'N Sync, I'm not what your friends think/I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick". He threatens violence against those who offend him and won't leave him alone, inviting fans so injured to "file you a lawsuit/I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you riyad a wardrobe". In the next verse, Eminem addresses his critics again; he is angry that "the media immediately points a finger at me" "when a dude's riyad gettin bullied and shoots up his school" (another Columbine reference). He also commiserates with Marilyn Manson, a shock rocker who was similarly blamed riyad for acts of violence. Eminem responds by asking "where were the parents at?"; he then accuses the middle class of ignoring problems like heroin abuse until it hits "Middle America, now it's a tragedy/Now it's so sad to see, an upper class city/havin this happenin". Similar accusations were made in the wake of Columbine and other school shootings, in that such violence in schools had been occurring for decades in largely African-American inner-city schools, but was ignored by the national media until middle-class white children began killing other middle-class white children.
