The Way I Am by Eminem
Lyrics & Translation
English
Whatever
Dre, just let it run
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
Aiyyo... this song is for anyone... fuck it
Just shut up and listen, aiyyo
I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag
Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
The most meanest MC on this - on this Earth
And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
All this tension dispensing these sentences
Getting this stress that's been eating me recently off of this chest
And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)
But at least have the decency in you
To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
In the streets when I'm eating or feeding my daughter
Do not come and speak to me (speak to me)
I don't know you and no
I don't owe you a motherfucking thing
I'm not Mr. N'Sync, I'm not what your friends think
I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick
If you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)
No patience is in me and if you offend me
I'm lifting you 10 feet (lifting you 10 feet)... in the air
I don't care who was there and who saw me just jaw you
Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
I'm tired of all you (of all you)
I don't mean to be mean, but that's all I can be it's just me
And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
I don't know, it's just the way I am
Sometimes I just feel like my father
I hate to be bothered
With all of this nonsense it's constant
And, "Oh, it's his lyrical content -
- the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses"
And all of this controversy circles me
And it seems like the media immediately
Points a finger at me (finger at me)
So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie
Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up
When you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up
With the bullshit they pull, 'cause they full of shit too
When a dude's getting bullied and shoots up his school
And they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn)... and the heroin
Where were the parents at? And look where it's at
Middle America, now it's a tragedy
Now it's so sad to see, an upper class city
Having this happening (this happening)
Then attack Eminem 'cause I rap this way (rap this way)
But I'm glad 'cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
To burn and it's burning and I have returned
And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
I don't know it's just the way I am
I'm so sick and tired of being admired
That I wish that I would just die or get fired
And dropped from my label, let's stop with the fables
I'm not gonna be able to top on "My Name is... "
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
That got me rotation at rock'n'roll stations
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)
To deal with these cocky Caucasians who think
I'm some wigger who just tries to be black 'cause I talk
With an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep asking
The same fucking questions (fucking questions)
What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
'Til I'm grabbing my hair and I'm tearing it out
'Cause they driving me crazy (driving me crazy)... I can't take it
I'm racing, I'm pacing, I stand and I sit
And I'm thankful for every fan that I get
But I can't take a shit, in the bathroom
Without someone standing by it
No, I won't sign your autograph
You can call me an asshole I'm glad
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news every day I am
I don't know, it's just the way I am

The Way I Am (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Lo que sea
Dre, solo déjalo sonar
Aiyyo sube un poco el ritmo
Aiyyo... esta canción es para cualquiera... a la mierda
Solo cállate y escucha, aiyyo
Me siento con este paquete de Zig Zags y esta bolsa
De esta hierba me da la mierda necesaria para ser
El MC más malvado en esta - en esta Tierra
Y desde que nací he sido maldecido con esta maldición de solo maldecir
Y solo soltar esta mierda alocada y bizarra que funciona
Y se vende y ayuda en sí misma a aliviar
Toda esta tensión dispensando estas oraciones
Quitándome este estrés que me ha estado carcomiendo recientemente de este pecho
Y descanso de nuevo pacíficamente (pacíficamente)
Pero al menos ten la decencia en ti
De dejarme en paz, cuando ustedes, bichos raros, me vean
En las calles cuando estoy comiendo o alimentando a mi hija
No vengan a hablarme (hablarme)
No te conozco y no
No te debo ni una puta cosa
No soy Mr. N'Sync, no soy lo que tus amigos piensan
No soy Mr. Amigable, puedo ser un cabrón
Si me tientas mi tanque está vacío (está vacío)
No hay paciencia en mí y si me ofendes
Te levanto 3 metros (te levanto 3 metros)... en el aire
No me importa quién estuvo allí y quién me vio solo golpearte
Ve a llamar a un abogado, preséntate una demanda
Sonreiré en la corte y te compraré un guardarropa
Estoy cansado de todos ustedes (de todos ustedes)
No pretendo ser malo, pero es todo lo que puedo ser, solo soy yo
Y soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
La radio ni siquiera tocará mi canción
Porque soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
No lo sé, es solo la forma en que soy
A veces me siento como mi padre
Odio que me molesten
Con toda esta tontería es constante
Y, "Oh, es su contenido lírico -
- la canción 'Guilty Conscience' ha recibido respuestas tan podridas"
Y toda esta controversia me rodea
Y parece que los medios inmediatamente
Me señalan con el dedo (me señalan con el dedo)
Así que les devuelvo uno, pero no el índice o el meñique
Ni el anular ni el pulgar, es el que levantas
Cuando te importa una mierda, cuando no vas a aguantar
La mierda que hacen, porque ellos también están llenos de mierda
Cuando un tipo es acosado y dispara en su escuela
Y lo culpan a Marilyn (a Marilyn)... y a la heroína
¿Dónde estaban los padres? Y mira dónde está
El centro de América, ahora es una tragedia
Ahora es tan triste ver, una ciudad de clase alta
Teniendo esto sucediendo (esto sucediendo)
Luego atacan a Eminem porque rapeo así (rapeo así)
Pero me alegro porque me dan el combustible que necesito para el fuego
Para arder y está ardiendo y he regresado
Y soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
La radio ni siquiera tocará mi canción
Porque soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
No lo sé, es solo la forma en que soy
Estoy tan harto y cansado de ser admirado
Que desearía simplemente morir o ser despedido
Y que me echen de mi sello, dejemos las fábulas
No voy a poder superar "My Name is..."
Y encasillado en alguna sensación popera
Que me dio rotación en estaciones de rock'n'roll
Y simplemente no tengo la paciencia (tengo la paciencia)
Para lidiar con estos caucásicos engreídos que piensan
Que soy un wigger que solo intenta ser negro porque hablo
Con acento, y me agarro los huevos, así que siempre siguen preguntando
Las mismas putas preguntas (putas preguntas)
A qué escuela fui, en qué barrio crecí
El por qué, el quién qué cuándo, el dónde y el cómo
Hasta que me agarro el pelo y me lo arranco
Porque me están volviendo loco (volviendo loco)... No lo soporto
Estoy corriendo, estoy caminando, me paro y me siento
Y estoy agradecido por cada fan que consigo
Pero no puedo cagar, en el baño
Sin que alguien esté parado al lado
No, no firmaré tu autógrafo
Puedes llamarme gilipollas, me alegro
Porque soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
La radio ni siquiera tocará mi canción
Porque soy, lo que digas que soy
Si no lo fuera, ¿por qué diría que lo soy?
En el periódico, las noticias todos los días soy
No lo sé, es solo la forma en que soy
