Annotations and Meaning.
Violence is often used to express a message, as it attracts news attention. In the Kyle Rittenhouse case, Eminem references the TEC-9, a line of blowback-operated semi-automatic pistols developed by Intratec, an American subsidiary of Swedish firearms manufacturer Interdynamic AB. The TEC-9 was made of inexpensive molded polymers and a mixture of stamped and milled steel parts. The name "JID" drops the places of worship for Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and Christianity, suggesting that no matter what religion one switches to, one cannot escape their sins. The TEC-9 is a 9mm caliber semi-automatic blowback pistol, and its use in Eminem's verses is a reference to his fast chopper style flow. The TEC-9 gun, inspired by rapper TechN9ne, is also known as "Nina." In the case of Kyle Rittenhouse, the case was ruled "self-defense," and Rittenhouse was declared innocent. Eminem's verse emphasizes that if anyone fucks around, their fate will be much like Hutchins and her death, while he will be like Baldwin as the murderer. In conclusion, violence is often used to express messages, and Eminem's use of the TEC-9 and other violent weapons highlights the dangers of fucking around and the consequences of committing crimes. "Fuel" is the eighth track on Eminem's album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce). This collaboration with JID highlights both artists' lyrical abilities and delves into themes of resilience, societal critique, and personal suffering.[Intro]

The chorus depicts Eminem's unwavering determination and worry of running out of fuel. It emphasizes his desire to persevere despite adversity, pushing listeners to ponder what they would do in his absence.[Verse 2: Eminem].
Eminem muses on his career and the criticism he's received. He discusses his partnerships with Dr. Dre and his impact on the rap world. Eminem's smart wordplay and references to cultural and political events demonstrate his sharp intellect and ability to tackle contentious issues. The verse references Biggie, Tupac, and other notable luminaries, emphasizing Eminem's place in the rap pantheon.[Chorus: Eminem].
The chorus repeats, emphasizing the notion of perseverance and the fear of losing momentum. Eminem's unwavering energy and dedication to his profession are clear.[bridge: JID]
JID's bridge adds an element of contemplation, as he considers the repercussions of his choices and the obstacles he encounters. His smooth delivery contrasts with the passion of the words, allowing a chance for reflection.[Verse 3, Eminem]

Fuel by Eminem
Smoking trees, I'm ridin’ 'round
Come to my side of town
Lately, it's been goin’, goin', goin', goin', goin' down (Look, uh, look)
[Verse 1: JID]
All of my niggas gon' ride with it
In the pocket, the rocket like Kelly mom
Mama told me the power was in the tongue
But it probably ain't powerful as a gun
All of you little cowards get devoured, I'm givin’ out flowers to anyone
I ain’t been out the house in a minute 'cause I ain’t wit' it if the money is miniature
I been mindin' my business, I'm business-mindin’
I been spendin' some time with the minister
'Cause them niggas spinnin' sh*t and still sinnin' in the City of God and it's sinister
Try to pray and repent in a synagoguе or a mosque, a temple, a church
Thеm brown skin's seen many niggas hurtin'
And murder's a common courtesy, for certainly
R.I.P. D on the shirt, search, lurk, murk, squirt, durk, first (Forty-eight)
My nigga doin' four plus eight without a court date
Talked the other day, he say he doin' okay
He good, he gainin' weight, then got a sharp shank
He made, he say they played, they gotta partake
Homie got a heart full of hate and a face full of war paint
Eyes all red, full of rage and it's hard to escape from a dark place
East side niggas from the A, niggas all ages
Tryna sell a pound of the dog cage
All the OGs 'round town was our age
Danger, sex, and drugs, X and R rated
Danger, sex, and drugs, sh*t be outrageous
But don't get this sh*t f**ked up, my boy
Ya lucked up once then ya doubled up
I dribble and pass it to the cup and triple-double it
Get to the basket, get the cash and cuddle up
Cover up, bundle up, batter up (Batter up)
Um, talk a lot of smack and now go back it up
Shawty wanna shag, wanna shack it up
I can put a pussy on the platter like a platypus
Nappy hair, nigga, hair natted up
I said, "Barbara," nigga tatted up
I won't argue, nigga mad as f**k
'Cause I ain't compatible, I'm finna catapult
But niggas know it's goin'
Down, down, down, down, do-do-do—
[Chorus: Eminem]
If I run out of fuel
I won't, what the f**k y'all gon' do
If I don't run out of fuel?
Down, down, down, down, do-do-do— (Run out of fuel)
That scares the f**k out of you
[Verse 2: Eminem]
For a couple decades (Brrt)
Been lettin' this TEC spray (Brrt)
From that day that I met Dre (Brrt)
So you liable to catch strays (Brrt)
From the second you press play (What?)
I suggest they (What?)
Do not test like an essay (Why?)
'Cause like when my homies out west, ayy (Yeah)
We can just say (What?)
I'm like a R-A-P-E-R (Yeah)
Got so many S-As (S-As), S-As (Huh)
Wait, he didn't just spell the word, "Rapper" and leave out a P, did he? (Yep)
R.I.P., rest in peace, Biggie
And Pac, both of y'all should be living (Yep)
But I ain't tryna beef with him (Nope)
'Cause he might put a hit on me like Keefe D did him
And that's the only way you're gonna be killing me (Nah)
Ain't gonna be on no beat, silly (Yeah)
I beat the beat silly, on the grind like teeth gritting
Call me, "Obesity" (Why?)
You think it's over? Wait, it's just beginning
Diss me and it ain't gonna be pretty (Nah)
Used to be yea tall then I grew a little each day 'til I became God
Like James Todd, now your arms are too short to beat K-Rod
Indeed, they small like DJ Paul (Woo)
My new Benz better than your truck by far
b**ch, suck my balls
You either smoke crack and you're playin' stick ball in the street
'Cause you must be on base if you thinkin' you can touch my car (Yeah)
But if the whole world was out to get you (What?)
It'd turn you to a powder keg too
Kyle Rittenhouse, spittin' rounds, the TEC shoots (Look out, like, "Brrt")
And that ain't no sound effect (Woo)
Neither was that, SIG Sauer lets loose
I don't condone gun violence at schools (Nah)
But I can't get these voices out my head (Hey, let's go, one, two)
They're putting words in my mouth like alphabet soup
Got the most content on the continent
And constant compliments give me confidence (I'ma)
Across the common sense and incompetence (Uh)
Incognizant, the conflict's are consequence
Of accomplishments that conference through compeitish
If conquered done conked him into unconsciousness
Through conscious, I conjure that
King Kong had just called me, "Kamikaze," I'm gun cocked to this (Woo, my bad)
Nobodies sixteen's are touching
These motherf**kin' index fingers f**kin' the nina
Clutchin' the nine millimeter, tuckin' the heat
Got the toaster like an English muffin
No, I mean, "Toast to" like you drink to somethin'
But it's in a holster, I proceed to bust it
f**k around and get popped like Halyna Hutchins
Like I'm Alec Baldwin, what I mean is buckin' you down, coup de grâce then
Right between the f**kin'
I shoot 'em all in if you think you're f**kin' with me
You're gonna suffer the f**kin' repercussions
The reaper's comin' to heathen and I need it from me
I keep replenishing fuel while the beat I'm punishin'
[Chorus: Eminem]
If I run out of fuel
I won't, what the f**k y'all gon' do
If I don't run out of fuel?
Down, down, down, down, do-do-do— (Run out of fuel)
That scares the f**k out of you
