Who else Went down an Eminem rabbit hole after Houdini

“Why would I want to help destroy something I helped build.” - most underated line I can think of

Admit it, whenever you listen to an Eminem's song you end up doing marathon

[Intro] Step by step, heart to heart Left, right, left We all fall down [Hook] Step by step, heart to heart Left, right, left We all fall down like toy soldiers Bit by bit, torn apart We never win But the battle wages on for toy soldiers [Verse 1] I'm supposed to be the soldier Who never blows his composure Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders, I ain't never supposed to show it My crew ain't supposed to know it Even if it means going toe to toe with a Benzino It don't matter I'd never drag them in battles that I can handle 'Less I absolutely have to, I'm supposed to set an example I need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'em If some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em That Ja shit, I tried to squash it It was too late to stop it There's a certain line you just don't cross, and he crossed it I heard him say Hailie's name on a song And I just lost it it was crazy The shit went way beyond some Jay Z and Nas shit And even though the battle is won, I feel like we lost it I spent so much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted And I'm so caught in it I almost feel I'm the one who caused it This ain't what I'm in hip hop for, it's not why I got in it That was never my object, for someone to get killed Why would I want to destroy something I helped build? It wasn't my intentions, my intentions were good I went through my whole career Without ever mentioning And that was just outta respect, for not running my mouth And talking about something that I knew nothing about Plus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth While he's all over TV Down-talking the man who literally saved my life Like, fuck it, I understand This is business, and this shit just isn't none of my business I'm still knowing this shit could pop off at any minute, ‘cause… [Hook] Step by step, heart to heart Left, right, left We all fall down like toy soldiers Bit by bit, torn apart We never win But the battle wages on for toy soldiers [Verse 2] There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme and Wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin' But now it's elevated ‘Cause once you put someone's kids in it The shit gets escalated it ain't just words no more, is it? It's a different ball game You call names and you ain't just rappin' We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happenin' Me and Dre had sat with him Kicked it and had a chat with him And asked him not to start it, he wasn't gonna go after him Until Ja started yappin' in magazines how he stabbed him Fuck it, "50, smash him! Mash him and let him have it!" Meanwhile my attention's pulled in another direction Some receptionist at the Source Who answers phones at his desk Has an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrection Tries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new record But now he's fucked the game up, ‘cause one of the ways I came up, was through that publication The same one that made me famous Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin'? Well, fuck it, that mothafucka could get it too, fuck him then! But I'm so busy being pissed off, I don't stop to think That we just inherited 50's beef with Murder Inc And he's inherited mine, which is fine Ain't like either of us mind We still have soldiers that's on the front line That's willing to die for us as soon as we give the orders Never to extort us, strictly to show they support us And maybe shout 'em out in a rap or up in the chorus To show 'em we love 'em back And let them know how important it is To have Runyon Avenue soldiers up in our corners Their loyalty to us is worth more than any award is But I ain't tryin' to have none of my people hurt or murdered It ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word it Than to just say that I love y'all too much to see the verdict I'll walk away from it all 'fore I let it go any further But don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm coppin' I'm just willing to be the bigger man if y'all can quit poppin' Off at your jaws, well, then I can ‘Cause frankly I'm sick of talkin'. I'm not going to let someone else's coffin rest on my conscience, ‘cause… [Hook] Step by step, heart to heart Left, right, left We all fall down like toy soldiers Bit by bit, torn apart We never win But the battle wages on for toy soldiers ps.i can't see anyone posting lyrics anywhere so I wrote it down,you can thank me later pps .also don't forget to like this so other people can see this so they can understand this masterpiece better Personal update:oh shit 1.1k likes yet I only have 10 subscribers,oh what the hell thank you guys for liking,but I'm not taking any credit this is eminem's lyrics so credit goes to him

This video hits so much harder knowing that Proof actually died like that

Houdini thew me into the way back machine

Man.. when i was 12 a friend showed me this song for the first time. Haven’t seen him for years and found out he died in an accident. Never took a picture with him or anything, my only memory of him is this song. RIP MARSHAL JOHNSON

Is it only me or Eminems songs are just getting deeper as we grow older. Like I never realized how deep this song is.

Eminem, undeniably an icon of rap, continues to influence and shape the landscape of the genre to this day. His unmatched storytelling ability, visceral lyrics, and magnetic stage presence have defined modern rap. His legacy is unquestionable, and his impact is felt in every beat, every verse, and every line he drops.

I'm here after the Drake Vs KDot beef, Drake mentioned Kdots family. Made me think of this song, "There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme and Wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin' But now it's elevated, 'cause once you put someone's kids in it The shit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more, is it? It's a different ballgame, you callin' names, and you ain't just rappin"

when eminem dies, he will go down as one of these legends🙏🏽

I still honestly love how powerful this song is.

So glad i got to experience this music when it first released. Eminem was something else in the late 90s, early 00s.

When you go through Em’s catalog you’ll realize why he’s one of the best to ever do it 🗣
