Eminem - 25 To Life lyrics

[Hook] Too late for the other side Caught in a chase, 25 to life [Verse 1] I don't think she understands the sacrifices that I've made Maybe if this b**h had acted right I woulda stayed But I've already wasted over half my life I woulda laid down and died for you, I no longer cry for you No more pain, b**h, you took me for granted, took my heart and ran it Straight into the planet, into the dirt, I can no longer stand it Now my respect I demand it: I'mma take control of this relationship Command it, and I'mma be the boss of you now, goddammit And what I mean is that I will no longer let you control me So you better hear me out, this much you owe me I gave up my life for you, totally devoted to you I have stayed Faithful all the way, this is how I f**ing get repaid? Look at how I dress: f**ing baggy sweats, go to work a mess Always in a rush to get back to you, I ain't heard you yet Not even once say you appreciate me, I deserve respect I've done my best to give you nothing less than perfectness And I know that if I end this I'll no longer have nothing left But you keep treating me like a staircase, it's time to f**ing step And I won't be coming back, so don't hold your f**ing breath You know what you've done, no need to go in depth I told you you'd be sorry if I f**ing left, I laughed while you wept How's it feel now, yeah, funny, ain't it? You neglected me Did me a favor, though, my spirit free you've set But a special place for you in my heart I have kept, it's unfortunate but it's [Hook] [Verse 2] I feel like when I bend over backwards for you all you do is laugh Cause that ain't good enough, you expect me to fold myself in half 'til I snap, don't think I'm loyal, all I do is rap How can I moonlight on the side, I have no life outside of that Don't I give you enough of my time, you don't think so, do you Jealous when I spend time with the girls, why I'm married to you still, man I don't know, but tonight I'm serving you with papers I'm divorcing you: go marry someone else and make 'em famous And take away their freedom like you did to me Treat 'em like you don't need 'em and they ain't worthy of you Feed 'em the same sh** that you made me eat, I'm moving on, forget you Oh, now I'm special? I ain't feel special when I was with you All I ever felt was this helplessness, imprisoned by a selfish b**h Chew me up and spit me out, I fell for this so many times it's ridiculous And still I stick with this, I'm sick of this But in my sickness and addiction, you're addictive as they get Evil as they come, vindictive as they make 'em My friends keep asking me why I can't just walk away from I'm addicted to the pain, the stress, the drama, I'm drawn to sh** I guess I'm a mess, cursed and blessed But this time I ain't changing my mind, I'm climbing out this abyss You're screaming as I walk out that I'll be missed But when you spoke of people who meant the most to you, you left me off your list f** you, hip hop, I'm leaving you, my life sentence is served, b**h and it's just... [Hook]
