Eminem
TALKIN' 2 MYSELF
[ featuring Kobe ]
Ey yo, Before I start this song man
I just want to thank everybody for being so patient
And baring with me over these last couple of years
While I figure this shit out
[CHORUS]
- Kobe -
Is anybody out there?
It feels like I'm talkin to myself
No one seems to know my struggle
and everything I come from
Can anybody hear me?
I guess I keep talkin to myself
It feels like I'm going insane
Am I the one who's crazy?
Yeayah
Woah wah
Woah wah (oh oh oh oh oh)
Woah wah
Woah wah (oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
[BRIDGE]
- Eminem -
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 I'm not the only one
- Eminem -
I went away I guess to open up some lanes
But there was no one who even knew that I was going through growin' pains
Hatred was flowing through my veins
On the verge of going insane
I almost made a song dissin' Lil Wayne
It's like I was jealous of him 'cause of the attention he was gettin'
I felt horrible about myself
He was spittin' and I wasn't
Anyone who was buzzin' back then could've got it
Almost went at Kanye too
God it feels like I'm goin' psychotic
Thank God that I didn't do it
I would've 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 poppin' another pill try'na talk myself into it
Are you stupid? You gonna start dissin' 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
[CHORUS]

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 talkin' to the wall though
I don't see nobody else (I guess I keep talkin' 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 a 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
Fallin' asleep with writer's block in the parking lot of McDonalds
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 its you you fuckin' baby
Quit worrying about what they do and do fuckin' Shady
I'm fucking going crazy
[CHORUS]

So I pick up myself off the ground and fuckin' swam before I drowned
Hit my bottom so hard I bounce 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 up to make it up to you no more fucking around
I've got something to prove to fans 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, so 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 slowin' up, oh and I'm blowin' up all over
My life is no longer a movie but the shows 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, keep slayin' 'em
Rest in peace to DJ AM
'Cause I know what it's like
I struggle with this shit every single day
