In 'Isolation at 32', Eminem explores the raw and painful journey of personal failures and toxic relationships. From the struggles of childhood to the reality of adulthood, he reflects on self-isolation and the tough path toward redemption.
Intro:
(Instrumental)
Verse 1:
Yeah, seven years old, I was lost in a maze,
Failures stacking up, like a fire that won't blaze.
Thought I was the king, but I just wore a crown of lies,
Pushing people away, made my heart ice-size.
Shoving everyone aside, I thought I knew it all,
But I'd trip over my pride; watch my back as I fall.
Toxic like a venom, but felt like a disease,
Thought I had control but it was me on my knees.
Hook:
Now I’m isolated, wondering if it’s too late,
Living in this darkness, battling my own fate.
Pushing everyone away, can't escape this state,
At thirty-two, fighting demons, I just can’t relate.
Verse 2:
My twenties were a whirlwind, running from myself,
Chasing after shadows, but just digging my own hell.
Pushing friends away, thinking I’m the one who’s wise,
Should've opened my heart instead of closing my eyes.
Feeling like a ghost in the places I used to roam,
Who could I trust when I’ve built this prison dome?
Fell too many times, cracked too many seams,
At thirty-two now, and I’m searching for dreams.
Hook:
Now I’m isolated, wondering if it’s too late,
Living in this darkness, battling my own fate.
Pushing everyone away, can't escape this state,
At thirty-two, fighting demons, I just can’t relate.
Verse 3:
So here I stand, reflecting on my pain,
Each step forward feels like a fight against the rain.
Thought I’d never change, but here I am faced,
With the remnants of my past in an empty space.
Isolation’s a prison, and I hold the key,
But I'm scared to unlock it, fear's all I see.
Bouncing back's a challenge, but I fight to be free,
At thirty-two I'm learning how to just be me.
Hook:
Now I’m isolated, wondering if it’s too late,
Living in this darkness, battling my own fate.
Pushing everyone away, can't escape this state,
At thirty-two, fighting demons, I just can’t relate.

Theme: (This Rap Song is about: how I've been through too many failures from 7 years old up to 31 years old, how I push people away because I was toxic and thinking that I know
everything. Now as 32 I realize that I'm very isolated and it's very difficult to bounce back and be normal).
