02.Like Toy Soldiers
背景介绍
1.Jay-Zand N.A.S.:Jay-Z和Nas当年的争斗号称世纪大战，双方谁也不肯让谁，在歌中互相对骂；但是最终以Jay-Z在商业上的成功而终结。 
2.Ja Rule：说唱厂牌Murder.Inc旗下的一员，和Eminem，50 Cent，Dr.Dre们有很大的过节，双方曾经一度在歌中，电台，杂志上互相指责，而这首歌中EM说到“I heard him say Hailie’s name on a song and I just lost it”指的是Ja Rule曾经在他的loose change里念道“Em ya claim ya mother’s a crackhead and Kim is a known slut,so what’s Hailie gon’ be when she grows up?” 
3.The Source和Benzino:Source是一本专门的Hip-Hop杂志，而Benzino是The Source杂志的前任CEO，同时也是Ja Rule的好朋友，Made Men说唱团体的成员之一。Benzino在任时，The Source杂志曾经给EMINEM的专辑打了很低的分，而Benzino又宣称EMINEM是"rap hitler"，双方因此积怨。2004年，The Source杂志宣称拥有EMINEM早年未公开的作品母带，歌曲中很明显的表现出EMINEM是个种族歧视者，并准备在下期杂志中随书赠碟，由读者进行评定。EMINEM随即让律师出面通过法庭禁止了这一举措，并同时对当年的那些作品所表现出来的幼稚公开道歉。 
4.Suge:Suge Knight,真名Marion Knight，Death Row Records的创始人，Dr.Dre曾经就是旗下成员。但是后来Dr.Dre发现Death Row Records从事各项非法活动，要求退出Death Row Records。Suge把Dr.Dre踢了出去并找了一大堆帮派分子对Dr.Dre进行骚扰，同时宣布Dr.Dre的所有唱片版权都归他所有，后来Dr.Dre自立门户Aftermath厂牌。EM之所以在歌中滤掉了Suge的名字，是因为他答应了Dr.Dre决不在歌中提到Suge的名字，Dr.Dre也不希望他插手此事，引来麻烦，但是Suge还是不停的叫嚣，甚至骂EMINEM是个种族歧视者。此外，Suge还被认为是指使杀害2Pac的最大嫌疑人。 
5.Runyon Avenue:D12里的Kon Artis和Kuniva创立的厂牌
中英文对照歌词
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
一步接一步，心连着心，左右左
We all fall down… 
我们都倒下了…　　
[Chorus] 
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left 
一步接一步，心连着心，左右左
We all fall down like toy soldiers 
我们都倒下了,像玩具兵一样
Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win 
一点一点地被击垮，我们永远不会胜利
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers

[Verse 1]　　
I’m supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure

Even though I hold the weight of the wholeworld on my shoulders

So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth

And wouldn’t have to worry about one of your people dyin’

But now it’s elevated cuz once you put someone’s kids in it
