Walk On Water/stan/love The Way You Lie (snl Medly) Lyrics - Eminem

[Intro: Chance the Rapper] 

Ladies and gentlemen, Eminem 

Walk On Water 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

I walk on water 

But I ain't no Jesus 

I walk on water 

But only when it freezes 

[Verse 1: Eminem] 

Why are expectations so high? Is it the bar I set? 

My arms, I stretch, but I can't reach 

A far cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as 

Soon as I grab, squeeze 

I lose my grip like the flyin' trapeze 

Into the dark I plummet, now the sky's blackening 

I know the mark's high, butter- 

Flies rip apart my stomach 

Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with 

You're gonna harp, gripe, and 

That's a hard Vicodin to swallow, so I scrap these 

As pressure increases like khakis 

I feel the ice cracking, because—

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

I walk on water 

But I ain't no Jesus 

I walk on water 

But only when it freezes 

[Verse 2: Eminem] 

It's the curse of the standard 

That the first of the Mathers discs set 

Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet 

Will this step just be another misstep 

To tarnish whatever the legacy, love or respect 

I've garnered? The rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless 

And it always feels like I'm hittin' the mark 

'Til I go sit in the car, listen and pick it apart 

Like, "This shit is garbage!" 

God's given me all this, still I feel no different regardless 

Kids look to me as a god, this is retarded 

If only they knew, it's a facade and it's exhaustive 

And I try not to listen to nonsense 

But if you bitches are tryin' to strip me of my confidence 

Mission accomplished 

I'm not God-sent, Nas, Rakim, 'Pac, B.I.G., James Todd Smith 

And I'm not Prince, so...

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

I walk on water 

But I ain't no Jesus 

I walk on water 

But only when it freezes 

[Post-Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

'Cause I'm only human, just like you 

Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew 

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do 

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh 

[Verse 3: Eminem] 

It's true, I'm a Rubik's — a beautiful mess 

At times juvenile, yes, I goof and I jest 

A flawed human, I guess 

But I'm doin' my best to not ruin your ex- 

Pectations and meet 'em, but first 

The "Speedom" verse, now Big Sean 

He's goin' too fast, is he gonna shout or curse out his mom? 

There was a time I had the world by the balls, eatin' out my palm 

Every album song I was spazzin' the fuck out on 

And now I'm gettin' clowned and frowned on 

But the only one who's looking down on 

Me that matters now's DeShaun 

Am I lucky to be around this long? 

Begs the question though 

Especially after the methadone 

As yesterday fades and the Dresden home 

Is burnt to the ground, and all that's left of my house is lawn 

The crowds are gone 

And it's time to wash out the blonde 

Sales decline, the curtain's drawn 

They're closin' the set, I'm still pokin' my head from out behind 

And everyone who has doubt, remind 

Now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a thousand times 

Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares or gives a fuck about your rhymes 

And as I grow outta sight, outta mind, I might go outta mine 

'Cause how do I ever let this mic go without a fight 

When I made a fuckin' tightrope outta twine? 

But when I do fall from these heights though, I'll be fine 

I won't pout or cry or spiral down or whine 

But I'll decide if it's my final bow this time around, 'cause— 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

I walk on water 

But I ain't no Jesus 

I walk on water 

But only when it freezes 

[Post-Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

'Cause I'm only human, just like you 

I've been making my mistakes, oh if you only knew 

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do 

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh 

If I walked on water, I would drown 

[Outro: Eminem] 

'Cause I'm just a man 

But as long as I got a mic, I'm godlike 

So me and you are not alike 

Bitch, I wrote "Stan" 

Stan 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

My tea's gone cold 

I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all 

The morning rain clouds up my window 

And I can't see at all 

And even if I could it'd all be gray 

But your picture on my wall 

It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad 

[Verse 1: Eminem (as Stan)] 

Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin' 

I left my cell, my pager and my home phone at the bottom 

I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not've got 'em 

There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin' 

Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em 

But anyways, fuck it, what's been up, man? How's your daughter? 

My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father 

If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her? 

I'ma name her Bonnie 

I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry 

I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him 

I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan 

I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam 

I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man 

I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was phat 

Anyways, I hope you get this, man, hit me back 

Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

My tea's gone cold 

I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all 

The morning rain clouds up my window 

And I can't see at all 

And even if I could it'd all be gray 

But your picture on my wall 

It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad 

Love the Way You Lie 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn 

Well, that's all right 

Because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well, that's all right 

Because I love the way you lie 

I love the way you lie 

[Verse 1: Eminem] 

I can't tell you what it really is 

I can only tell you what it feels like 

And right now there's a steel knife in my windpipe 

I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight 

As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight 

High off her love, drunk from her hate 

It's like I'm huffin' paint 

And I love her the more I suffer, I suffocate 

And right before I'm about to drown she resuscitates me 

She fuckin' hates me, and I love it, "Wait! 

Where you going?", "I'm leaving you." "No, you ain't 

Come back!" We're runnin' right back, here we go again 

It's so insane, 'cause when it's goin' good it's goin' great 

I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane 

But when it's bad it's awful, I feel so ashamed 

I snap, "Who's that dude?", I don't even know his name 

I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again 

I guess I don't know my own strength 

[Chorus: Skylar Grey] 

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn 

Well, that's all right 

Because I like the way it hurts 

Just gonna stand there and hear me cry 

Well, that's all right 

Because I love the way you lie 

I love the way you lie 

I love the way you lie
