While some may claim otherwise, the song "My Fault" is not based on a true story.

"My Fault" was released on February 23, 1999, as part of Eminem's second studio album, The Slim Shady LP.

For the lyrics, see "My Fault" at Genius Lyrics.

Interestingly, the most shocking song of Eminem's career is actually a tribute to his mother.

In "Headlights," from Eminem's album MMLP2, the rapper offers a mature and sincere apology to his mother, Debbie Mathers, from whom he remains estranged.

The title "Headlights" refers to their last meeting. As she drove away, he became fixated on the headlights of her car while coping with feelings of "overwhelming sadness," as he raps.

To learn more facts about the song, visit Rolling Stone.
