Talkin’ 2 Myself (feat. Kobe)

Ay yo, before I start this song, man

I just wanna thank everybody for being so patient

And bearing with me over these last couple of years

While I figure this shit out

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' 2 myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I come from

Can anybody hear me?

I guess I'll keep talkin' 2 myself

It feels like I'm going insane

Am I the one who's crazy? Yeah

Whoa, whoa, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa, whoa, whoa oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

So why in the world do I feel so alone?

Nobody but me, I'm on my own

Is there anyone out there who feels the way I feel?

If there is, then let me hear

Just so I know I'm not the only one

I went away, I guess and opened up some lanes

But there was no one who even knew I was going through growing pains

Hatred was flowing through my veins, on the verge of going insane

I almost made a song dissing Lil Wayne

It's like I was jealous of him 'cause of the attention he was getting

I felt horrible about myself, he was spitting and I wasn't

Anyone who was buzzing back then coulda got it

Almost went at Kanye too, God, it feels like I'm going psychotic

Thank God that I didn't do it, I'da had my ass handed to me

And I knew it, but Proof wasn't here to see me through it

I'm in the booth, popping another pill, tryna talk myself into it

Are you stupid? You gon' start dissing people for no reason

Especially when you can't even write a decent punchline even?

You're lying to yourself, you're slowly dying, you're denying

Your health is declining with your self-esteem

You're crying out for help

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' 2 myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I come from

Can anybody hear me?

I guess I'll keep talkin' 2 myself

It feels like I'm going insane

Am I the one who's crazy? Yeah

So why in the world do I feel so alone?

Nobody but me, I'm on my own

Is there anyone out there who feels the way I feel?

If there is, then let me hear

Just so I know I'm not the only one

Marshall, you're no longer the man, that's a bitter pill to swallow

All I know is I'm wallowing, self-loathing and hollow

Bottoms up on the pill bottle, maybe I'll hit my bottom tomorrow

My sorrow echoes in this hall though

But I must be talking to the wall

Though I don't see nobody else

I guess I'll keep talkin' 2 myself

But all these other rappers suck is all that I know

I've turned into a hater, I've put up a false bravado

But Marshall is not an egomaniac, that's not his motto

He's not a desperado, he's desperate, it starts to bottle inside 'em

One foot on the brake, one on the throttle

Falling asleep with writers block in the parking lot of McDonalds

But instead of feeling sorry for yourself, do something 'bout it

Admit you got a problem, your brain is clouded

You pouted long enough

It isn't them, it's you, you fucking, baby

Quit worrying 'bout what they do and do Shady

I'm fucking going crazy

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' 2 myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I come from

Can anybody hear me?

I guess I'll keep talkin' 2 myself

It feels like I'm going insane

Am I the one who's crazy? Yeah

So why in the world do I feel so alone?

Nobody but me, I'm on my own

Is there anyone out there who feels the way I feel?

If there is, then let me hear

Just so I know I'm not the only one

So I pick my self off the ground and fucking swam 'fore I drown

Hit my bottom so hard I bounced twice, suffice this time around

It's different, them last two albums didn't count

Encore, I was on drugs, Relapse, I was flushing 'em out

I've come to make it up to ya, no more fucking around

I got something to prove to fans 'cause I feel like I let 'em down

So please accept my apology, I finally feel like I'm back to normal

I feel like me again, let me formally reintroduce myself

To you for those of you who don't know

The new me's back to the old me and, homie, I don't show no

Signs of slowing up, pouring up, blowing up, all over

My life is no longer a movie but the show ain't over, homos

I'm back with a vengeance, homie

Weezy, keep ya head up, T.I., keep ya head up, Kanye, keep ya head up

Don't let 'em, just keep slaying 'em

Rest in peace to DJ AM 'cause I know what it's like

I struggle with this shit every single day

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' 2 myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I come from

Can anybody hear me?

I guess I'll keep talkin' 2 myself

It feels like I'm going insane

Am I the one who's crazy? Yeah

So why in the world do I feel so alone?

Nobody but me, I'm on my own

Is there anyone out there who feels the way I feel?

If there is, then let me hear

Just so I know I'm not the only one

So there it is

Damn

It feels like I just woke up or something

I guess I just forgot who the fuck I was, man

Aye, yo, and to anybody I thought at going at

It was never nothing personal

Just some shit I was going through

And to everybody else

I'm back
