nowhere fast (extended version)
eminem
sometimes i don't know what this world has come to
this whole country is goin' nuts and the nra is in our way
they're responsible for this whole production
they hold the strings to control the puppets
and they threaten to take away donor bucks
so they know the government won't do nothin' and no one's budgin'
they love their guns more than our children
i think another one just entered in our buildin'
and we'll be. ashes blowin' in the air
never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old
'cause the skies are black
but our heart's made of gold
fuck doin' what you're told
i feel sorry for this beat
sympathy pains for this track
this road is takin' me back
down memory lane with this rap
i can still look out in this crowd
be wowed and be taken aback
i'm simply stating a fact
i had wembley stadium packed
but now we're on a path headed to nowhere and fast
another terrorist attacks
like a tariff blows half of madison square up
but that isn't scaring us
never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old
but our heart's made of gold
fuck doin' what you're told
fuck doin' what you're told
shit is soon to go kaboom and blow anyways; for mc's it's a funeral
when i'm devisin' this rhyme
'cause i'm awake and you're mourning
that's why i rise and i shine like a new day has dawned on me
nuts and plus i kick up dust
i musta got you in somewhat of a debacle
'cause some stuff that's awful
really don't mean nothin' although
there's a lot of shit i said in jest that's tough to swallow
but if at times my heart it seems
like it's in the wrong place
it's probably 'cause it's on my sleeve
keanu reeves speed of life
we're only lookin' forward
it's gettin' warm in here
was born to be an arsonist
just one spark and it's lit
but i'ma still get dark on this shit
told you i'd leave my mark on this bitch-war machine
but you forced me in a corner
i'm sure to have somethin' for your rear
and in the course of the assault as torture gets more severe
you'll end up blew to timbuktu
a ten-ton nuke like kim jong-un and end up ruinin' your career
but when all is said and done
will i ever fall off? that day will never come
fuck you! i'm better than i ever was
but i'm not gonna sweat it 'cause
we're never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old
but our heart's made of gold
fuck doin' what you're told
you can't tell us nothin'
hard-headed and we're stubborn
one ear and out the other when we're young
who knows what the future for us could hold
never lookin' back and we're never gettin' old
but our heart's made of gold
fuck doin' what you're told
