[Intro: Mark Avery & Eddie]

Meet Eddie, 23 years old

Fed up with life and the way things are going

(Damn, I'm going fucking insane)

He decides to rob a liquor store

(I gotta take this shit, I can’t take it no more, holmes)

But on his way in, he has a sudden change of heart

(Shit is mine)

And suddenly (I gotta do this)

His conscience comes into play (I gotta do this)

[Verse 1: Dr. Dre, Eminem, & (Eddie)]

Alright, stop (Huh?)

Now before you walk in the door of this liquor store

And try to get money out the drawer

You better think of the consequence (Who are you?)

I'm your mother****** conscience

That's nonsense

Go in, gaffle the money, and run to one of your aunt’s cribs

And borrow a damn dress and one of her blond wigs

(Can I borrow this?)

Tell her you need a place to stay, you'll be safe for days

If you shave your legs with Renee's razor blades

Yeah, but if it all goes through like it's supposed to

The whole neighborhood knows you and they'll expose you

Think about it before you walk in the door first

Look at the store clerk, she's older than George Burns

Bump that, do that sh**, hit that lick

Can you afford to blow this hit? Are you that rich?

Why you care if you scared of death? Are you that chick?

Do you really think she gives a **** if you have kids?

Man, don't do it, it's not worth it to risk it (You’re right)

Not over this slit (Stop)

Drop the biscuit (I will)

Don’t even listen to Slim, yo, he's bad for you

You know what, Dre? I don’t like your attitude

[Chorus: Eminem & Mark Avery]

These voices, these voices, I hear them

And when they talk, I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow, I’ll follow

(All these voices, these voices) Meet Stan, 21 years old

After meeting a young girl at a rave party (I hear them, hear them)

(And when they talk, I'll follow, I'll follow)

Things start getting hot and heavy in an upstairs bedroom

(I'll follow, I'll follow)

Once again, his conscience comes into play (All these)

[Verse 2: Eminem & Dr. Dre]

Now, listen to me, while you're kissin' her cheek

And smearin' her lipstick, slip this in her drink

Now all you gotta do is nibble on this little chicken's earlobe

Yo, this girl's only fifteen years old

How could you take advantage of her? She's passed out

It's easy, just cut these lights out, that's how

Then pick this chicken up, get her off Brad's couch

And leave her on the front porch at her mom and dad's house

Man, ain't you ever seen that one movie Kids?

No, but I seen the porno with Sun Doobiest (Doobiest)

You wanna get hauled off to jail?

Bump that, drop her off, ring the doorbell, then bail

[Chorus: Eminem & Mark Avery]

These voices, these voices, I hear them

And when they talk, I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow

Meet Grady, a 29-year-old construction worker

(All these voices, these voices)

After coming home from a hard day's work (I hear them)

(And when they talk, I'll follow)

He walks in the door of his trailer park home

(I'll follow, I'll follow)

To find his wife in bed with another man (I'll follow all these)

[Verse 3: Dr. Dre & Eminem]

Alright, calm down, relax, start breathin'

Start breathin'? Man, you just caught your wife cheatin'

While you at work, she's with some dude tryna get off

Forget gettin' divorced, cut this chicken's head off

Wait, what if there's a good explanation for this?

What, she tripped, fell, landed on his ****?

Tsh, alright, Shady, maybe he's right, Grady

But think about the baby before you get all crazy

Okay, thought about it? Still wanna grab her?

Kick her our the house, get your daughter and kidnap her?

That's what I did, be smart, don't be a retard

You gonna take advice from somebody who slapped Dee Barnes?

What you say?

What's wrong? Didn't think I'd remember?

I'ma kill you, you lil mothaf-

Uh-uh, temper, temper

Mr. Dre, Mr. N.W.A, Mr. AK

Comin' straight outta Compton, y'all better make way

How in the hell you gonna tell this man not to be violent?

'Cause he don't need to go the same route that I went

Been there, done that

Aw, **** it, what am I sayin'?

Do 'em both, Grady, where's your gun at?
