Careful What You Wish For
Lyricist:Steven King, Marshall Mathers Iii, Luis Resto
So this is it, this is what I wished for Just isn't how I envisioned it Feigned to the point of imprisonment I just thought the shit'd be different But somethin' changed the minute that I got a whiff of it
I started to inhale it, smell it, started sniffin' it And it became my cocaine, I just couldn't quit I just wanted a little bit, then it turned me to a monster I became a hypocrite, concert after concert
I was rakin' in the dough, rollin' in green Had the game hemmed up like a sewin' machine But I was losin' my freedom There was no where for me, to not go and be seen And just go and be me
And there was no in between You either loved it or hate it Every CD critics gave it a 3, then 3 Years later, they'd go back and re-rate it And call the Slim Shady LP the greatest
'The Marshall Mathers' was a classic 'The Eminem Show' was fantastic But 'Encore' just didn't have the caliber to match it I guess enough time just ain't passed yet A couple more years that shit'll be 'Ill-matic'
And eight years later I'm still at it Divorce, re-married, a felon, a father, sleepin' pill addict And this is real talk, I feel like the Incredible Hulk My back has been broke, I can still walk
So be careful what you wish for 'Cause you just might get it and if you get it Then you just might not know what to do wit' it 'Cause it might just come back on you ten fold

I got a letter from a fan that said he's been prayin' for me Everyday and for some reason It's been weighin' on my mind heavy 'Cause I don't read every letter I get But somethin' told me to go ahead and open it
But why would someone pray for you When they don't know you? You didn't pray for me when I was local And as I lay these vocals I think of all the shit I had to go through Just to get to where I'm at
I've already told you at least a thousand times in these rhymes I appreciate the prayer but I've already got God on my side And it's been one hell of a ride, hasn't it? Just watchin' it from an opposite standpoint Man, boy's got to look nuts
And that's the only word I can think of right now On how to describe the shit This is like a vibe you get, go ahead and bob to it Just watch what you wish for 'cause I got the shit
So be careful what you wish for 'Cause you just might get it and if you get it Then you just might not know what to do wit' it 'Cause it might just come back on you ten fold
