Love the Way You Lie- by Eminem

This song is a true love song. Eminems rapping in the verses may seem just kind of like a story but looking "behind the meaning of the lyrics" will really show you what he's saying.

It's almost like a story of how much she hurts him and lies to his face but his love for her is still strong. She's "the girl" if you know what I mean. Everyone finds that one true someone and they think, "Oh my gosh, i don't care what she or he does to me this is the person i love." Well, you may be thinking, "Um this is eminem the rapper." and yeah, it is.

Sometimes writers write rap songs because its a lot easier to write what they feel into a song. My friend once told me that rapping was just poetry written in anger. :) Which actually seems quite true.

This song is really talking about the battle you have in your love life, the ups and down you go through. Its like a roller coaster ride, and sometimes it never ends. But usually when the word "love" is used everything is worth it.

I just wanted to bring up a funny scenario that pretty much reminds me of this song. When you ever meet a man who has been married for a few years he is always saying how much control his wife has over him. Everyone thinks its the man of the house! In the movie "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" a line was quoted, "The man is the head of the house, but the women is the neck, and she can control the head to wherever she wants it to go." This quote just makes me laugh out loud, i love the fact that in this song Eminem is kind of stating that he's getting dragged around by this girl but he's sticking through with it.

Now i usually have a lesson learned in every song and the lesson in this one is, sometimes we need to stick up for ourselves even in love situations. When we finally or have met the girl or guy of our dreams that we know we will spend the rest of our lives with, treat them as your best friend. Don't treat them as an object just to be used as a device for pleasure or company when your bored, there your soul mate.

So when you find "the one" make sure its the right one...

Love,
Natalie
