    No reason to be rude, just my opinion. I'm aware this verse isn't even in his top 100, but i like it.

    One of my favorite verses not posted already is Em's verse on Hellbound. That rhyme scheme :rejoice:

    Yo.. Slim Shady!
    Yo.. I'll f---in.. I'll..
    I'll puke, eat it, and freak you
    Battle? I'm too weeded to speak to
    The only key that I see to defeat you
    would be for me to remove these two Adidas and beat you
    and force feed you 'em both, and on each feet is a cleat shoe
    I'll lift you off your feet so fast with a roundhouse
    you'll think I pulled the f---in ground out from underneath you
    I ain't no f---in G, I'm a cannibal
    I ain't tryin to s---t you,
    I'm tryin to chop you into pieces and eat you
    Wrap you in rope and plastic, stab you with broken glass
    and have you with open gashes strapped to a soakin mattress
    Coke and acid, black magic, cloaks and daggers
    f--- the planet, until it spins on a broken axis
    I'm so bananas I'm showin up to your open casket
    to fill it full of explosive gasses
    and close it back with a lit match in it
    while I sit back and just hope it catches
    Blow you to fragments
    Laugh, roll you and smoke the ashes

    "s--- on You" Eminem's verse first:

    [Eminem:]
    My adolescent years weren't s--- to wait I do know
    I never grew up- I was born grown and grew down
    The older I get- the dumber the s--- I get in
    The more ignorant the incident is- I fit in
    Ignorin' the s---? How boring it gets when there's no one to hit
    I don't know when to quit throwin' a fit (nope)
    I know I'm a bit flaky- but they make me
    It's they who hate me and say they can takee (c'mon)
    It's they whose legs I break and make achey
    It's they who mistake me make me so angry (urgh)
    I'LL s--- ON YOU
    I'll spit on you
    Start pissin' and do the opposite on you
    You weren't listenin'- I said I'll cop a squad on you
    Start spillin' my guts like chicken cordeu bleu and straight s---
    like Notorious BIG did to that b---- on the skit on his last album
    Pull my pants down and...

    See the problem is, I speak to suburban kids, who otherwise would of never knew these words
    Exist, whose mom's probably would of never gave two squirts of piss, 'till I created so much
    Motherfuckin' turbulence, straight out the tube, right into your living room I came, and kids
    Flipped when they knew I was produced by Dre, that's all it took, and they were instantly hooked
    Right in, and they connected with me too because I looked like them, that's why they put my
    Lyrics up under this microscope, searchin' with a fine tooth comb, its like this rope, waitin'
    To choke, tightening around my throat, watching me while I write this, like I don't like this,
    Nope, all I hear is, lyrics, lyrics, constant controversy, sponsors working 'round the clock, to
    Try to stop my concerts early, surely hip-hop was never a problem in Harlem, only in Boston,
    After it bothered the fathers of daughters starting to blossom, so now I'm catchin' the flack
    From these activists when they raggin', actin' like I'm the first rapper to smack a b----, or
    Say fa----, s---, just look at me like I'm your closest pal, the posterchild, the motherfuckin'
    Spokesman now for...
    Yo.. I listen to your demo tape and act like I don't like it
    (Aww that s--- is wack!)
    Six months later you hear your lyrics on my s---
    (What?? That's my s---!)
    People don't buy s--- no more they just dub it
    That's why I'm still broke and had the number one club hit (Yup, uh huh)
    But they love it when you make your business public
    so f--- it, I've got herpes while we on the subject (uh-huh)
    And if I told you I had AIDS y'all would play it
    cause you stupid MFers think I'm playin when I say it
    -- Well, I do take pills, don't do speed
    Don't do crack (uh-uhh) don't do coke, I do smoke weed (uh-huh)
    Don't do smack, I do do shrooms, do drink beer (yup)
    I just wanna make a few things clear
    My baby mama's not dead (uh-uhh) she's still alive and bitchin (yup)
    And I don't have herpes, my d-ck's just itchin
    It's not syphilis, and as for being AIDS infested
    I don't know yet, I'm too scared to get tested
    In my mind I'm a fighter, my heart's a lighter
    My soul is the fluid, my flow sparks it right up
    Arsenic writer, author with arthritis
    Carpel tunnel, Marshall will start s----itis
    Hard headed and hot headed, bull headed and pig headed,
    d-ck headed, a prick, a big headache I'm sick
    Quick witted, for every lyric spitted there are 6 critics
    Who wait for me to slip with it so quick
    This dynamite stick buried the wick, it's gonna explode any minute
    Some lunatic lit it and it's not Nelly
    Do not tell me to stop yelling, when I stop selling I quit
    So stop dwelling and I am not failing
    You f---ers are not ready, 'cause I got jelly like (Beyonce's) pot belly
    This is Destiny, yes money I'm off running
    So get off of me, I'm not slowing or softening
    No Apologies verse 1
    White America verse 3
    I'm Shady verse 3

    I'm sorry but "8 mile" is a f---ing anthem

    You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it
    Or see what the big deal is, why it was and it still is
    To be walkin this borderline of Detroit city limits
    It's different, it's a certain significance, a certificate
    Of authenticity, you'd never even see
    But it's everything to me, it's my credibility
    You never seen heard smelled or met a real MC
    Who's incredible upon the same pedestal as me
    But yet I'm still unsigned,havin' a rough time
    Sit on the porch with all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
    Go to work and serve MCs in the lunchline
    But when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines go?
    Who must I show, to bust my flow?
    Where must I go? Who must I know?
    Or am I just another crab in the bucket?
    Cause I ain't havin' no luck with this little Rabbit so f--- it
    Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm startin to doubt s---
    I'm feelin' a little skeptical who I hang out with
    I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about s---
    At the Salvation Army tryin to salvage an outfit
    And it's cold, tryin' to travel this road
    Plus I feel like I'm on stuck in thisbattlin mode
    My defenses are so up, but one thing I don't want
    Is pity from no one,the city is no fun
    There is no sun, and it's so dark
    Sometimes I feel like I'm just bein' pulled apart
    From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
    It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin
    Sometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
    What I'm doin I just blow, my head is a stove top
    I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
    Sometimes my mouth just overloads the a--- that I don't got
    But I've learned, it's time for me to U-turn
    Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
    Ain't no fallin' no next time I meet a new girl
    I can no longer play stupid or be immature
    I got every ingredient, all I need is the courage
    Like I already got the beat, all I need is the words
    Got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
    Suddenly a new burst of energy has occurred
    Time to show these free world leaders the 3 and a third
    I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
    Then I turn and cross over the median curb
    Hit the 'burbs and all you see is a blur from 8 Mile Road

    I always thought Cleaning out my closet third verse was one of his best that come to mind for me. The way he rhymes off that now I'd never diss my own mama to get recognition line for like half the verse is just :clap:

    Now I would never diss my own momma just to get recognition
    Take a second to listen for who you think this record is dissing
    But put yourself in my position; just try to envision
    Witnessing your momma popping prescription pills in the kitchen
    Bitching that someone's always going through her purse and s---'s missing
    Going through public housing systems, victim of Munchhausen's Syndrome
    My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
    'Til I grew up, now I blew up, it makes you sick to ya stomach
    Doesn't it? Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me Ma?
    So you could try to justify the way you treated me Ma?
    But guess what? You're getting older now and it's cold when you're lonely
    And Nathan's growing up so quick he's gonna know that you're phony
    And Hailie's getting so big now; you should see her, she's beautiful
    But you'll never see her - she won't even be at your funeral!
    See what hurts me the most is you won't admit you was wrong
    b---- do your song - keep telling yourself that you was a mom!
    But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get
    You selfish b----; I hope you f---ing burn in h--- for this s---
    Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?
    Well guess what, I am dead - dead to you as can be!

    I can no longer play stupid or be immature

    Rabbit Run -

    Some days I just wanna up and call it quits
    I feel like I'm surrounded by a wall of bricks
    Every time I go to get up I just fall in pits
    My life's like one great big ball of s---!

    If I could just put it all into all I spit
    Instead of always trying swallow it
    Instead of starin' at this wall and s---
    While I sit writer's block, sick of all this s---
    Can't call it s---!

    All I know is I'm about to hit the wall
    If I have to see another one of Mom's alcoholic fits
    This is it, last straw
    That's all, that's it
    I ain't dealin' with another f---in' politic

    I'm like a skillet bubblin', until it filters up
    I'm about to k--- it, I can feel it buildin' up
    Blow this building up, I've been sealed enough
    My cup runneth over, I done filled it up

    The pen explodes and busts, ink spills my guts!
    You think all I do is stand here and feel my nuts
    Well, Imma show you what, You gon' feel my rush
    If you don't feel it, then it must be too real to touch

    Build the dutch, I'm about to tear s--- up
    Goosebumps, Yeah Imma make your hair sit up, Yeah sit up
    Imma tell you who I be, Imma make you hate me, Cause you ain't me

    You wait, it ain't too late to finally see
    What you close-minded f---s were too blind to see
    Whoever finds me is gonna get a finder's fee
    Out this world, ain't no one out their mind as me

    You need peace of mind? Here's a piece of mine
    All I need's a line, but Sometimes I don't always find the words to rhyme
    To express how I'm really feeling at that time, Yes
    Sometimes, Sometimes, Sometimes

    It's just sometimes it's always me
    How dark can these hallways be
    The clock strikes midnight
    1, 2, then half past 3
    This half-assed rhyme, with this half-assed piece of paper

    I'm desperate at my desk
    If I could just get the rest of this s--- off my chest, Again
    Stuck in this slump, Can't think of nothing
    f---, I'm stumped, Oh, Wait, Here comes something, nope!

    It's not good enough, scribble it out
    New pad, crinkle it up, and throw this s--- out
    I'm fizzling out, thought I figured it out
    Ball's in my court but I'm scared to dribble it out

    I'm afraid, but why am I afraid? Why am I a slave
    To this Trade ? Cyanide I spit to the grave
    Real enough to rile you up, Want me to flip it? I can rip it
    any style you want.

    Imma switch hitter b---- Jimmy Smith ain't a quitter
    Imma sit here till I get enough of me to finally hit a f---ing boiling point
    Put some oil in your joints, Flip the coin, b---- come get destroyed

    An MC's worst dream, I make them tensed, they hate me
    See me and shake like a chain-link fence
    By the looks of 'em you would swear that Jaws was coming
    By the screams of 'em you would swear I'm sawing someone

    By the way they runnin', you would swear the law was coming
    It's now or never, and tonight it's all or nothing
    Momma, Jimmy keeps leaving on us, He said he'd be back
    He pinky promised, I don't think he's honest

    I'll be back baby, I just gotta beat this clock
    f--- this clock! Imma make them Eat this watch
    Don't believe me Watch! Imma win this race
    And Imma come back and rub my s--- in your face, b----!

    I found my niche, You gon' hear my voice
    'Til you're SICK of it, you ain't gonna have a choice
    If I gotta scream 'til I have half a lung
    If I have half a chance, I'll grab it, Rabbit Run!

    i liked both post of the deja vu and 8 Mile verse, but when u only can vote once my vote goes to Deja vu. I just had to like the 8 Mile verse cause 1. its a f---ing outstanding verse and 2. i really thought that was gonna be one of the first choices but when it wasnt i was glad when i finally saw that someone mentioned it...on the third page :wth:
    but i have to give my vote to Deja Vu's third verse because everything about it is amazing,so detailed,emotional and "See me and you we almost had the same outcome, Heath" is f---ing goosebump-worthy, such a dark and haunting line

    My Darling - Verse 3

    Doesn't look much on here but the exchanging with his inner voice and content is memorable and a pinnacle point in Eminems career

    "Shady, listen... "SHADY!", you hear that?
    They're screaming for you, I can bring your career back"
    But I don't want it back! "Yes you do..."
    No I don't! "Yes you do, you're gonna regret it later!"
    No I won't! "I'ma get Dre on the phone, I'll just call the doctor"
    Go ahead, I already talked to, Dre yesterday
    "Well I got him on the phone right now!"
    You're lying, "yo slim", HOW, WHY NOW!
    Whatup Dre? "Check this out Slim, I gotta talk to ya
    I don't know, it just seems every since you got off ya
    Drugs, you became a lot softer"
    But Dre, all Shady is is a bottle of hair bleach and vodka
    "Well, just think about it Slim, I'm here
    Just hit me back, and let me know what's up"
    f--- this mirror! AHHHHHHH
    "I'm not in the mirror, I'm inside you, let me guide you"
    f--- you, die you son of a b----
    "Put the gun down", BYE BYE!
    Ok I'm still alive, "So am I too!
    You can't k--- a spirit, even if you tried to
    Haha, you sold your soul to me, need I remind you?
    You remember that night you, prayed to god
    You'd give anything to get a record deal, well Dre signed you
    This is what you wanted your whole life Marshall, right through
    Look at this house, look at these cars, I'm so nice, wooo!
    Oh, but you didn't know, fame has a price too
    That you're just now seeing the downside to
    Lose your best friend from highschool, your wife too
    Ain't even sure if your kids like you
    Come off tour, can't even sleep at night without Nyquill
    Become a valium addict, start a rehab cycle
    But together we can break the cycle
    Marshall..." WHAT! "no one's gonna love you like I do!"
