Lately I've been hard to reach I've been too long on my own Everybody has a private world Where they can be alone Are you calling me Are you trying to get through Are you reaching out for me I'm reaching out for you
I'm just so fucking depressed, I just can't seem to get out this slump If I could just get over this hump, but I need something to pull me out this dump I took my bruises, took my lumps, fell down and I got right back up But I need that spark to get psyched back up, in order for me to pick the mic back up I don't know how or why or when, I ended up in this position I'm in I'm startin' to feel distant again, so I decided to just pick this pen Up to try to make an attempt to vent, but I just can't admit Or come to grips with the fact that I may be done with rap, I need a new outlet And I know some shits so hard to swallow, but I just can't sit back and wallow In my own sorrow, but I know one fact, I'll be one tough act to follow One tough act to follow, I'll be one tough act to follow Here today, gone tomorrow, but you got to walk a thousand miles
In my shoes, just to see, what it's like to be me I'll be you, let's trade shoes, just to see what it'd be like to Feel your pain, you feel mine, go inside each other's minds Just to see, what we find, look at shit through each other's eyes But don't let them say you ain't beautiful They can all get fucked, just stay true to you Don't let them say you ain't beautiful They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
I think I'm starting to lose my sense of humour Everything's so tense and gloom, I Almost feel like I gotta check the temperature of the room Just as soon as I walk in, it's like all eyes on me, So I try to avoid any eye contact Cause if I do that it then it opens The door for conversation, like I want that I'm not looking for extra attention, I just wanna be just like you Blend in with the rest of the room, maybe just point me to the closest restroom I don't need no fuckin' man servant, tryna follow me around and wipe my ass Laugh at every single joke I crack, and half of them ain't even funny, like "AAHHHHH! Marshall, you're so funny man, you should be a comedian, god damn!" Unfortunately I am, I just hide behind the tears of a clown So why don't you all sit down, listen to the tale I'm about to tell, hell We don't gotta trade our shoes, and you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles
In my shoes, just to see, what it's like to be me I'll be you, let's trade shoes, just to see what it'd be like to Feel your pain, you feel mine, go inside each other's minds Just to see, what we find, look at shit through each other's eyes But don't let them say you ain't beautiful They can all get fucked, just stay true to you Don't let them say you ain't beautiful They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
Nobody asked for life to deal us with these bullshit hands we're dealt We gotta take these cards ourselves, and flip them, don't expect no help Now I could of either just sat on my ass, and pissed and moaned Or take this situation in which I'm placed in, and get up and get my own I was never the type of kid to wait by the door and pack his bags Or sat on the porch and hoped and prayed for a dad to show up who never did I just wanted to fit in in every single place, every school I went I dreamed of being that cool kid even if it meant acting stupid Aunt Edna always told me, keep making that face til it gets stuck like that Meanwhile I'm just standing there holding my tounge, tryna talk like BLEGH! Then I stuck my tounge on that frozen stop sign pole at eight years old I learned my lesson then, 'cause I wasn't trying to impress my friends no more
