Owed to Eminem
by June Jordan

I'm the Slim Lady the real Slim Lady
the real Slim Lady just a little ole lady
uh-huh
uh-huh
I'm Slim Lady the real Slim Lady
all them other age ladies
just tryin to page me
but I'm Slim Lady the real Slim Lady
and I will
stand up
I will stand up

I assume that you fume while the
dollar bills bloom
and you magnify scum while the
critics stay mum
and you anguish and languish runnin
straight to the bank
and you schemem and you team with
false balls so you rank
at the top and you pop like the jury the
victim
the judge

but the ghetto don't trip to the light
stuff you flip
or the chain saw you skip
with
the rope and the knives and that bunk
about tying who up like a punk in the
back of the trunk
or that dope about mothers and wives
give you worse than a funeral hearse
fulla
hickies and hives
you fudge
where you come from or whether you
mean it
the shit you can't make without
sycophants see'n it
but nobody's dumb
enough to believe that you grieve
because folks
can't conceive that you more than a
moron
or why would you whore on
the hole in your sole?

At this stage of my rage
I'm a sage so I know how you blow
to the left then the right and you maim
every Columbine game about "No!
Cuz he's white!"

But I am that I am
and I don't give a damn
and you mess with my jam
and I'll kill you
I will!

And if you insist listenin close for a dis
then you missin more than the gist in
this
because
I gotcha pose by the nose

I hear how you laugh and cut corners
in half
And I see you wigglin a line that's not
flat
while you screwin around with more
than all that

But I am that I am
and I don't give a damn
and you mess with my jam
and I'll kill you
I will!

Don't tell me you pissed or who's
slashin whose wrists
or pretend about risks
to a blond millionaire
with a bodyguard crew that prey
behind shades and that pay
to get laid - What?
What's that about fair?

I'm not through with you!

I'm the bitch in the bedroom the
faggot
you chump I'm the nigga for real so get
ready to deal
I'm tired of wiggas that whine as they
squeal
About bitches and faggots and little
girls too!
I'm a Arab I'm a Muslim I'm a
Orthodox Jew!

I'm the bitch come to take you
I'm the faggot to fake you
outta the closet
outta the closet
fulla the slime you deposit

for fun

rhyme and run
you the number one
phony-ass gun

Oh! I am that I am
and I don't give a damn
but you mess with my jam
and I'll kill you
I will!

(Hey, Shady
you know what I'm sayin
I'm just playin!
You know I love you!)

Sincerely,

Slim Lady
