A lot of people ask me.. stupid fuckin questions
A lot of people think that.. what I say on records
or what I talk about on a record, that I actually do in real life
or that I believe in it
Or if I say that, I wanna kill somebody, that..

Basically, eminem was fed up with people taking stuff seriously,when he threatens to kill people on record,so this is basically another way of scaring those people again,and a song which lets those people know that he has balls to say what's on his mind.

The entire song is completely sarcastic except for the introduction speech. He hates how people are so stupid to believe everything he says and how they hate him for the things he raps about. His point is that his rap doesn’t reflect him as a person and he doesn’t mean half the things he raps about.

I Believe that this rap has more of a meaning to it, i believe that eminem thinks people are gullible and believe everything they hear. And he thinks that if you believe that then you believe he's a criminal. In Other Words He Will Say What He Wants And Doesnt Care What People Think. I Love Eminem And Have Grew Up Listening To Him He Is A Legend Amongst Rappers And To Me Is A Inspiration.
