What are the lyrics to Eminem's Guilty Conscience 2?

Here are the full lyrics to Eminem's Guilty Conscience 2:

[Intro: Eminem & Slim Shady]

Welp, we did it now

I know right

It's beautiful ain't it?

Yeah, you happy now, b*tch?

Yep

Alright, you got what you wanted

Yeah, what?

Let me go

Ha, never

[Verse: Eminem & Slim Shady]

Why does it feel like I'm always being tortured?

The bad apple spoils the whole orchard

Used to read comic books to learn more words

'Cause deep down I'm a dork, just a core nerd

Meaning nerd to the core 'til I'm cornered

Then I'm the coroner

What shot is this? First, second, it's your third

Vision is more blurred

Speech is more slurred

Can't even form words

It's likе a dream up inside of a dream

I'm trappеd and it's worse than I could've imagined, it's madness

Can't wake up, try my damnedest, but old habits are coming back

And now transgenders attack us, frontwards and backwards

They laughin', throwin m*dgets at us (Ha)

This ain't no dream now, huh? See what I mean now?

You see how they tryna make me out to be some kind of mean vile obscene, foul prick

I kick one freestyle 'bout beating down a special needs child and these people freak out

Told you we'd get slaughtered for saying "R*tarded"

Aw, Marshall's gaining a conscience (F*ck you)

F*ck, this may come as a shock

I have you astonished regardless

Here's the thing about r*tarded people

What?

They don't f*cking know they're r***rded

Well, okay, you wanna fat shame, b*tch

Two can play that game (What?)

You wanna judge people? (Yeah)

Matter of fact, ain't you the same one who hated bullies calling you bad names? (Yep)

Then you turn around and did the exact same (So?)

Just immature and literally

You're still mentally

Thirteen and still thirsty for some controversy

You still picking on Christopher Reeves

Yeah, but you're me

And we're a team

So that means, we're in cahoots

That's conspiracy to commit murder lyrically

So clearly, you're the accessory like jewelry

You ain't the judge or the jury, you're just as guilty

You rip on paraplegics, man, seriously?

Oh, b*ch, it's a joke

No, it's not, it's embarrassing (What?)

Like David Carradine found with a pair of jeans at his ankles and belt 'round his larynx

I know, it's a scary scene

They're coming with everything

Little people are trolling me (Ha)

They saying they've had it (What?) up to here with me

Oh, hilarity (Come on)

Nah, do your thing

F*ck deaf people, yeah

Well, between me and you

I've think they've had it up to here with me too (What the f*ck?)

Sorry I'm not perfect as you, Marshall

Punching down on little people (Yeah), not cool (Whoops)

You just sound like a d*ck, wait, nah, fool (What?)

When I say, "F*ck midgets," I mean Ja Rule (Oh)

And I know that Chris Reeves song was recorded in 2004 for Encore (Yeah)

F*ck'd you take it off for?

'Cause he died, man, that mother*cker did that bullsh*t on purpose to ruin the song for us (Man)

Man, I never seen a bigger p*ssy than you

B*tch, look at all the sh*t the media's puttin' me through (What?)

'Cause of all the f*ck sh*t that you pushed me to do (Me?)

Should've knew when I found you, you were just too good to be true (Hmm)

That's how we end up in these quagmires

You said you had my back, liar

But I helped you get your stacks higher (Yeah)

That's diamond sales like sapphires

Rap buyers, admires pack lines of admirers

Now they say you lack ire

That's why your satire backfires (Yeah)

Flat tires, no longer that guy you were prior to this

Yeah, and I scare you 'cause (Why?) I'm who you used to be (Who?)

The you who didn't crumble under the scrutiny (Wait, what?)

When it was you and me (Yeah)

I gave you power to use me as an excuse to be evil (I know)

You created me to say everything you didn't have the balls to say (Yep)

What you were thinking but in a more diabolic way

You fed me pills and a bottle of alcohol a day (Okay)

Made me too strong for you and lost control of me (You're right)

I took over you totally

You were socially awkward 'til you molded me (Yeah)

You was a loner and nobody

'Cause of me, you didn't take sh*t from nobody

Now look at you (What?)

Now you just a punk (Man), little scaredy cat (Word)

Got you shook like Shakira's a** (Yeah)

To look at your reflection staring back, b*tch

It's just a mirror, relax

Man, you're so full of sh*t, you need MiraLAX

Open your mouth and sh*t flies out, just lies

You thinkin' you can rip my a**, undo these zipties

You can just undo my feet and keep my hands tied

'Cause like an avalanche, I'd still win by a landside

Oh, you think so, b*tch? Yeah, I know so

Okay, your hands and feet, I let 'em both go

Yeah, f*ck now, ho, give me that gun, no, don't

Rear naked choke hold, let me go, yo

Here, take it, bozo (Yeah)

Weird bait, you homo (You ready?)

No, don't shoot (Here we go)

Bro, no, no

Now say you're sorry and you didn't mean any of it

I'm sorry Marshall's a p*ssy, he's Dre and Jimmy's puppet (What?)

Sorry he gives a f***, but pretends he doesn't

God, you piece of sh*t, that does it (Uh-oh, wait)

Yeah, b*tch, this is for him (What?)

Christopher, MGK, Nick, and for Limp Bizkit and them

Midgets and Ben— (Man, please)

'Zino, in addition to him

Will Smith and to Canibus, if you're listening, this is the end (Okay, okay, I'll stop)

So to Jamar and Ja Rule and to all

My feuds including ma (What?)

I'm welcoming you to my (No, no)

Last hoorah, I bid you goodbye (Come on, man, don't do this)

Murder suicide

Killshot, booyaka, c*ck sucker

Coup de grâce, mother*cker

[Outro: Eminem & Paul Rosenberg]

Oh, what the f*ck?

Come on, come on, come on, come on

Yeah?

Paul

You're not gonna f*cking believe this, bro

I had this dream, it was f*cking crazy

It was like, the old me came back and the new me

And took over my brain and had me saying all this f*cked up sh*t

About little people and Caitlyn Jenner and

PC police were chasing me

And f*cking Gen Z was tryna kill me

And quadriplegics

And Christopher Reeves

And I was saying all this f*cked up sh*t

And I couldn't stop saying it

And then I wake and it was like I was still dreaming

F*ck you

Wait

Haha
