Eminem “Lose yourself” Essay

After analyzing Lose Yourself by Eminem, Ive understood Eminems emotion in this song. He raps about taking a chance at success and being able to take it without anyone stopping him. He also refers to the movie 8 mile, where he failed his first chance and knew that his second opportunity he had to succeed. Analyzing the lyrics, with all the expression he has on him hes starting to lose his desire and momentum of being an artist. At one point he says A normal life is boring, but super stardoms close to post mortem which means that having a normal life is boring, but being a superstar is almost being dead.Eminem feels like being a superstar is a lot of pressure and the expectation levels are very high because you contain to keep producing content that is bigger and better which he said in this sentence It only grows harder, only grows hotter. Hes been through yob clock in his career and tries his best to gain respect from other rappers in the industry. My final thoughts on this analy sis would be that this song is about his tough times and what he goes through in his career and he truly does a great job expressing it in Lose Yourself.Everyone in life goes through tough situations and I can reflect on this when it comes to school grades. As I explained in the following paragraph It only grows harder, only grows hotter means you have to sustain better content for better results is something I can reflect on. Its never easy to get good marks you always need to practice in motivation and dedication to succeed. You need to put in better work and effort to get the results you want which is why Eminems verse in this song reflects me. Overall though, I must say this is one of my favorite songs of all time and it was very interesting to analyze Eminems lyrics.
