Breaking news

Detroit rapper Eminem cancels his sold-out

European tour to check himself into rehab after

Admitting an addiction to sleep medication

We'll have more on this story as it develops

Shady records recording artist Obie Trice

Has apparently survived a gunshot to the head

In what appears to be a random drive-by shooting

Meanwhile Eminem is rumored to be alienated

On again off again relationship with

This just in a tour bus involving Eminem's bus

Updating a story we brought you earlier

About gunfire at an after-hours club

We've learned that the rapper

Proof has been fatally shot

Shady aftermath recording artist

Long-time best friend of Eminem

And a member of the rap group D12

D12 back in the news again today

Is it a sabbatical or the end

The rumors and speculation continue

To swirl around Eminem

He insists he's just taking a break

But doubters believe he's retiring

Leaving us all to ask

Will the real Slim Shady please stand up

So this is it this is what I wished for

Just isn't how I envisioned it

Fame to the point of imprisonment

I just thought the s**t 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 c*****e

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 sewing machine

But I was losing my freedom

There was nowhere 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 three then three

Years later they go back and re-rate it

Then called 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 s**t be Illmatic

And eight years later I'm still at it

Divorced re-married a felon a father

Sleeping pill addict

And this is real talk

I feel like the incredible Hulk

My back has been broke and 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 with it

'Cause it might just come back on you ten-fold

I said 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 with it

'Cause it might just come back on you ten-fold

I got a letter from a fan

That said he's been praying for me

Every day and for some reason

It's been weighing on my mind heavy

'Cause I don't read every letter I get

But something 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 s**t

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 watching it from a 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 s**t

This is like a vibe you get

Go ahead and bop to it

Just watch what you wish for 'cause I got the s**t

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 with it

'Cause it might just come back on you ten-fold

I said 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 with it

'Cause it might just come back on you ten-fold
