| 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 talking to myself
|
| No one seems to know my struggle
|
| And everything I come from
|
| Can anybody hear me, yeah?
|
| I guess I keep talking to 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,
|
| Let me hear just so I know that 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 growin' 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 gettin'
|
| 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 goin' psychotic
|
| Thank God that I didn’t do it
|
| I’da had my ass handed to me
|
| And I knew it but Proof isn’t here to see me through it
|
| I’m in the booth popping another pill tryna talk myself into it
|
| Are you stupid? |
| You’re 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 talking to myself
|
| No one seems to know my struggle
|
| And everything I come from
|
| Can anybody hear me, yeah?
|
| I guess I keep talking to 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,
|
| Let me hear just so I know that 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 wallowin', 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 keep talking to 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, his thoughts are bottled
|
| Inside him, one foot on the brake one on the throttle
|
| Falling asleep with writer’s block in the parking lot of McDonald’s
|
| But instead of feeling sorry for yourself do something about it
|
| Admit you got a problem you brain is clouded you pouted long enough
|
| It isn’t them it’s you you fuckin' baby
|
| Quit worrying about what they do and do shady
|
| I’m fucking going crazy
|
| Is anybody out there?
|
| It feels like I’m talking to myself
|
| No one seems to know my struggle
|
| And everything I come from
|
| Can anybody hear me, yeah?
|
| I guess I keep talking to 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,
|
| Let me hear just so I know that I’m not the only one
|
| So I picked myself off the ground and fuckin' swam 'fore I drowned
|
| 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 you now, no more fucking around
|
| I’ve got something to prove to fans 'cause I feel like I’ve 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, pulling 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 up, just keep slaying em
|

| 'Cause I know what it’s like
|
| I struggle with this shit every single day and um…
|
| Is anybody out there?
|
| It feels like I’m talking to myself
|
| No one seems to know my struggle
|
| And everything I come from
|
| Can anybody hear me, yeah?
|
| I guess I keep talking to 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
|

|
| If there is,
|
| Let me hear just so I know that I’m not the only one
|
| So there it is (there it is)
|
| Damn
|
| It feels like I just woke up or something
|
| I guess I just… forgot who the fuck I was man
|
| Ay yo
|
| And to anybody I thought about going at, it was never nothing personal,
|
| just some shit I was going through
|
| And to everybody else…
|
| I’m back! |
