Mosh [French translation]

[Intro: Kids' voices + Eminem]

I pledge allegiance to the flag

Of the United States of America

And to the republic for which it stands

People!

One nation, under God, indivisible

It feels so good to be back!

With liberty and justice for all

Mosh with me now!

[Verse 1]

Scrutinize every word, memorize every line

I spit it once, refuel, re-energize, and rewind

I give sight to the blind, my insight through the mind

I exercise my right to express when I feel it's time

It's just all in your mind, what you interpret it as

I say to fight and you take it as "I'ma whip someone's ass"

If you don't understand, don't even bother to ask

A father who has grown up with a fatherless past

Who has blown up now to rap phenomenon that has

Or at least shows no difficulty multi-taskin'

And juggling both, perhaps mastered his craft slash

Entrepreneur, who's helped launch a few more rap acts

Who's had a few obstacles thrown his way through the last half

Of his career, typical manure, moving past that

Mr. Kiss-His-Ass-Crack, he's a class act

Rubberband Man – yeah, he just snaps back

[Hook]

Come along, follow me

As I lead through the darkness

As I provide just enough spark that we need

To proceed, carry on, give me hope

Give me strength, come with me

And I won't steer you wrong

Put your faith and your trust

As I guide us through the fog

To the light at the end of the tunnel

We gon' fight, we gon' charge, we gon' stomp

We gon' march through the swamp

We gon' mosh through the marsh

Take us right through the doors, come on!

[Verse 2]

All the people up top, on the side and the middle

Come together, let's all form and swarm just a little

Just let it gradually build from the front to the back

All you can see is a sea of people, some white and some black

Don't matter what color, all that matters we're gathered together

To celebrate for the same cause, no matter the weather

If it rains, let it rain – yeah, the wetter the better

They ain't gon' stop us, they can't

We're stronger now more than ever

They tell us "No!" we say "Yeah!" They tell us "Stop!" we say "Go!"

Rebel with a rebel yell, raise hell, we gon' let 'em know

Stomp, push shove, mush; fuck Bush!

Until they bring our troops home, come on, just—

[Hook]

Come along, follow me

As I lead through the darkness

As I provide just enough spark that we need

To proceed, carry on, give me hope

Give me strength, come with me

And I won't steer you wrong

Put your faith and your trust

As I guide us through the fog

To the light at the end of the tunnel

We gon' fight, we gon' charge, we gon' stomp

We gon' march through the swamp

We gon' mosh through the marsh

Take us right through the doors, come on!

[Verse 3]

Imagine it pourin', just rainin' down on us

Mosh pits outside the Oval Office

Someone's tryin' to tell us somethin', maybe this is God just

Sayin' we're responsible for this monster, this coward

That we have empowered, this is Bin Laden

Look at his head noddin', how could we allow

Somethin' like this without pumpin' our fists? Now

This is our final hour

Let me be the voice and your strength and your choice

Let me simplify the rhyme just to amplify the noise

Try to amplify it, times-it, and multiply it by six

-teen million people, all equal at this high pitch

Maybe we can reach Al-Qaeda through my speech

Let the President answer a higher anarchy

Strap him with an AK-47, let him go

Fight his own war, let him impress Daddy that way

No more blood for oil, we got our own battles

To fight on our own soil, no more psychological warfare

To trick us to thinkin' that we ain't loyal

If we don't serve our own country

We're patronizin' a hero; look in his eyes, it's all lies

The stars and stripes have been swiped, washed out and wiped

And replaced with his own face, mosh now or die

If I get sniped tonight, you'll know why—‘cause I told you to fight!

[Hook]

Come along, follow me

As I lead through the darkness

As I provide just enough spark that we need

To proceed, carry on, give me hope

Give me strength, come with me

And I won't steer you wrong

Put your faith and your trust

As I guide us through the fog

To the light at the end of the tunnel

We gon' fight, we gon' charge, we gon' stomp

We gon' march through the swamp

We gon' mosh through the marsh

Take us right through the doors, come on!

[Outro]

And as we proceed

To mosh through this desert storm

And these closing statements

If they should argue, let us beg to differ

As we set aside our differences

And assemble our own army

To disarm this weapon of mass destruction

That we call our President, for the present

And mosh for the future of our next generation

To speak and be heard

Mr. President! Mr. Senator!
