The Song: Muscle Meets Venom

The new version keeps Cena’s iconic hook — “Your time is up, my time is now” — but layers it with Eminem’s blistering verses.

Cena opens with his gruff delivery, reminding fans that he’s not just an actor or wrestling legend but a rapper at heart:

“Two decades strong, I never tapped out / From the ring to the screen, I mapped my route.”

Eminem storms in, his voice sharp as a blade, tearing into age, critics, and anyone who doubts longevity:

“They said my clock’s broken, career outta place / But I’m timeless — still throwing punches in your face.”

The production blends hard-hitting drums with cinematic horns, echoing the original WWE theme but updated with Dre-style polish and booming stadium energy.

The Music Video: Legacy on Fire

The official video is pure spectacle: Eminem pacing through a darkened Detroit warehouse, Cena in the middle of a wrestling ring surrounded by flashing lights. At the climax, the two stand back-to-back, trading lines as fireworks explode above them — equal parts rap cypher and WrestleMania moment.

Behind the Scenes

Insiders say the collaboration started after Cena guest-starred on a late-night show where he freestyled over an Eminem beat for fun. The clip went viral, and within weeks, Slim Shady had called Cena directly.

A producer involved said: “It’s half nostalgia, half demolition. Eminem and Cena aren’t just rapping — they’re making a statement about staying power.”
