every glutton that I punish in my lust

[Chorus X1]
every time I hear this song my reactions are always

When I discovered this song like in 2000 errr 2001, I was just wowed. Dude is firmly in my "Top Artist" list I don't care what anyone says.


...also at the end of the song when his lyrics are reveresed he is saying

"I'm not here to save you / I'm only here for the ride / So let me entertain you / And everything will be fine."

 

[guillermo gutierez]

It is def. piff

i rememeber when i stumbled upon it. i was like

i can call it his most underated cuz most people dont even know it exists.

 

[mastaace718]

Word. I stumbled on this song when I was on Kazaa back then

Song is crazy.

 

[henz0]

I cant remember how I stumbled across this song a long +%# time ago.. but %#!# is crazy

 

[tom jooks]

Masterpiece.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I forgot what mixtape I found this on, but it's almost perfect.

 

[malloy19]

With all honestly, i never payed this track any attention until I let it play past the 30 second mark about a year ago.. Ever since then its been one of my favEm tracks. Dude spazzed out on that one

 

[supersaiyan415]

i remember listening to this in one of those bonus cd's. i think it was the 8 mile album.

 

[tom jooks]

I had to come back just to say:

.

 

[thegameowesme]

One of my favorite Em tracks, but I think his most underrated song is "Rock Bottom"

 

[proshares]

A great song but I think Run Rabbit Run is the most underrated. One of his top songs IMO.

 

[clmj217]

I think "If I Get Locked Up Tonight" is his most underrated song

 

[lb81986]

This song is flames. His word play is

.

 

[honest abe lives]

%@%$, I really should've fell but I stood
See I came like a flame in the night
Like a ghost in the dark, there's a ray, there's a light
There's a hope there's a spark

His flow on these 4 bars was insane.

 

[nbamj2131]

One of his best songs. When he raps like this he can't be beat.

 

[the yes guy]

Good song, but I can never shake the feeling that simulate makes more sense than stimulate. "Simulate making you high" is better than "stimulatemaking you high" unless its really "Stimulate, making you high".

I felt it my duty to put all my friends onto this song back in 7th grade.


This song...Im not sure if ive ever heard it before but its awesome. This that cruisin gettin lit joint right now...

 

[guillermo gutierez]

is "if i get locked up tonight" the song where he's talkin about puttin some mans hand in a fan blade?

if so, that line is the line that pops in my head everytime i see the word "Eminem" cuz when i first heard it some years ago, nothin prior to thatmade me go

as much as that verse did.

If i Get Locked Up Tonight lyrics
{Eminem}
I used to be a lonely man, only mad, until I got a million dollars, !$+#
Now if i only had some %%%%!@% hair I'd pull it, faster than a bullet
Out of Tupac's chest before the ambulance came too late to do it
I'm trying to grow it back again, it was an accident
I had my back against the fan and chopped it off in Amsterdam
I hate the straight jacket it aint latching, and can't lock it
So they stapled my hand to my pants pockets
The cell's padded and battered like someone else had it
Before me, and just kept throwing they %%%%!@% selfs at it
My head is aching, I'm dedicated to medication
But this med is taking to long to bring me this sedadation (Come on!)
Anyway I got down with Dre (What up?)
The first man who taught me how the glock sounded to spray
Running up and down the street screaming, "##@% the Police"
When you still had your mother's %%%%!@% Nipple stuck in your teeth
(%%%%!@% baby) Became a role model after Colorado
Now all they do is follow me around and holla Bravo!
Hell yea I punch my ##+*! and beat my kids in public
Suck my $**+, ##+*!
I'm sick enough to ##@% a man in his face but I won't
Cause you'll probably wanna stand in his place
So put a sock in it, with your fake-++% Tupac image
You +#+@##% ain't tough, you just get drunk and become talkative
(Wanna Fight?) I'm probably the akwardest alcoholic talking
Walking like a ****** with a ladder in his back pocket
So when you see me on your block stumbling, mumbling
A bunch of dumb !$+# like my drunk uncle does
I ain't buzzed, I'mm juss high on life
So why on earth would I need drugs, when I can fly on kites?
%%@@$%+%%!+@#, Slim Shady

Dr Dre: Dr Dre!
Eminem: I'm drunk pass the tec

{Eminem And Dr. Dre }
Cause if I get locked up tonite!
Then I might not come home tonite!
{Dre} Keep it moving! Off and on, Eminem is on
Off and on, Dr. Dre is On
Cause if I get locked up tonite!
Then I might not come home tonite!
{Dre} Keep it moving! Off and on, Eminem is on
Off and on, Dr. Dre is On

{Eminem}
The whole entire world can sit and twirl like a whirling tire
I set a %%%%!@% girl on fire with a curling iron (AHH!)
Psych I'm just joking, for christ sake
Dont get so bent out of shape
Cause I went out and raped six girlfriends
Some people just don't get it, but I won't let it upset me
Cause they don't know better
They don't know what the ##@% its like to be so fed up
And fed so many uppers you're down and won't get up
My mind's got a mind of it's own, sometimes I can't find it at home
It hides in the stove (Hello, where you at?)

!$+#, talk about your brain being baked
My !$+#'s still in the oven on 480 degrees
Hailey Jade, daddy loves you baby,
Don't ever tell me how to raise my daughter ##@% you lady
You critics wanna criticize but couldnt visualize
Individuals lives through a criminal's eyes
The neighborhood that I grew up in you could die for nothing
And Dirty Dozen watches over me so try some dumb !$+#
I'll have a %%%%!@% man raped with a band-aid over his mouth
And shove his head in the fan blade................. a personal favorite line
Don't ever tell me what I can and what I can't say
Or change cause of the age range in my fan base
Like I give a ##@% who's buying this !$+#
Quit %%%%!@% buying it, I'm tired ##+*!, I'm dying to quit
Hip Hop is universal now, it's all commercial now
It's like a circle full of circus clowns up in the circuit now
But now the White kids like it, so they tell me I can buy it
But as soon as I get on the mic it's like the night get silent
Either that or booed, thats why I keep an attitude
And go to sleep with it and wake up with it every afternoon
I'm sick of being judged, ##@% it let me see a judge
I'll confess to every murder I committed since 3 years old



i love his use of alliteration/assonance/consonance....whatever. thats my fav. type of lyricism. i like it better then descriptive storytellin, songs with apurpose, or subliminal lyrics. it just SOUNDS nice. like people who dont even understand english can vibe off it just cuz the words rhyme alot more.

 

[mangudai954]

It was on The Tunnel mixtape.

 

[flash uno]

i think this was a cut track from the Eminem Show... Track Is Dope

 

[ofluo]

I will forever think "Drips" is one of Ems most underrated songs/ verses...

 

[freshmoney15]

^ Agreed. That song is underrated.

The most underrated songs from Em in my opinion are:

-Soldier
-Say Goodbye to Hollywood
-Square Dance
-Bad Influence

 

[cool...but rude]

I dont know if its his most underrated but its definitely one of them

 

[visualmusic]

I honestly thought I was the only one that felt like this. Nice! Dude spazzed on this track. Another track that I consider one of the best storys on waxis 'Can-a-*". Eminem went in; on the first listen, I couldn't stop laughing through the entire song. Everything moment seemed perfect

.

EDIT:
From my knowledge, this was on the Deluxe edition of 8 Mile, not the Eminem show.
