Eminem - My Mom (Lyrics)

As the song title suggest, “My Mom” adds in a long line of tracks that show Em’s scorn for his mother, Debbie Mathers. In the song Em elaborates on how his drug habit stemmed from how his mother, bullied and tricked him into taking pills as a child. Despite the harsh accusations, Debbie had time to prepare for them, Em actually did warn her already ten years earlier on “My Name Is.” I told her I’d grow up to be a famous rapper Make a record about doing drugs and name it after her In “Cleanin’ Out My Closet” from The Eminem Show, Em described how his mother’s drug abuse affected him negatively as a kid. In the chorus of “My Mom” he sings: “That’s why I’m on what I’m on ‘cause I’m my mom,” he has now acquired the same habits as his mother, and a later track on Relapse, “Déjà Vu,” elaborates on how his habits affects his own kids.
