Here it comes... the dreaded finals week. Now, we all know that Slim Shady is pretty good with words, so if we can't relate to it enough already, here are some Eminem song lyrics that are even more relatable when it comes to finals week.
1. Lose Yourself
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface, he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now
The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow!
But in all seriousness...how doesn't this apply to every college student before they take an exam? Knees weak from no sleep, arms heavy... again, from no sleep... and I literally forgot everything that I spent 4 hours studying the night before.
2. Stan
Dear (Professor) Mr. I'm-Too-Good-to-Call-or-Write-My-Fans
This'll be the last package (exam) I ever send your ass.
3. I'm Not Afraid
I'ma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony
Yes, I'm going to be what I set out to be... and tear down my professors' balcony because I know he isn't going to curve this exam.
4. The Way I Am
All this tension dispensing me, sentence is getting it
The stress has been eating me, recently
Off of this chest and I rest to get peacefully
Tension, stress, eating, you name it... I have it or do it. Except for anything peacefully.
5. Beautiful
I think I'm starting to lose my sense of humor
Everything's so tense and gloom
Yeah, these exams are kind of getting the best of me, I haven't slept since last Monday and my coffee is starting to taste like water.
6. Just Lose It
It's Friday and it's my day
Chance to party all the way to Sunday
Maybe 'til Monday, I dunno what day
Everyday's just a holiday
I think this pertains to college in general... I mean just because it's finals week doesn't mean I can't go out, right?
7. The Real Slim Shady
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
No, seriously... where is my professor and what are her office hours?
