Trainwrecks, sidewalks

Payless, high-tops (Uh)

K-Fed, iHop

Playtex, icebox (Yeah)

[Chorus: Eminem]

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Woah)

Up on this mic when we're on it (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Woo)

That's how much we have in common^✦

We are not alike,^✦ there's^✦ nada^✦ like us—

[Verse 2: Eminem]

You say you affiliated^✦ with murderous killers (Ayy)

The people you run with are thuggin' (Gang)

But you just a wannabe gunner^✦ (Gang)

Like you was gonna^✦ do somethin'

Actin'^✦ like you catchin' bodies^✦ (Ayy)

And you got juice, lil' youngin', you buggin'^✦

You ain't never^✦ even^✦ been charged in connection with battery^✦

Bitch, you ain't plugged^✦ into^✦ nothin'^✦ (Ah)

Rap God spit lyrical^✦ bullets (Pew)

And gat's cocked,^✦ your partners better^✦ tool up

This has not to do with muscular

But have guns for sure, you better^✦ put a

Strap on, other^✦ words if you're gonna^✦

Roll up with your (Gang), you gon' need an arsenal

'Cause this bar is over^✦ your head

So you better^✦ have arms if you're gonna^✦ pull up (Skrrt)

Oh, you run the streets, huh?

Now you wanna^✦ come and fuck with me, huh?

This little cocksucker, he must be feelin'^✦ himself

He wants to keep up his tough demeanour

So he does a feature, decides to team up with N9na (Yeah)

But next time you don't gotta^✦ use Tech N9ne

If you wanna^✦ come at me with a sub, Machine Gun

[Part II]

[Verse: Eminem]

And I'm talkin'^✦ to you

But you already know who the fuck you are, Kelly^✦

I don't use sublims and sure as fuck don't sneak-diss

But keep commenting on my daughter Hailie

I keep on telling motherfuckers but, just in case you forgot^✦ really^✦

And need Ja memories jarred^✦ like strawberry or pineapple apricot jelly^✦

I respond rarely,^✦ but this time Shady^✦ 'bout to sound off

Like a fuckin'^✦ cocked^✦ semi-Glock Demigod

Let me put a fuckin'^✦ silencer on this little

Non-threatening blond fairy^✦ cornball takin'^✦ shots at me

You're not ready,^✦ fool, break yourself like Rock Steady^✦ Crew

Obviously, I'm not getting through

We can get it poppin'^✦ like Redenbach, lettin'^✦ off like Remy^✦ Ma

Heavy^✦ artille—ry^✦ (Yeah, uh), Godzilla harsh with a hard shell

With a motherfucking heart bigger^✦ than Bizarre's belly^✦

Only^✦ time you'll ever^✦ say I lost

You'll be talkin'^✦ 'bout Fetty^✦ Wap, better^✦ call Diddy^✦

Just to try to get me off of ya, better^✦ hope I don't call Trick Trick

Bitch, this shit don't fly in our city^✦

Punk, you don't disrespect OGs, R.I.P. Prodigy

Sold Dre my soul and then told him the moment he signed^✦ me

That I'd be the most hated,^✦ though made it

So that there's^✦ no shame, it's okay^✦ to own it

'Cause life is a bitch, she's a bow-legged ho

But now those days are over^✦

I Harvey^✦ Weinstein a bathrobe hangin'^✦ open^✦

My code name is groper,^✦ I role play with lotion^✦

I fuck the whole world then I throw 'way the Trojan^✦

Old lederhosen with home-made explosives

I'll blow eighty^✦ holes^✦ in you

Don't make me go in, I OJ the flows

And I'm insult to injury,^✦ Rolaids to Goldman

I'm throat spray and Motrin,^✦ I throated^✦ Nicole^✦

As they both there to choke and my whole blade is soakin'^✦

A double-edge sword, it cuts both ways, I poke and

I stick and I turn in a rotating motion^✦

Invisible^✦ with the pen, I'm at the pinnacle of sick individuals

Stick my dick and put the tip in at minimum

I'm fuckin'^✦ these syllables, I let 'em lick on my genitals

I'm a fuckin'^✦ invincible,^✦ indefensible,^✦ despicable,^✦ difficult prick

A little bit unpredictable,^✦ I spit the formidable^✦

That you bitches fuckin'^✦ with, the original

I consider me and Nickel identical^✦ ('Dentical)^✦

But not us, the only^✦ thing we have in common's I'm a dick and you suck

Otherwise one has nothin'^✦ to do with the other^✦

None come close to skunk, bug, soldier

Tongue, shrub, shoulder, one month older^✦

Sponge, mug, folder,^✦ nun, rug, holster

Lug nut, coaster,^✦ lung, jug, roaster^✦

Young Thug poster,^✦ unplugged^✦ toaster^✦ (Yeah)

[Chorus: Eminem]

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Woah)

Up on this mic when we're on it (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Yeah)

That's how much we have in common^✦ (Woo)

That's how much we have in common^✦

We are not alike,^✦ there's^✦ nada^✦ like us—

[Outro: Eminem]

Critic Analysis

RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

The verse utilizes a rigid, percussive AAAA rhyme scheme to emphasize a lack of commonality, transitioning from repetitive linguistic puns to a direct, aggressive lyrical assault.

Rhyme Architecture: The pre-chorus employs a dense, repetitive multisyllabic rhyme scheme based on identical vowel sounds ('ai-eh'), creating a mechanical, robotic rhythm that contrasts with the conversational flow of the verse.

"May-back, Maybach"

① The phonetic sound of a person named 'May' moving backward.② The luxury vehicle brand, referencing status and wealth.

"Payless, high-tops"

① A lack of financial worth or status.② A direct reference to the discount retailer Payless ShoeSource, juxtaposed with the fashion item high-top sneakers.
