“I’m moving on, forget you. Oh now I’m special!? I never felt special when I was with you! All I ever felt was this, helplessness.” I feel that so hard.
Out there are 1 or 2 or many woman's, for the good and the bad reasons do this... I have tried both, let me rephrase that, i have never make anyone feel bad about themselves on purpose, but i have lifted the courage, self-esteem and love for their own use... Let me tell i got screwed both time, the one that i didn't have to lift up he always thought of him self as the King idk who's but wasn't mine, he is the her of my first princess up to this day he tells me: with You i take my Hat Off. In Cuban that's the most respect you can get verbally in a few words. I have much respect for him too and even we don't talk no more i wish him the best, cuz he never moved a finger to hurt me he was actually one of the ones that sat me down and says im no good for you, you deserve better and preferred to walkout in having a chance of life with me, than to hurt me with words or actions. Now in the other hand, this bitch nigga, that yeah... i think is more handsome and not such beast as this man im about to talk about the father of my last 2 princesses, after i for real made him feel and live the life of a King, made him feel Brad Pitt put him in a pedestal, turns around and does the Scorpion move on me, that's crazy i seriously let him destroyed me, let him show me how much Mercy he felt inside. Audience, i couldn't even been so more exact choosing the similarities between this 2 mans, even the birthdays are the same 10-25, 1st 72 and last 74, it was all coincidence i did not know this when i choose them. Im talking about the DOB. And chooses to act so differently than the other one. Crazy shit ain't???
same here !!! He came out when I was 12 and probably saved my life because he expressed what i was feeling and it let me know there are other people like me out there !
it took me almost 10 years to realize 25 to life refers to him feeling imprisoned by the rap game for a 25 to life sentence but 25 is also the age Eminem was when he started getting big (just before releasing SSLP,) meaning he's in it for life... god damn
Jesus Christ is Lord God of all! God bless you all! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is too difficult for the Lord our God, with Christ, ALL things are possible!

It has two meanings. Hip hop yeah but also his relationship. It is relatable. He made it that way for a reason. Not everyone can relate to hip hop but... Many can a loveless relationship. Its partly why he is so clever
I mean, the relationship meaning is too obvious, its rather a metaphorical analogy to his relationship with hip hop, and if you wanna take a different look, it's his relationship with drugs
12 years of a friendship with this girl and she just says "goodbye" because of one stupid thing that we disagree with. I'm done. Thank you Eminem so much for this song man, I can totally relate.
I will support Eminems music till the end. I've been listen to it since I was 15-16 and I'm goin on 35 this January. Alot of his music we can all relate to. The ones that talk shit are the ones that never seen rock bottom, hey have no clue at all. Keep dropping records and rocking out. We all luv u and will support you till the end... 😘😘😘
Tiaka Barry Em is the best rapper alive. Everyone has different opinion but (my opinion) Biggie is #1 Eminem is #2 (my opinion) because there's songs have lasting meaning and bump in any nice crappy soundsystem/great soundsystem. Marshall Mathers goes hard any day of the week
I still remember where I was when I first heard Hi My Name Is on the radio, they'd do a new song competition at 9pm and I was hooked from the first line
Almost none of his songs except the gay mainstream ones make it to the radio, especially in Canada because this pussy progressive government is against hate speech and he's not even allowed to perform here.
Man, nobody will ever understand the power of this song and album, Recovery 2010-2011 I'll never forget them years. A decade on and I'm still clinging to these tracks to get me out of this hole.
Hope u get through whatever u r dealing with, man ❤. I am 14 rn, i was 4 back then lol. So didn't get how it felt back in the day when the album dropped
+Ezequiel Lavezzi because, like he said in going through changes, he feels trapped in his fame. And also the fact that at the very end, he actually says "Fuck you hip-hop, i'm leaving you"
People need to grow up and learn and face their problems before they become the problems and then there will be noone to help with the problems they made
I LOVED Eminem growing up, all through high school he would get my hyped for Basketball games (I'm 27 now). With that said, now 10+ years later i'm picking up on so much more things in his lyrics, actually been through real life for a bit, certain lyrics really hit now when they never used to. Crazy how music can affect you at different points in life.

Some people in this comments section need to go learn a bit about metaphors and other rhetorical devices. I get your confusion if you think it's about Kim, because that's what Em is seeking out. It's a plot twist. He subtlety foreshadows it in 2:23. It's not about Kim, it's a whole metaphor. If you think it's about Illuminati, no. If you think it's about pancakes, you're onto something.
Every song he writes is just better than the last, his potential is truly unlimited, thank God for showing us Eminem and his talent, how privileged we are to witness his raps. :D
That's your opinion. Personally I believe in God, but if you don't, it's your loss. Please don't comment about other's beliefs, because it just starts beef and nobody wants that. Thanks, and may God light your life. (:
+Looshus Kapahs There is no evidence to say whether or not you actually exist... You are just a random person speaking across the internet. You could be fake. You are the close minded one man, you gotta let everyone believe what they want. Because we, as a people, have to accept everyone so that we can advance.
One of the most powerful songs ever made, I like pop but what eminem does with hiphop, saying so much and telling such a powerful story, man it's a gem
+kenny12321 I have always been able to see what was deleted by clicking on the deleted video itself from within my playlist. It will show at the top what the video was...now, videos that were made private on the other hand...SOL.
+golden otis ya so ya can you watch my son strawberry so she was like yeah I could take it today so um she says well can you can you take him shows no shows not on no no no no 1 crew and I'm not going well you have to 1 o'clock every morning that's the time I have to go home before I go out
+golden otis copy video code and google it, that way you know what was there they deleted a whole bunch of 9/11 and other vids kek.. good thing i have them saved
I listened to this whole album in high-school on repeat and it helped me so much through my depression. I used to be able to completely rap quite a few of the songs. Now I still listen to these songs to help with my crippling depression today.
This song has the biggest plot twist in history. All the time I think it's about Kim, but then he says "Fuck you Hip-Hop" and my mind blew up. EDIT: I just realized in the second verse, before he said the above, he says "Don't think I'm loyal?, All I do is Rap" which I can't believe I missed. EDIT 2: If you actually pay attention to the song there are various parts where you know it's about the rap game and hip hop and not Kim.
***** Well true, but how good is Eminem at this that he can make just a rap song into a great story with plot twists. It actually makes you think a little.
Eminem once again your music is here for me when i'm at my lowest to lift me up and tell me that i can do it! Long after you are gone your music will live on through our hearts you will never be forgotten, a true legend, a true hero!
Same, I used to jam this song back in high-school and knew every single word and could relate a little bit, not knowing 15 years later I'd be going through this bullshit with my now ex fiance and it Hits totally different now. Keep your heads up, we deserve better. Who knew there was such fake ass evil people walking around. I didn't that's for sure.
Marcus Johnson, Sr. he purposely made it sound like a relationship so fans could relate to it. Yes,it is actually about his Hiphop career:it says that at the end. Do you get what I mean tho???
Marcus Johnson, Sr. The whole song is a play on words you could interpret the lyrics either way he purposely did this so some people can relate this to a shitty relationship while to him it talks about his relationship with hip hop and rap
Marcus Johnson, Sr. yeah he says fuck you hip hop at the end, i fucking love how at first you think he's talking about his bitch or fans, its almost a triple entaundra
Marcus Johnson, Sr. I mean everyone has a different look on music. That's what makes it unique. He's talking about hip hop but if other people didn't relate they wouldn't enjoy the song.
My ex-fiance just up and left, after all I did for us... and that hurts more than anything... I love her more than anything and I dont want anybody else.
stan shaud move on bro I was married for over 10 yrs and she cheated and I tried reconciling with her for sake of children but it just doesn’t seem possible. She’s yet to actually acknowledge her wrong doings she did to me. I’m sore to forgive when you show yourself to be a fucking narcissistic bitch without empathy or conscience.
The verse first is about his life in hip-hop. How he dedicated his life to hip hop. How it's too late to start another career. The second verse is about his ex-wife and how he can't take back the youth life he had with her. Hence, the title 25 to life.
I’m a huge music lover. As im from india i got introduced to eminem in mid 2000’s. For years i was just listening to him only. Now im kinda off the hook now, but whenever some depression kicks in i always comes for his music only.
I listen to Eminem's songs during class, because if no one's going to be there for me then at least I can have someone who understands me. Eminem truly rules✌
This song literally helped save my life. I dedicate this song to my alcoholism that I've been free of since a little after this song came out. This song got me through some pretty tough and tragic times.
I am convinced that Eminem is officially my Favorite rapper now. I just really respect what he has done with his career and to come up so big in the Rap Game from were he came from, is like a one in a million chance. Hopefully one day I will be able to meet him and maybe do a song with Him forreal. But if anyone is still Reading this, I am a 16 year old rapper and i am trying my best to get my songs out there you know? Mind checking them out and telling me how I did? I Produced some of my songs too. Thank you
Keep pushing bro make your dream a reality and don't mind negative comments cause we all will always have that around us instead of slapping each other , eat together
You know how to get publicity kid???Not the internet I'll tell you that! GO OUT AND SPREAD YOUR MUSIC IN REAL LIFE AND INTERACT WITH YOUR FANS!! COME ON MAN IM 16 AND I KNOW THIS
I still cant belive my actual childhood dream came true and I got to meet eminem it was such a glorious feeling . Like my life had been completed... this guy has helped me so fukin much I cant even explain it to him even if I told him .
This song will always have a special place in my heart It brings my childhood memories in our old house before the war in syria Listening to this song and other old playlists while watching my brother plays his favourite pc game after getting home from school and eating sncaks Those were one of my happiest days in life
Sometime you can just interpret the song for whatever reason you're watching it, be it a relationship, a profession or absolutely anything in context. This is one of those instances.
Eminem has madre many refrences to being married to hip hop not afraid he says he's married to the game. No love is about being treated bad by hip hop really the whole recovery album is about it but he still makes the greatest rap out there from the monster to guts over fear and now phenomenal and kings never die. He's in his 40 s but still way better than these young guys that are coming up like fetty wap
The raw emotion and passion he really is the GOAT I can always picture him dropping the Mic at end n walking off stage one of his best songs wish it had a music video
honestly one of my favorite songs ever, this is the kind of song you can just let all your emotions out to. if you're having a bad day just turn this on and put the volume up on high.
This was the second ever song I learned all the lyrics to I was like 5 or 6, the very first song was Beautiful by eminems and to this day I can still remember every single word. Mental how massively a song can impact you
25 to life is a a prison sentence life imprisonment The rap game left him a drug addict widdow his kids didnt really know him lost his best friend his old friends fell out with him because he hit the big time now alone trapped in a mansion imprisoned and wasn't until recently even listed or mentioned in the top 100 hip hop artists on TV, radio countdowns but people like coolio will smith chamilionare Asher roth Petey Pablo hot stylz and t pain was on the shit
Eminem is a special rapper. A lot of rappers started off hot but cooled down. Eminem is one of the few that gets better and better as he ages. What a legend. Up there with pac and biggie in my opinion.
you can use this song whether it's about an ex, drugs ect... song has so much meaning. when I was first getting clean, had 3 Eminem songs in rehab and they stayed on repeat for over a month and this was one of them, helped me overcome addiction and my ex.
Hip Hop / Women / Difficult Relationships, whatever you take away from this song, Eminem conveys raw emotion in a way I can relate to more than any other artist. Basically the only artist I can listen to at the moment. Heartbreak feels like it's killing me right now.
