Kick. A$$.

Here's the lyrics [WARNING: EXPLICIT LYRICS]:

(CORRECTION: Several outlets are reporting that the chorus is sung by Eminem protege Skylar Grey. In fact, it is Liz Rodrigues).

[Intro: Liz Rodrigues]
This is survival of the fittest
This is do or die

[Verse 1: Eminem]
Wasn't ready to be a millionaire, I was ill-prepared
I was prepared to be ill, though, the skill was there
In the beginning, it wasn't 'bout the ends
It was 'bout bustin' raps and standin' for somethin'
Fuck an acronym
Cut the fuckin' act like you're happy, I'm fuckin' back again
With another anthem, why stop when it doesn't have to end?
It ain't over 'til I say it's over - enough when I say enough
Throw me to them wolves and close the gate up up
I'm afraid of what'll happen to them wolves
When the thought of being thrown into an alligator pit, I salivated it
Raise your hands up like it's 12 noon
Nah, homie, hold them bitches straight up
Wait until you dislocate a rotator cuff
Came up rough, came to ruffle feathers
Nah, egos, I ain't deflatin' 'em
Last chance to make this whole stadium erupt

[Hook: Liz]
This is survival of the fittest
This is do or die
This is the winner takes it all
So take it all

[Verse 2: Eminem]
So get your ideas, stack your ammo
But don't come unless you come to battle, jump in the saddle
This is it, it's what you eat, sleep, piss and shit
Lift, breathe, your whole existence just consists of this
Refuse to quit, the fuse is lit, can't diffuse the wick
If I don't do this music shit I lose my shit
Ain't got shit to lose, it's the moment of truth
It's all I know how to do
As soon as I get thrown in the booth, I spit
But my respect is overdue
I'm showin' you the flow no one used
I don't own no diploma for school, I quit!
So there's nothing for me to fall back on, I know no other traits
So you'd better trade your fuckin' mics in for some tool-box-es
Cause you'll never take my pride from me
It’ll have to be pried from me
So pull out your pliers and your screwdrivers

[Outro: Liz]
This is survival of the fittest
This is do or die
This is the winner takes it all
So take it all
So take it all

Early Wednesday, Eminem's official Twitter account posted this exciting message:

@Eminem: "You won't wanna miss the @CallofDuty #GhostsMP event at 10:30am PDT: (link)."

During the press conference, Shady announced that his new album will hit stores sometime this fall (no official release date yet, but still, good enough!).

This is Em's first album since 2010's "Recovery."

Slim Shady fans - rejoice!
