Eminem - Evil Deeds

Lord please forgive me for what I do

For I know not what I've done

Father please forgive me for I know not what I do

I just never had the chance to ever meet you

Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be

My mother's evil seed and do these evil deeds

Momma had a baby and it's head popped off

(head popped off, head popped off, head popped off,

head popped off, head popped off)

My momma don't want me, the next thing I know I'm gettin' dropped off

(gettin' dropped off, gettin' dropped off,

gettin' dropped off, gettin' dropped off)

Ring ring ring, on the door bell

and the next door neighbors on their front porch

(their front porch, their front porch,

their front porch, their front porch)

But they didn't want me neither so they left me on someone elses lawn

(elses lawn, elses lawn, elses lawn)

Till somebody finally took me in, my great aunt, uncle Edna 'n Charles

(Edna 'n Charles, Edna 'n Charles, Edna 'n Charles, Edna 'n Charles)

They were the ones who were left in charge

My elementary they gang up on me and sang this song

(sang this song, sang this song, sang this song, sang this song)

It went a little something

like mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb

Debbie had a Satan spawn, Satan spawn

Momma why do they keep saying this I just dont understand, understand

And by the way, where's my dad?

Father please forgive me for I know not what I do

I just never had the chance to ever meet you

Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be

My mother's evil seed and do these evil deeds

Predominantly, predominantly, everythings always predominantly

Predominantly white, predominantly black

But what about me, where does that leave me

Well I guess that I'm between predominantly both of 'em

I think if I hear that fuckin' word again I'mma scream

While I'm projectile vomiting,

what do I look like, a comedian to you?

Do you think that I'm kidding?

What do I look like some kind of idi-wait a minute,

shit, don't answer that

Why am I so misunderstood?

Why do I go through so much bullshit, it sucks bullshit,

Woe is me, there goes poor Marshall again

Whining about his millions and his mansion

and his sorrow he's always drownin' in

From the dad he never had, and how his childhood was so bad

And how his mom was a dope addict, and his ex-wife how they go at it

Man I'd hate to have it, as bad as that Mr. Mathers claims he had it

I can't imagine it, that little rich poor white bastard

Needs to take some of that cash out the bank and take a bath in it

Father please forgive me for I know not what I do

I just never had the chance to ever meet you

Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be

My mother's evil seed and do these evil deeds

Evil deeds, while I plant these evil seeds

Please release me from these deamons

I never had any of this shit planned ma, please believe

I don't wanna be Satan's spawn, never got the chance to say I'm sorry

Now look at all the pain I caused

This Santa Clause, why you not comin' this year again

What did I do that was so bad to deserve this

Everything could have been so perfect

But life ain't a fairytale, I'm about to be hoist up in the air

Forty feet below me, there's people everywhere

I don't even know what it feel like,

they know me cuz I'm in this ferris wheel

And all i wanna do is go to the mall and take hailie on the carousel

Without this crowd everywhere I go, but life is like a merry-go-round

Here we go now, doe see doe now, curtains up, the show must go now

Ring around the rosie, the shows over, you can all go home now

But the curtain just don't close for me,

this ain't how fame is supposed to be

Where's the switch I could just turn off and on,

this ain't what I chose to be

So please god, give me the strength

to have what it takes to carry on

Till I pass 50 back the baton, the camera's on, myself is gone

Father please forgive me for I know not what I do

I just never had the chance to ever meet you

Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be

My mother's evil seed and do these evil deeds

Father please forgive me for I know not what I do

I just never had the chance to ever meet you

Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be

My mother's evil seed and do these evil deeds
