so i changed huh? You got a phone pick it up call me.
How Come.. we dont even talk no more
And you dont even call no more
We dont barely keep in touch at all
and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine.. We even Beefin Now
After all the years we been down.. aint no way no how
This bullshit cant be true
We Family.. aint a damn thing changed.. unless its you!
We were so young
So full of life and vibrance
side by side, wherever you was riding, I went
So close, almost on some bonnie and clyde shit
When Ronnie died you was right by my side
with a shoulder to cry on and tissue to wipe my eyes
and a bucket to catch ever tear I cried inside it.
You even had the same type of childhood I did..
sometimes I just wanna know why is it that you succaim to yours
and mine I survived it. You ran the streets, I 9 to 5ed it
we grew up, grew apart as time went by us..
and I blew up to both yours and mines surprises.
Now I feel a vibe I just cant describe it
much as your pride tries to hide it. you're cold
your touch is just like ice.
And your eyes is a look of resentment.
I can sense it and I dont like it.
How Come.. we dont even talk no more
And you dont even call no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
and I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine.. We even Beefin Now
After all the years we been down.. aint no way no how
This bullshit cant be true
We Family.. aint a damn thing changed.. unless its you!

It was my dream at first to be off spitting a verse
on my own album with a deal but shit got worse
fore I came out I woulda killed a nigga first
for I let him disrespect me, or check me over some
worthless bitch that I wasnt with
I woulda hit it and quit
but you were fitting to talk with her and tell her she was the shit
I told you dont get involved with her
you would smoke in the car with her
coming outta the bar with her
stumbling half drunk
like you were husband and wife or somethin
but me catching her fuckin other niggas musta hurt your pride or something
cause you were openin your mouth to people like you wanted with me.
when all I tried to do was show that your bitch was shifty.
And every sister, fares and all the shit that I produced
you acting like I aint your man and lying like she cant be loose.
But I am really your friend, I'm just trying to tell ya the truth.
Dont hate the game or the player
the one thats changing is you.

Its gets lonely at the top cause my homie had to stop
now we acting like I gotta live only for the block.
And homies in the hood only see me on the tube
So they gossip on the porch
Get ta speaking all rude. fools I used to rap wit all expect magic
like my finger get to snappin
and poof it just happen.
But proof is just acting out the part he was thrown,
shady made it so my babies aint starving at home.
See the devil in your glance,
since the ghetto we been friends, forever real intellegence,
thats forever till the end.
I peep the hatred in your eyes, and the satan in your lies,
aint wasting my time with these snakes in disguise.
(HOW COME) When you talk it's with bitter and spite?
(AND HOW COME) It's my fault for what you did with your life?
And everytime I go to hear you play, you look away,
we barely embrace, you cant even look me in my face.

vocal Yeah I really like this song... first i didn´t knew what is it about but after reading the comments i recognized that it could only be about this hatin´stuff with Royce Da 5"9... Btw. Ems part in this song is the worse (please don´t shoot me for that )
i love this song! i used to sleep with my radio on all night and whenever this song came on i would wake up right away for some odd reason and then i'd write down on a peice of paper what time it came on, then told my friends the next day. they said i was crazy. but i take that as a compliment

vocal i only read tha first page in this thread but some people are some good things some are sayin some stupid things...
first of all em's verse is probably about royce but then again i thought it could have been about Eye Kyu an emcee he was down with on his album Infinite...
second no where in tha video does Proof play a Royce da 5'9" part. he plays himself...
as for tha track its tha fuckin shit eminem danaun and proof all bring out some great shit.
then again eminems verse could also be about the other members of Tha Outsidaz who havn't joined him at Shady records with exception of Young Zee...it's anybodys guess
yo i wanted to reply too a lot of peoples opinions on here but Real_Fan i just had too make reply...
you said...
[i]"a lot of Eminems raps have lines that dont make much since. just souns good"
[b]all eminems verses (and don't say "raps" dude that doesn't make any sense and its wrong use of tha english language its rap as in "rhyme and percusion" you go ahead and say "raps" and you just fuck up tha whole meaning) have meaning problem is sometimes people don't think about tha meaning enough and sometimes they think about it too much.
oh and another thing when you said in tha song Malcolm X royce disses everyone in D12 and eminem that pissed me off...all you have to say is everyone in D12...Eminem is a member of D12 it pisses me off when motha fuckaz have that D12 feat. eminem or Eminem Feat. D12 label on songs or videos cause they're one in tha same.
and another fuckin thing all you people saying "ooooo i love eminem he's great but D12 are just average" or whatever you're fuckin retarted. tha only reason the rest of D12 look average is cause they're right up along side 1 of the greatest emcees of all time second only to 2pac (yea i said it).
even bizarre (who is tha worst emcee in D12) who is tha subject of royce da 5'9" saying he's just a fat stuttering fuck on Malcolm X, is probably on par with tha likes of 50 cent (yea i said that shit) who is all guns a gangstas in every single fuckin song which is good to listen to and shit but where's tha human touch man? at least bizarre knows he's sayin fucked up shit to be funny and create wordplay.

vocal One of my favorites from D12 long with Git Up, Bitch, Girls, Keep Talkin'...etc.
Eminem and Proof were the best in this.
