Bad Meets Evil - Take From Me (Feat. Liz Rodriguez)

You're going to be okay, kid, you're going to be okay.

[Intro: Claret Jai]
Is everything not enough?
What more can I give up?
Is there anyone that I can trust?
I give you my all and you still take from me.

[Verse 1: Royce Da 5'9'']
Always been the type of dude that'll feed my clique,
I know that without the fans I ain't shit,
But y'all better read my lips; I don't spit raps this ill
For you to just hack and steal and leak my shit,
So peep my drift,
I hope y'all don't think you're helping me out with that shit,
That shit stressin' me out.
Nickel nine is blowin' up, Christmas time, you should hang my album
On top of your fireplace 'cause around that time, my stockings goin' up.
Feels like a victory, bittersweet,
'Cause the bigger I get, the bigger the wedge between the relationship of me and my bigger bro, hear what I said?
Feels like the shit was wished on me, everything I do for the nigga, and the nigga know,
I would do anything for him, but the nigga refuse to just quit straight shittin' on me.
Keepin' your distance? Probably best if you don't wanna fuck with me,
But you know me probably best, fuck pity, you want that!
You know, it's Laila Ali's chest.
Tough titty the problems, you got a problem?
You think I'm already set
So Imma look down on you?
Just be proud of me, you already got my respect.
I ain't gonna say something I regret so Imma just stop, chasing the pain.
Let you deal with the fact we don't get along cause I got a big face in the game.
Sometimes I feel like fuck my life!
I fuck with a few niggas that I know that
If my chick was a shady ho, niggas wouldn't think twice 'fore they fuck my wife.
Guess, that's the difference in friends and associates,
I done been broke, I done been through the motions.
I don't pay no attention to birds, I use my scope and attend to the vultures.
No one ever blows up your phone just to talk, I don't make money just to loan it to y'all.
Tell a nigga that then you wildin', it's like dialin' 'em and then talking to a hole in the wall.
Please, look at these expenses, these niggas expensive if I gotta lend you money every time.
I see you just to be your friend, bitch; I don't really need your friendship.

[Hook: Claret Jai]
Is everything not enough?
What more can I give up?
Is there anyone that I can trust?
I give you my all and you still take from me.
I give, and I give, and you take, and you take,
And you just walk away without nothing to say...
You just take from me.
You just take from me.

[Verse 2: Eminem]
I live in a bubble, I struggle with the fame,
Trouble is the pain grows double, give a fuck what you say.
When my music you take so subtle, just to give it away
To people who don't even appreciate flows, mothafucka, I'm livid today!
'Cause I break my back to give you my art,
You steal my thoughts, it's like driving a spike through my heart.
You might not think it's that big of a deal to steal from me
But music is all I got aside from my daughters.
Not to sound like a martyr,
But it's getting harder than I thought to not just go crazy,
Trapped in this house, I'm about to just snap.
Am I not deserving of what I got, did I not work for it?
Put it all in every record I record, well, then, please, tell me,
Why on this Earth Lord does it keep happening?
I keep rapping, but I wonder, sometimes is it worth all the bullshit?
'Cause it feels like a down, there ain't no gettin' up from.
But I won't let it get me down, I won't succumb,
I'm anything but glum, so fuck 'em!
They'll appreciate me when I'm gone,
They say, it was ill, right?
The way I kill mics, but the way I feel right now?
It just feels like I'm so done with this shit, I may as well wipe.
I have nothing else to give you, nothing left to contribute.
Farewell, I bid you. But before I go, my last gift to you,
Ladies and gentleman, Slaughterhouse, I give you!

[Hook]
