Eminem 2017 BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher Lyrics
On the NFL:
Plus, he gets an enormous reaction
When he attacks the NFL so we focus on that
Instead of talking Puerto Rico or gun reform for Nevada
All these horrible tragedies and he's bored and would rather
Cause a Twitter storm with the Packers
On protests:
Now if you're a black athlete, you're a spoiled little brat for
Tryna use your platform or your stature
To try to give those a voice who don't have one
On Kaepernick:
This is for Colin, ball up a fist!
Twitter reaction to Eminem
