[Intro: Eminem]

Ayo, 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

[Chorus: Kobe]

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' to myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I've come from

Can anybody hear me?

Yeah, I guess I keep talkin' to myself

It feels like I'm goin' insane

Am I the one who's crazy?

Yeah, woah-woah, woah-woah

Woah-woah, woah-woah, woah-woah

[Post-Chorus: 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, then lend me an ear

Just so I know that I'm not the only one

[Verse 1: Eminem]

I went away, I guess, and opened up some lanes

But there was no one who even knew I was goin' through growin' pains

Hatred was flowin' through my veins, on the verge of goin' 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 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 wasn't here to see me through it

I'm in the booth, poppin' another pill, tryna talk myself into it

"Are you stupid? You're gon' start dissin' people for no reason?

'Specially when you can't even write a decent punchline even? You're lyin' to yourself

You're slowly dyin', you're denyin', your health

Is declinin' with your self-esteem, you're cryin' out for help"

[Chorus: Kobe]

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' to myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I've come from

Can anybody hear me?

Yeah, I guess I keep talkin' to myself

It feels like I'm goin' insane

Am I the one who's crazy?

Yeah

[Post-Chorus: 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, then lend me an ear

Just so I know that I'm not the only one

[Verse 2: Eminem & Kobe]

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'll hit my bottom tomorrow

My sorrow echoes in this hall though (Oh-oh, oh)

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 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

Fallin' asleep with writer's block in the parkin' lot of McDonald's

But instead of feeling sorry for yourself, do something 'bout it

Admit you got a problem, your brain is clouded

You pouted long enough

It isn't them, it's you, you fuckin' baby!

Quit worryin' 'bout what they do, and do Shady

I'm fuckin' goin' crazy

[Chorus: Kobe]

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' to myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I've come from

Can anybody hear me?

Yeah, I guess I keep talkin' to myself

It feels like I'm goin' insane

Am I the one who's crazy?

Yeah

[Post-Chorus: 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, then lend me an ear

Just so I know that I'm not the only one

[Verse 3: Eminem]

So I picked myself up 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 flushin' 'em out

I've come to make it up to you now, no more fuckin' around

I got somethin' 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

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 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 slayin' them, rest in peace to DJ AM

'Cause I know what it's like

I struggle with this shit every single day, and um…

[Chorus: Kobe]

Is anybody out there?

It feels like I'm talkin' to myself

No one seems to know my struggle

And everything I've come from

Can anybody hear me?

Yeah, I guess I keep talkin' to myself

It feels like I'm goin' insane

Am I the one who's crazy?

Yeah

[Post-Chorus: 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, then lend me an ear

Just so I know that I'm not the only one

[Outro: Eminem]

So there it is, damn

Feels like I just woke up or something

I guess I just forgot who the fuck I was, man

Ayo, and to anybody I thought about going at

It was never nothing personal

It was just some shit I was going through

And to everybody else, I'm back (I'm back)

Haha (Haha)
