D12 - These Drugs Lyrics






[available only on the European "bonus disc" edition]

[Chorus 1]
It's (it's) be (be) cause (cause) of (of)
these drugs I do; that's why I do the things, I do
Be.. cause.. of..
these drugs I do; that's why I do the things, I do

[Eminem - speaking over Chorus 1]
It was like.. whoahh and then the fuckin room started spinnin and shit
And my friend came in he was like, "Yo! Yo! Em! Em!
You puttin that shit up your nose again?"
And I was like, "Naw" nuttin like - everything was just spinnin
I couldn't even see and like, he started to look like a monster n shit
Then I just started laughin and threw up all over the fuckin floor
It's crazy

[Chorus 2 - over last two lines of Chorus 1]
It's because, of these drugs, that I do, that make me
do these things, that I do, do these things, that I do

[Eminem]
My music is therapeutic for whoever's there to use it
It's like, Lucifer's here to influence listeners through it
You probably do what it said to do just from listenin to it
It's got the power to get you to do it (c'mon)
So when the shit comes on, I wanna see some shit jump off
Some bitch get slapped, some motherfuckin kid get stomped
So get this song, go run out and buy this disc
And try this shit, as much coke as I just did
Cause times like these, got me doin lines like these
Plus I grab a pencil every time that I light weed
It's probably because of the drugs Shady does what he does
and is what he is, I'm dizzy Bizzy visit these kids

[Bizarre]
Hey Stephanie (hi!) Let's take some ecstasy (okay!)
Now pull your pants down bitch and have sex with this dog next to me
(huh?) 'Til I'm dead I'm takin blunts to the head
Needles in my broken leg, listen to Grateful Dead
These mescalines got me sure
that I can fuck any whore with genital warts on the Warped Tour
Who slipped this downer in my Snapple?
Cussin out Interscope (Bizarre, you're signed to Capitol!)
Fuck it, I was born with half a brain
Sniffin 'caine, at celebrity basketball games
You motherfuckers think I'm a gimmick
cause I got a Cash Money tattoo and roll with No Limit (UNNNNGGGHHH!)
The last time I sniffed blow
I ended up in Denver, Colorado at an Iggy Pop show
Bizarre be smokin a half a pound
Fuckin the engineer's wife, while he's mixin my song down

[Chorus 1]

[Eminem - speaking over Chorus 1]
It's like, back when I first went on tour
I like, went crazy I was like out of control
And - just was fuckin wasted every night, like
wakin up the next morning like - where the..
Where the fuck am I at, what the fuck is goin on
you see what I'm sayin? I was just like, out of control

[Chorus 2 - over last two lines of Chorus 1]

[Swifty McVay]
These Benadryls got me stiffer than a mannequin
Eight years old swallowin Anacins, standin over my bannister
Laughin with a chromed out caliber (hahahahaha)
The weed that I'm sellin is black look like the back of a tarantula
I keep a substantial amount of aspirins in my Acura
Smashin it, after framin a nigga with smack and dust
I'm scandalous, drugs been ran for months
Crackin capsules to expand our blunts
I rolled it up and take the pressure to the head
Now I'm lookin like a extra on "Night of the Living Dead"
until they find me on a stretcher
I'm quick to sample anything, bitch you got a tester?
This crank'll have me blowin up banks like Uncle Fester

[Proof]
Ahhhh.. watch tonight, you'll admit that I'm a fiend
Pop beans, 'scalines, along with amphetamines
Ghetto kings, meddling with the smell of greens
Got a Jell-o spleen, and see yellow rings (ohhhhhh)
Blue pills, and purple mushrooms
(Hey little girl, you got a curfew, don't you?)
Missin since yesterday, perfect just for rape
See I'm on judgment day, numb from special K
Two tabs of X and vitamin C
Swallow Hennessey along with Tylenol 3
Grindin the teeth at the signs of the E
I lost six days at a time in the week
The crime in the street hold your parents for ransom
while D-12 gang rape Marilyn Manson
In twelve hours we blow a pound of the chronic
Barf at my stomach linin, drown in my vomit

[Chorus 1 - 2.5X]

[Eminem - speaking over Chorus 1]
Cause I like, I always tell people - yknowhatI'msayin like
If you got an addiction, don't admit, to nobody, yknowhatI'msayin?
Keep that shit to yourself; because if anybody sees that, yknahmsayin
when you're out in the public eye and shit
they're always gonna think that you're on that shit even if you're not
That's why I always tell my friends, knowhatI'msayin but
I mean, like for me, I don't give a fuck
I'll probably end up, dyin from this shit one day
Probably pick up a newspaper in the morning and it's like
"Eminem dies from, drug overdose" - youknowhatI'msayin? And
And my friends, they ain't no fuckin better, yknowhatI'msayin?
They ain't nothin but influences, bad influences to me, y'know
It's peer pressure, shit is like all peer pressure
That's what it boils down to - and, I give in to it
So do they..

[Chorus 2 - over last two lines of Chorus 1 - 2x]

    b.... ....

    @Blue oh fuck... what now?

  39. V.... ....

    It sucks that this was only on a special edition cd. I bought D12 cd twice and this song isnt on any. Its not on ITunes either. Smh thank god for YouTube

    V.... ....

    it is a devils night speciel edition

    V.... ....

    In the UK, The album I bought back then came as a 2 CD with the bonus tracks: shit on You - words are weapons - these drugs, It said nothing about a special edition on the box, And it was the only album on sale everywhere I shopped around. After doing a bit of research recently, it looks like the so called "Special edition" was the version the UK had as a standard release, The US didn't have the bonus CD., Very strange considering the US was it's home market? So, Why? And, When did the US get the "Special Edition" released?

  40. I.... ....

    coming here after hearing d12 is over on stepping stones 😢😢

    I.... ....

    it ain't over just cause he said it. promise me. they will be back with another album. It is just about time

  41. B.... F....

    Can't stop loving this shit no matter how much I replay it over and over again aka TINGER

    B.... F....

    same and my favrourite from d12 is swifty mcVay

  42. E.... M....

    "Sniffing cane at celebrity basketball games" lmao bizzare

  43. B.... ....

    Damn, foreshadowed his overdose

  44. H.... M....

    Dark shit I love it. Eminem foreshadowing his own brush with death from a drug overdose

  45. E.... U....

    GOOD BEAT.

  46. l.... w....

    Rip proof

  47. R.... M....

    Proof. God like flow man. Damn no wonder eminem was nevercthe same. Proof made em who he was. Now em has steered in a different direction

    R.... M....

    Proof was ridiculous

  48. L.... ....

    Welp at least I know im not the only one who abused benedryl

    L.... ....

    What that do

    L.... ....

    @yorkinmi98 don't go near it, its not a fun drug

  49. L.... H....

    Man this album is hardcore. I’m a big fan and sometimes I even rewind like “he didn’t just say what I think he did, did he?”

    L.... H....

    still is!! swifty mcvay is my favourite

    L.... H....

    i feel like im the only one who got that the real slim shady reference

    L.... H....

    @Christopher Wieczorek i did to bro, respect!

    L.... H....

    Back when Bizarre was still flowing instead of shock value rapping.

    L.... H....

    And Dr. Dre said?

  50. J.... S....

    Appreciate the Iggy Pop reference

  51. B.... R....

    Eminem the goat

    B.... R....

    Brainz Rooney D12 is

    B.... R....

    Brainz Rooney not just Eminem, you are probably just here for Eminem :((

  52. A.... M....

    still get fucked up to this song!

  53. S.... F....

    Why is this not on the cd?

    S.... F....

    sam farley "These Drugs" was still included as an Limited Edition from their album with the bonus disc. 💽💯

    S.... F....

    because the song is so good that your ear drum would explode

    S.... F....

    I'm quick to sample anything, bitch you got a tester?
    This crank'll have me blowin up banks like Uncle Fester
    Watch tonight, you'll admit that I'm a fiend
    Pop beans, 'scalines, along with amphetamines
    Ghetto kings, meddling with the smell of greens
    Got a Jell-o spleen, and see yellow rings (oh)
    Blue pills, and purple mushrooms
    (Hey little girl, you got a curfew, don't you?)
    Missing since yesterday, perfect just for rape

    Two tabs of X and vitamin see
    Swallow Hennessy along with Tylenol 3
    Grinding the teeth at the signs of the E
