 Eminem - the real truth behind the lyrics



Eminem: What does Marshall Mathers believe?    
OK. He's angry. You're angry.
We're all screwed up.
Like the lyrics say - the system stinks.
Maybe you too.
And Eminem, Limp Biskit and Dr Dre are part of it
Just as much as Coca Cola and Microsoft.

The system loves them - yes, Slim Shady too
Just like the Beatles, Stones, Hippies and Punks before.
Make money, redefine, assimilate, move on.
And hate is the other stuff the system feeds on.

Stand up to the system and be crushed
Or change and be assimilated.
Whether you're rich and comfortable
Or poor and desperate.
Hip-hop or banker.
Slim Shady: Citizen Robot 99.

But there is another way.
That the system can't stand, can't assimilate, can't beat.

You'll have to stand much of what you've been taught
- what you think you know -
On its head.
And the world will hate you;
Guaranteed.Grip This

next



Eminem, Marshall Mathers, Slim Shady, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Fred Durst, Dr Dre, Ice Cube, DMX, Ruff Ryders, Linkin Park....
Music, rap and lyrics of anger and loss.
The sound of the lost or trapped.

Extreme River:
Radical perspective on cutting free from oppression and hopelesness.
A different view on the worth of the individual.
On making an end to guilt, shame and anger.
The truth
Alternatives to listening to Eminem.
How to enter the extreme river.


"Our world has slipped its moorings:
our population threatens to overwhelm us;
our waste products are about to smother us;
our modern weapons are capable
of obliterating us.
Because we are incapable of loving and living
for one another,
we are about to be destroyed
by our own self-centeredness
and to turn this beautiful world You have given us
into a wasted and desolate planet.
It all seems so unreal
and I feel so small and insignificant
in such a world."
Leslie Brandt. Psalms Now
