DARKEST HOUR Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, my sweet child
What do you know about fear?
Fear is for the long night
When the sun hides and children are
Born and live and die - All in Darkness
That is the time for fear, my child
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Run, running back
Tell 'em where I'm coming at
I was on that bullshit
Yeah now I'm done with that
Scared of what I didn't want
Scared of what I wanted at
Thought that I was finished
But I hardly had begun in fact
I'm a beast, I'm a monster, a savage
And any other metaphor the culture can imagine
And I got a caption for anybody asking
That is I'm feeling fucking fantastic
Come, come again
Feeling when it's flooding in
Woke up knowing I don't have to be numb again
Starting line, scratch that
I don't have to run again
Giving fucks back
Tell 'em that I'm not coming in
I'm the person on the payroll
And you can't tell me how I should do it
'Cause you say so
But I'm not dancing to the rhythm you replay no
'Cause I'm already half a million miles away no
Oh, my sweet child
What do you know about fear?
Fear is for the long night
When the sun hides and children are
Born and live and die - All in Darkness
That is the time for fear, my child
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Run, running back
Tell 'em where I'm coming at
I was on that bullshit
Yeah now I'm done with that
Scared of what I didn't want
Scared of what I wanted at
Thought that I was finished
But I hardly had begun in fact
I'm a beast, I'm a monster, a savage
And any other metaphor the culture can imagine
And I got a caption for anybody asking
That is I'm feeling fucking fantastic
Come, come again
Feeling when it's flooding in
Woke up knowing I don't have to be numb again
Starting line, scratch that
I don't have to run again
Giving fucks back
Tell 'em that I'm not coming in
I'm the person on the payroll
And you can't tell me how I should do it
'Cause you say so
But I'm not dancing to the rhythm you replay no
'Cause I'm already half a million miles away no
[Pre-Chorus: Eminem]
Somebody better explain
Why my ears are ringing so loud
Someone's got something to say
Grow some balls and say it to my face
[Chorus: Eminem]
Somebody talk to me
Somebody better explain, how my name’s ending up in your mouth
Somebody talk to me
Got 2 seconds to talk, I want some answers right the fuck now
Somebody talk to me
'Cause if it’s me that you’re talking about then I, I wanna know
Somebody talk to me
We're almost past the point of being able to talk this shit out
[Verse 2: Logic]
Feeling this villainous vibe
Chilling with me and my Tribe
Gotta spit this to survive
How long have I been alive?
Twenty-four years and counting not including my momma womb
I'm here in the lab, and I'll be here until the tomb
Album coming soon watch the Rattpack consume
Aye, yo, yeah
I've been on that real shit
That fun shit
Spit artillery, like a gunship
V's up we run shit
Don't come around with that dumb shit it's scandalous
In the studio in Los Angeles
At No I.D. spot hit you with the heat rock, goddamn
You Lumbergh rappers is Initech
Bitch I've been a fact
Hit you like Hiroshima, then intercept
Coming for everybody's Achilles
Put my own money into this album, like half a milli
It's Logic, coming for their neck no disrespect
I did this shit in two minutes or less
Who knows what to expect?
Somebody better explain
Why my ears are ringing so loud
Someone's got something to say
Grow some balls and say it to my face
[Chorus: Eminem]
Somebody talk to me
Somebody better explain, how my name’s ending up in your mouth
Somebody talk to me
Got 2 seconds to talk, I want some answers right the fuck now
Somebody talk to me
'Cause if it’s me that you’re talking about then I, I wanna know
Somebody talk to me
We're almost past the point of being able to talk this shit out
[Verse 2: Logic]
Feeling this villainous vibe
Chilling with me and my Tribe
Gotta spit this to survive
How long have I been alive?
Twenty-four years and counting not including my momma womb
I'm here in the lab, and I'll be here until the tomb
Album coming soon watch the Rattpack consume
Aye, yo, yeah
I've been on that real shit
That fun shit
Spit artillery, like a gunship
V's up we run shit
Don't come around with that dumb shit it's scandalous
In the studio in Los Angeles
At No I.D. spot hit you with the heat rock, goddamn
You Lumbergh rappers is Initech

Put my own money into this album, like half a milli

Somebody talk to me
'Cause if it’s me that you’re talking about then I, I wanna know
Somebody talk to me
We're almost past the point of being able to talk this shit out
[Verse 3: Eminem]
Yeah, this game has got me going crazy
Fuck it, I am crazy, what's new?
What kind of fucking glue you think I’d be if I was glue?
We lost Proof, he was our group's glue but where was you
When we were falling apart? You were shitting on us too
But no one but us knew we were beefing 'cause that's what happens
When you beef with crew, it stays in your crew 'cause it's just crew
But we're back now, yeah, we took our time but in one crew
Only thing we're in a hurry for now is to rush you
And we're back to say shit you don't got the guts or the nuts to
Pussy, go pick your pussy leaves off your cunt tree, fuck you
Achoo, bless you, I’m allergic to pussy
Sluts too, yeah, you think you’re the shit 'til we flush you
Had some bullshit to readjust to
Now there's just a few of us left, but it’d be unjust to rob us our just due
So rest in peace to Bugz and Proof, this one's for you homies, we love you
But we can’t stop now, we'd have too much of our blood drew from this...
Somebody better explain
Why my ears are ringing so loud
Someone's got something to say
Grow some balls and say it to my face
[Chorus: Eminem]
Somebody talk to me
Somebody better explain, how my name’s ending up in your mouth
Somebody talk to me
Got 2 seconds to talk, I want some answers right the fuck now
Somebody talk to me
'Cause if it’s me that you’re talking about then I, I wanna know
Somebody talk to me
We're almost past the point of being able to talk this shit out
[Verse 3: Eminem]
Yeah, this game has got me going crazy
Fuck it, I am crazy, what's new?
