How Come - Who had the best verse?

[Chorus:]
How come, we don't even talk no mo',
And you don't even call no mo',
We don't barely keep in touch at all,
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no mo',
And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin' now,
After all the years we've been down,
Ain't no way, no how,
This bullshit can't be true,
We family, aint a damn thing change unless it's you


[Eminem]
We were so young,
So full of life and vivrance,
Side by side wherever you was ridin', I went,
So close or most us some Bonnie and Clyde shit,
When Ronnie died you was right by my side,
With a shoulder to cry on and a tissue to wipe my eyes,
And a bucket to catch every tear I cried inside it,
You even had the same type of childhood I did,
Sometimes I just wanna know why,
Is it that you sur-came to yours,
And mine I survived it,
You ran the streets I nine to fived it,
We grew up, grew apart this time went by us,
Then I blew up to both yours and mine surprises,
Now I feel the vibe I just cant describe it,
Much as your pride tries to hide it,
You're cold your touch is just like ice,
And your eyes is the look of resentment,
I can sense it and I don't like it

vs.

Proof

We gettin lonely at the top
cuz my homie had to stop
now we actin like i gotta live only for the block
and homies in the hood only see me on the tube
so they gossip on the porch, get ta speakin all rude
fools i used to rap with, all expect magic
like my finger get ta snappin and *poof* it just happen
but Proof its just actin, at the party were stoned
shady made it so my babys aint starvin at home
see the devil in your grin, since the ghetto we been friends
forever, real intelegience, thats forever till the end
I peep the hatred in your eyes and the Satan in your lie
aint wastin my time with these snakes in disguise
(How come) when you talk its with bitter respite
(And how come) its my fault for what you did with your life
and every time i go to hear you and play you look away
we barely embrace, you cant even look me in my face


So who had the better verse in your opinion? I don't like the way Eminem delivered it, Proof's delivery was flawless. Particularly the end, I'd have to side with Proof. Proof out shined Em on this.

Eminem but only because of the hook, that is probably one his best hooks ever... but verse wise i think proof took it, cause eminem seemed like he was being sarcastic when he said it.

Proof.

Reasons:
1. His verse is sick
2. I dont want to be too much of a stan :D

Em's hook was dope though

It'd be better without him.

I think it's pretty even. I feel I can relate more to Em's verse, but also Proof's, so it's hard to pick, but I'll say Proof.

I think it's a tie.
