"The Way I Am" is a song by the rapper
Eminem,
released in 2000.
It was the second single from his worldwide hit album,
The Marshall Mathers LP, which was also released that year. The theme of
the song is that Eminem is tired of being popular, and would like to be left a
little peace and quiet while in public. He also tries to send the message out to
the public that this is how he is no matter what you say he is. The song is in a
dark serious tone, in contrast to the first single "The
Real Slim Shady" which was quite upbeat and making fun of celebrities. The
background of the song features mostly just a drumset, piano, and
chimes.
The song has also been remixed by
Marilyn Manson and Danny Lohner on the special edition of
The Marshall Mathers LP. Marilyn Manson has performed the song with
Eminem on stage.
"The Way I Am" was later released on Eminem's greatest hits album,
Curtain
Call, in 2005.
