So I know you all love to hate Eminem, but try to put that aside for a minute.

I'll let you have a second to do that.

...

We good?

Okay.

So I wrote a remix of Infinite, and I'm welcoming any and all feedback. I want this to be great, so literally anything constructive would help.





LYRICS:

When I was younger
I was scared of thunder
I used to wonder
Where we would slumber
If the world were torn asunder
I watched the lighting bolts crash
The rain was fallin' fast
I thought worst was yet to come
But it had already past
And yeah, the fear was crushing
And yes, the tears were gushing
But it was all for nothin'
'Cause the storm had taught me somethin'
No matter how bad it gets
No matter what they say
What matters more is that it
Doesn't matter anyway
Tomorrow might be brighter
Or darker than today
But at the end of it all
You'll still come out okay
A moment stretched on forever
If you let it
Your best bet is to let it go
And forget it
These momentary plights disappear
In a moment's time
And yes, you WILL survive
That's why I wrote this rhyme
The night is always at it's darkest
Just before the dawn
But sure enough, the sun will rise
And life will carry on; you're infinite

You heard of h---,
Well, there's no need to fear it
There's holy spirits speakin' to you
You just need to hear it
Don't lose your sense of hope,
Your goal is close, you know you're near it
And every hurdle in your way? You know you'll clear it
You're infinite
You heard of h---,
Well, there's no need to fear it
There's holy spirits speakin' to you
You just need to hear it
Don't lose your sense of hope,
Your goal is close, you know you're near it
And every hurdle in your way? You know you'll clear it
You're infinite

When I was younger
I was diagnosed with
A mental issue, now I bet
You wish you upped the dosage
All this medication
My thoughts evaporatin'
Do not address it, just supress it
Dull the abberation
Well, guess what, people
I am no longer feeble
I'm 22, I've risen higher
Than a churches steeple
And I cannot be equaled
It's mind over matter
And that's a fraction of the resction I get
When crowds gather
Just take a lesson from me
Don't let nobody tell you
What you can be, and if they try to
They can go to h--- too
Because you're better than the sum
Of all these broken parts
Get your self together
Try to find the way to heal your heart
Just. Rise. Up.
That's the phrase I follow
'Cause if you wallow
Or sell your sorrow for a bottle
That's the same as givin' up
And then you'll never win
So try again, hit the gas
Take another spin, my friend
Because you're infinite

You heard of h---,
Well, there's no need to fear it
There's holy spirits speakin' to you
You just need to hear it
Don't lose your sense of hope,
Your goal is close, you know you're near it
And every hurdle in your way? You know you'll clear it
You're infinite
You heard of h---,
Well, there's no need to fear it
There's holy spirits speakin' to you
You just need to hear it
Don't lose your sense of hope,
Your goal is close, you know you're near it
And every hurdle in your way? You know you'll clear it
You're infinite

When I was younger
I was bullied daily
I figured maybe if I kept to myself,
No one would hate me
But people thought I was weak
'Cause I was kinda meek
They called me "fa----" and "freak"
But still, I didn't speak
In my spare time, I worked with words
Wrote stories first, worked my way up
Preparing for the worst
But yet, it never came
There wasn't any pain
In fact, the opposite happened
And everything changed
I went from stories to writin' lyrics
From tales of glory,
To 16 bars and bein' fearless
And when I showed the whole school
That Erik Copper rapped
Everybody changed their tune
And began to clap
And as I took my bow
I was reminded how
This year had molded me
This heavy load I shouldered, see
I wanted to fit in and be
Accepted by my peers
But all the sweat and tears
Had changed the goal I had for years
So if you s---t for something
You'd better aim so high
It's like the old saying goes
The limit is the sky
And don't you dare start to cry
If you miss it, just take risk
By the balls and french kiss it
You're infinite

You heard of h---,
Well, there's no need to fear it
There's holy spirits speakin' to you
You just need to hear it
Don't lose your sense of hope,
Your goal is close, you know you're near it
And every hurdle in your way? You know you'll clear it
You're infinite

Not good m8. Impersonating Recovery era Em over Nas wannabe era Em.

 

Jun 25, 2017

Thanks for the comment, but could you elaborate on your first point? I don't really understand how I'm impersonating Recovery-Em.

 

Jun 25, 2017

You must be high af if you think this sounds anything close to Recovery era Em lol

 

Jun 25, 2017

Empty motivational platitudes like Not Afraid

You clearly haven't listened to Recovery. Plus, Copper's direction is a different approach that many artists have taken within a multitude of ways.

 

Jun 25, 2017

I specified which song I'm referring to and how the comparison makes sense. Sorry I upset you, Stanley.

 

Jun 25, 2017

I'm far from a stan my guy. Your comment about copper is just f a l s e and I was just trying to state why. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This production is dope, would be interesting to hear Em go over it now

As i told you before with the original snippet, i really enjoyed it. Lyrics were solid. Keep writing and youll only get better. Keep pushing yourself to get nastier technically until youre at a point where you can experiment with newer flows. The last verse was def a nice touch. Overall i enjoyed this and i would like to see less parodys and more serious s--- like this from now on.
