Headlights Lyrics » Eminem
[Intro: Nate Ruess]
Mom, I know I let you down
And though you say the days are happy
Why is the power off and I’m fucked up?
And, Mom, I know he’s not around
But don’t you place the blame on me
As you pour yourself another drink, yeah
[Chorus: Nate Ruess]
I guess we are who we are
Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
Maybe we took this too far
[Verse 1: Eminem]
I went in headfirst, never thinkin’ about who what I said hurt
In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst
The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are, did I take it too far?
“Cleanin’ Out My Closet” and all them other songs
But regardless, I don’t hate you ‘cause, Ma
You’re still beautiful to me, ‘cause you’re my mom
Though far be it from you to be calm
Our house was Vietnam, Desert Storm
And both of us put together could form an atomic bomb
Equivalent to chemical warfare
And forever we could drag this on and on
But agree to disagree, that gift for me
Up under the Christmas tree don’t mean shit to me
You’re kickin’ me out? It’s fifteen degrees
And it’s Christmas Eve, “Little prick, just leave!”
Ma, let me grab my fucking coat!
Anything to have each other’s goats
Why we always at each other’s throats?
Especially when Dad, he fucked us both
We’re in the same fuckin’ boat
You’d think that’d make us close (Nope)
Further away it drove us, but together,
headlights shine
And a car full of belongings, still got a ways to go
Back to grandma’s house, it’s straight up the road
And I was the man of the house, the oldest
So my shoulders carried the weight of the load
Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight-years-old
And that’s when I realized you were sick
And it wasn’t fixable or changeable
And to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though, but—

About Eminem’s Headlights from The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (Deluxe Edition) (2013)
Over
a beat based on “Mother” by John Lennon
, Eminem issues a public apology to his mom on “Headlights”. Eminem and his mother have never really gotten along, as she has been a target of hateful lyrics in songs like
“Cleanin’ Out my Closet”
(2002) and
“My Mom”
(2009). After years of vitriol, Em now raps with a more mature perspective and expresses remorse and even
apologizes
for the songs attacking her.
Above is a paper containing some of the lyrics from the second verse, from the music video.
