What is the meaning behind “Never fading, and I know the haters are forever waiting”? Rap God by Eminem

Em will be in the rap game forever. He will never go away/fade. But not only will Em stay, all his haters will stay as well. Getting ‘faded’ is also slang for being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Em has a notorious history with drug abuse, and his haters are waiting for him to “fall off” and return to his ‘old self’, a time when he used drugs frequently. However, Em states that they will be “forever waiting” because he will never return to his old habits.
