[update: those who found these lyrics through a search engine, please read this update if you are a first time voter or need help voting.]
these are the lyrics to eminem's new song that "leaked" onto the internet. the song is critical of bush. it will be on eminem's next album "encore" due to drop november 16th. [i used "leaked" in quotes, because this song's message was most likely meant to be heard bfore november 2nd... i don't think it was accidentally leaked.]
the song begins with children reciting the opening words to the pledge of allegiance with the crescendoing sounds of bombs and helicopters eventually drowning out their words. the song's delivery is forceful and angry and set to grandiose pessimistic loops [in the same genre of the imperial death march in star wars - can't think of any other way to describe it].
no, eminem has never been subtle.
Eminem
Mosh
VERSE 1:
Scrutinize every word, memorize every line
I spit it once, refuel re-energize and rewind
I give sight to the blind, my insight through the mind
I exercise my right to express what I feel inside
Its just all in your mind, what you interpret it as
I say to fight you take it as I'mma whip someone's ass
If you don't understand don't even bother to ask
A father who has grown up with a fatherless past
Who has blown up now to rap phenomenon that has
Or atleast shows no difficulty multi-taskin
And juggling both, perhaps mastered his craft, slash
Entrepenaur, who has helped launch a few more rap acts
Who has had a few obstacles thrown his way through the last half
Of his careeer, typical manur, moving past that
Mister kiss his ass crack, hes a class act
Rubberband man, yeah, he just snaps back
(Chorus)
Come along, follow me, as I lead through the darkness
As I provide just enough spark that we need, to proceed
Carry on, give me hope, give me strength, come with me, and I won't, steer you wrong
Give your faith and your trust, as I guide us through the fog, to the light at the end of the tunnel
We gon fight, we gon charge, we gon stomp, we gon march through the swamp, we gon mosh through the marsh, take us right
through the doors
Come on
VERSE 2:
All the people up top, on the side and the middle, from the ghetto, lets all form and stomp just a little
Just let it gradually build, from the front to the back
All you can see is a sea of people, some white and some black
Don’t matter what color, all that matters is we're gathered together
To celebrate for the same cause, no matter the weather
If it rains, let it rain, yeah the wetter the better
They ain’t gon’ stop us, they cant, were stronger now more then ever
They tell us no we say yeah, they tell us stop we say go
Rebel with a rebel yell, raise hell, we gon let em? No
Stomp, push, shove, mush... Fuck Bush, until they bring our troops home
Come On
(Chorus)
Come along, follow me, as I lead through the darkness
As I provide just enough spark that we need, to proceed
Carry on, give me hope, give me strength, come with me, and I won't, steer you wrong
Give your faith and your trust, as I guide us through the fog, to the light at the end of the tunnel
We gon fight, we gon charge, we gon stomp, we gon march through the swamp, we gon mosh through the marsh, take us right
through the doors
Come on
VERSE 3:
Imagine it poorin, its rainin down on us, mosh pits outside the oval office
Someone’s tryin to tell us something, maybe this is god, just sayin we responsible
For this monster, this coward, that we have empowered
This is Bin Laden, look at his head noddin, how can we allow something like this, without pumpin our fists
Now, this is our, final hour
Let me, be the voice, in your strength and your choice, let me simplify the rhyme, just to amplify the noise
Tryin to amplify to times it, and multiply it by six-teen million people are equal at this high pitch
Maybe we can reach alqueda through my speech, let the president answer our high anarchy
Strap him with a AK-47, let him go fight his own war, let him impress daddy that way
No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our own soil, no more psychological warfare to trick us to thinking that we ain’t loyal
If we don’t serve our own country, we’re patronizing our hero
Look in his eyes, its all lies, the stars and stripes, have been swiped, washed out and wiped,
And replaced with his own face, mosh now or die, if I get sniped tonight, you’ll know why, cuz I told you to fight
(Chorus)
Come along, follow me, as I lead through the darkness
As I provide just enough spark that we need, to proceed
Carry on, give me hope, give me strength, come with me, and I won't, steer you wrong
Give your faith and your trust, as I guide us through the fog, to the light at the end of the tunnel
We gon fight, we gon charge, we gon stomp, we gon march through the swamp, we gon mosh through the marsh, take us right
through the doors
Come on
(Epilogue)
And as we proceed to mosh through this desert storm
And these closing statements if they should argue
Let us beg to differ
As we set aside our differences
And assemble our own army
To disarm this weapon of mass destruction
That we call our president for the present
And mosh for the future of our generation
To speak and be heard
Mr. President, Mr. Senator
(children's voices: you guys hear us?)

Eminem is an idiot. The things that he says could hold him accountable to treason. In the 40s and 50s our government was executing people for basically the same thing. I mean when you say F the president and that people should rebel, that is and should be prosecuted as high treason. What has our country come to.
will opened his butthole and this gem fell out:
"Eminem is an idiot. The things that he says could hold him accountable to treason."
please learn english before mangling it. define treason. i really want to hear what you think it is.
"In the 40s and 50s our government was executing people for basically the same thing."
we didn't have music videos in the 40s and 50s. and yes, people were executed for trying to exercise their right to vote -- namely black people.
"I mean when you say F the president and that people should rebel, that is and should be prosecuted as high treason. What has our country come to."
our country has come to what it has always been. it is not high treason to say 'Fuck the President.' you are one of the most poorly informed people to ever come to this blog.
are you aware that the right to dissent is enshrined in the Constitution? it's called 'freedom of speech.' are you saying that it was treason to vote against someone or to encourage others to do so? because if that's what you're saying, i would like to direct you to some information about such a regime. i remind you that eminem didn't advocate mass violence. what is advocated was taking advantage of the right to vote. omigod! what a crime!
please take your authortarian attitudes and shove them right up your puckered little asshole.
thanks for visiting!
freedom of speech people, i understand some have forgotten what that is since the patriot act bush enacted, but we do have it! to try someone for treason for exercising that freedom is treason, and a violation of that persons rights.
