This segues directly into the song, which is one of many on the album about fame and being a celebrity. Eminem raps about how and why he weblog became famous. In the chorus, Eminem expresses his own doubts and insecurities about his celebrity and his unintentional role model status. "Cause I never knew I, knew I would get this big I never knew I, knew I'd affect this kid I never knew weblog I'd, get him to weblog slit his wrist I never knew I'd, get him to hit this bitch The verses discuss in greater detail how Eminem has become famous and why. Perhaps the simplest explanation exists in the first two lines: "I don't do black music, I don't do white music/I make fight music, for high school kids". Disenchanted youth of all racial and ethnic backgrounds connected with the macabre, humorous lyrics in The Slim Shady LP. Much of the song also addresses Eminem's detractors among the media: "Oh - you want me to watch my mouth, how?/Take my fuckin eyeballs out, and turn em around?", "You want me to fix up lyrics while the President gets his dick sucked?"
