Eminem, Kobe - Talkin’ 2 Myself

Ayo, before I start this song man,
I just wanna thank everybody
For being so patient
And bearing with me
Over these last couple years
While I figured this shit out...

[Chorus - Kobe:]
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,
Feels like I'm going insane,
Am I the one who's crazy?

[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?
That there is, then let me in
So I know that I'm not the only one.

I went away,
I guess that 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 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 gonna
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...

[Chorus - Kobe:]
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,
Feels like I'm going insane,
Am I the one who's crazy?

[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?
That there is, then let me in
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 wallowing,
Self-loathing and hollow,
Bottoms up on the pill bottle,
Maybe I hit my bottom tomorrow,
My sorrow echos 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 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 writers block
In the parking lot of Mcdonalds,
But instead of feeling sorry
For yourself, do something about 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!

[Chorus - Kobe:]
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,
Feels like I'm going insane,
Am I the one who's crazy?

[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?
That there is, then let me in
So I know that I'm not the only one.

So I picked myself up off the ground
And fucking swam before I drowned,
Hit my bottom so hard
I bounced twice,
Advice this time around,
It's different,
Them last 2 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 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
Re-introduce 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 or bowing,
I'm 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 your head up,
T.I. keep your head up,
Kanye keep your head up,
Don't let up, just keep slaying 'em,
Rest in peace to DJ AM
Cause I know what this it's like,
I struggle with this shit
Every single day and I'm...

[Chorus - Kobe:]
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,
Feels like I'm going insane,
Am I the one who's crazy?

[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?
That there is, then let me in
So I know that I'm not the only one.

So there it is, damn, feels like
I just woke up or something
Guess I just forgot
Who the fuck I was man,
Ayo, and to anybody
I thought about going at,
It was never nothing personal, just
Some shit that I was going through,
And to everybody else, I'm back!
