[00:01.010] | Lately I've been hard to reach |
[00:04.140] | I've been too long on my own |
[00:07.630] | Everybody has a private world |
[00:10.270] | Where they can be alone |
[00:14.920] | Are you calling me? |
[00:17.730] | Are you trying to get through? |
[00:21.500] | Are you reaching out for me |
[00:25.290] | Then I'm reaching out for you |
[00:29.360] | I'm just so fuckin' depressed |
[00:30.700] | I just can't seem to get out this slump |
[00:32.600] | If I could just get over this hump |
[00:34.270] | But I need somethin' to pull me out this dump |
[00:36.200] | I took my bruises, took my lumps |
[00:37.940] | Fell down and I got right back up |
[00:39.820] | But I need that spark to get psyched back up |
[00:41.630] | In order for me to pick the mic back up |
[00:43.500] | I don't know how or why or when |
[00:45.340] | I ended up in this position I'm in |
[00:46.990] | I'm starting to feel distant again |
[00:48.840] | So I decided just to pick this pen |
[00:50.720] | Up and try to make an attempt to vent |
[00:52.940] | But I just can't admit or come to grips with the fact |
[00:55.540] | That I may be done with rap, I need a new outlet |
[00:58.020] | And I know some shit's so hard to swallow |
[00:59.850] | But I just can't sit back and wallow |
[01:01.660] | In my own sorrow, but I know one fact: |
[01:03.590] | I'll be one tough act to follow, one tough act to follow |
[01:06.670] | I'll be one tough act to follow |
[01:09.200] | Here today, gone tomorrow |
[01:10.890] | But you'd have to walk a thousand miles— |
[01:12.640] | In my shoes, just to see what it's like to be me |
[01:16.250] | I'll be you, let's trade shoes |
[01:18.060] | Just to see what it'd be like to |
[01:19.860] | Feel your pain, you feel mine |
[01:21.710] | Go inside each other's minds |
[01:23.510] | Just to see what we find |
[01:25.320] | Look at shit through each other's eyes |
[01:27.510] | But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful |
[01:34.980] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[01:42.090] | Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful |
[01:49.400] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[01:55.850] | I think I'm starting to lose my sense of humor |
[01:58.000] | Everything's so tense and gloom |
[01:59.870] | I almost feel like I gotta check the temperature |
[02:01.830] | Of the room, just as soon as |
[02:03.690] | I walk in, it's like all eyes on me |
[02:05.240] | So I try to avoid any eye contact |

[02:08.920] | For conversation like I want that |
[02:10.930] | I'm not lookin' for extra attention |
[02:12.610] | I just wanna be just like you |
[02:14.320] | Blend in with the rest of the room |
[02:15.890] | Maybe just point me to the closest restroom |
[02:18.030] | I don't need no fuckin' man-servant |
[02:19.790] | Tryna follow me around and wipe my ass |
[02:21.660] | Laugh at every single joke I crack |
[02:23.480] | And half of 'em ain't even funny, like, "Ha! |
[02:25.460] | Marshall, you're so funny, man |
[02:27.290] | You should be a comedian, goddamn!" |
[02:29.000] | Unfortunately I am |
[02:30.990] | I just hide behind the tears of a clown |
[02:32.890] | So why don't you all sit down? |
[02:34.510] | Listen to the tale I'm about to tell |
[02:36.340] | Hell, we don't gotta trade our shoes |
[02:38.190] | And you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles— |
[02:40.000] | In my shoes, just to see what it's like to be me |
[02:43.510] | I'll be you, let's trade shoes |

[03:02.160] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[03:09.390] | Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful |
[03:16.700] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[03:23.720] | Nobody asked for life to deal us |
[03:25.440] | With these bullshit hands we're dealt |
[03:27.200] | We gotta take these cards ourselves |
[03:28.930] | And flip 'em, don't expect no help |
[03:30.800] | Now, I could've either just sat on my ass |
[03:33.450] | And pissed and moaned |
[03:34.550] | Or take this situation in which I'm placed in |
[03:37.010] | And get up and get my own |
[03:38.300] | I was never the type of kid |
[03:39.760] | To wait by the door and pack his bags |
[03:41.730] | And sat on the porch and hoped and prayed |
[03:43.530] | For a dad to show up who never did |
[03:45.350] | I just wanted to fit in in every single place |
[03:47.910] | Every school I went, I dreamed of being that cool kid |
[03:50.020] | Even if it meant acting stupid |
[03:52.600] | Aunt Edna always told me: |
[03:54.090] | "Keep making that face, it'll get stuck like that." |
[03:56.250] | Meanwhile, I'm just standin' there |
[03:57.970] | Holdin' my tongue, tryin' to talk like this |
[03:59.960] | 'Til I stuck my tongue on that frozen stop sign pole |
[04:02.120] | At eight years old; I learned my lesson then |
[04:05.150] | ‘Cause I wasn't tryin' to impress my friends no mo' |
[04:07.120] | But I already told you my whole life story |
[04:09.000] | Not just based on my description |
[04:10.800] | ‘Cause where you see it from where you're sittin' |
[04:12.620] | It's probably 110% different |
[04:14.800] | I guess we would have to walk a mile |
[04:16.720] | In each other's shoes at least |
[04:18.120] | What size you wear? I wear 10's |
[04:19.910] | Let's see if you can fit your feet— |
[04:21.790] | In my shoes, just to see what it's like to be me |
[04:25.280] | I'll be you, let's trade shoes |

[05:49.350] | So put 'em on and wear 'em |
[05:52.200] | Be yourself, man, be proud of who you are |

[02:52.640] | Look at shit through each other' s eyes |
[02:54.850] | But don' t let ' em say you ain' t beautiful |
[03:02.160] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[03:09.390] | Don' t let ' em say you ain' t beautiful |
[03:16.700] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[03:23.720] | Nobody asked for life to deal us |
[03:25.440] | With these bullshit hands we' re dealt |
[03:27.200] | We gotta take these cards ourselves |
[03:28.930] | And flip ' em, don' t expect no help |
[03:30.800] | Now, I could' ve either just sat on my ass |
[03:33.450] | And pissed and moaned |
[03:34.550] | Or take this situation in which I' m placed in |
[03:37.010] | And get up and get my own |
[03:38.300] | I was never the type of kid |
[03:39.760] | To wait by the door and pack his bags |
[03:41.730] | And sat on the porch and hoped and prayed |
[03:43.530] | For a dad to show up who never did |
[03:45.350] | I just wanted to fit in in every single place |
[03:47.910] | Every school I went, I dreamed of being that cool kid |
[03:50.020] | Even if it meant acting stupid |
[03:52.600] | Aunt Edna always told me: |
[03:54.090] | " Keep making that face, it' ll get stuck like that." |
[03:56.250] | Meanwhile, I' m just standin' there |
[03:57.970] | Holdin' my tongue, tryin' to talk like this |
[03:59.960] | ' Til I stuck my tongue on that frozen stop sign pole |
[04:02.120] | At eight years old I learned my lesson then |
[04:05.150] | ' Cause I wasn' t tryin' to impress my friends no mo' |
[04:07.120] | But I already told you my whole life story |
[04:09.000] | Not just based on my description |
[04:10.800] | ' Cause where you see it from where you' re sittin' |
[04:12.620] | It' s probably 110 different |
[04:14.800] | I guess we would have to walk a mile |
[04:16.720] | In each other' s shoes at least |
[04:18.120] | What size you wear? I wear 10' s |
[04:19.910] | Let' s see if you can fit your feet |
[04:21.790] | In my shoes, just to see what it' s like to be me |
[04:25.280] | I' ll be you, let' s trade shoes |
[04:27.140] | Just to see what it' d be like to |
[04:28.920] | Feel your pain, you feel mine |
[04:30.760] | Go inside each other' s minds |
[04:32.600] | Just to see what we find |
[04:34.330] | Look at shit through each other' s eyes |
[04:36.320] | But don' t let ' em say you ain' t beautiful |
[04:43.950] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[04:51.160] | Don' t let ' em say you ain' t beautiful |
[04:58.410] | They can all get fucked, just stay true to you |
[05:06.290] | Lately I' ve been hard to reach |
[05:09.490] | I' ve been too long on my own |
[05:13.090] | Everybody has a private world |
[05:15.670] | Where they can be alone |
[05:20.290] | Are you calling me? |
[05:23.170] | Are you trying to get through? |
[05:27.510] | Are you reaching out for me |
[05:30.660] | Then I' m reaching out for you |
[05:35.990] | Yeah, to my babies: stay strong |
[05:41.370] | Daddy' ll be home soon |
[05:43.930] | And to the rest of the world |
[05:45.880] | God gave you them shoes to fit you |
[05:49.350] | So put ' em on and wear ' em |
[05:52.200] | Be yourself, man, be proud of who you are |
[05:56.660] | Even if it sounds corny |
[05:59.330] | Never let no one tell you you ain' t beautiful |
