| Eminem – We As Americans Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The song was on the Encore Bonus Disc but the word "dead" was removed. You can easily find the unedited version where the word "dead" is not removed, the title of the song is just changed to "We Are Americans", it is on the Straight From The Lab bootleg. | |

| Until he can get himself off of drugs because they have such a hold on him. | |

"And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then" Pretty obvious what this line means, he will be loaded off of drugs by then. "I miss the earth so much I miss my wife" He misses not being on drugs, but he is an addict and despite everything he is losing in life he cannot stop abusing drugs. "It's lonely out in space" He cannot spend time with his family because it would be obvious he was on drugs and it is lonely is an addictive state of mind. "On such a timeless flight" His high is limited by the amount of drugs he has, the flight could last forever (until he died) as long as he has the money and connections. “Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home” Touch down is becoming sober again, no longer 'high'. “Oh no no no I'm a rocket man” Sounds like coke addiction to me. “Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone” He is wasting away his life “burning out his fuse” by wasting all of his time using drugs. He can’t do the drugs in front of his family so that is what the “up here alone” is referring to. “Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids In fact it's cold as hell And there's no one there to raise them if you did” Mars is where he is at when he is high and he is saying that when you raise kids while on drugs you aren't really there to raise them. |

I have to agree with the other two posters that have said the song is about drugs and drug addiction. "I bought a ticket to the world, But now I've come back again". A ticket to the world is the drugs, but now I've come back again is him saying his high has warn off. "Why do I find it hard to write the next line, Oh I want the truth to be said" He finds it hard to admit that he is an addict, but he wants the truth to be told. "With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue" Pretty much speaks for itself. He has his drugs again and it thrilled about it. "Dissolve the nerves that have just begun" The drugs are relieving his anxiety. "Listening to Marvin (all night long)" As another person said this shows that this person has an injured soul. His addiction is hurting his soul. |
