“I never intended for my lyrics to be a blueprint for a way of life.”
— Eminem

Simplified Meaning:
A musician is explaining that the words in their songs are not meant to tell people how to live their lives. Think of a singer who writes about their experiences or feelings. These might be sad songs about breakups or happy songs about fun times. The singer is sharing their story, not giving instructions for others to follow step by step. For instance, someone might listen to a song about partying every night, but it doesn’t mean they should go out and party all the time. The singer's aim was to express themselves, not to guide anyone else's actions. Applying this idea to life means enjoying music as art and inspiration, but making personal decisions based on one's own values and needs, not just imitating what’s in a song.
