[Intro:]Lately I've been hard to reachI've been too long on my ownEverybody has a private worldWhere they can be aloneAre you calling meAre you trying to get throughAre you reaching out for meI'm reaching out for you[Verse 1:]I'm just so fucking depressed, I just can't seem to get out this slumpIf I could just get over this hump, but I need something to pull me out this dumpI took my bruises, took my lumps, fell down and I got right back upBut I need that spark to get psyched back up, in order for me to pick the mic back upI don't know how or why or when, I ended up in this position I'm inI'm startin' to feel distant again, so I decided to just pick this penUp to try to make an attempt to vent, but I just can't admitOr come to grips with the fact that I may be done with rap, I need a new outletAnd I know some shits so hard to swallow, but I just can't sit back and wallowIn my own sorrow, but I know one fact, I'll be one tough act to followOne tough act to follow, I'll be one tough act to followHere today, gone tomorrow, but you got to walk a thousand miles[Chorus:]In my shoes, just to see, what it's like to be meI'll be you, let's trade shoes, just to see what it'd be like toFeel your pain, you feel mine, go inside each other's mindsJust to see, what we find, look at shit through each other's eyesBut don't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to youDon't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to you[Verse 2:]I think I'm starting to lose my sense of humourEverything's so tense and gloom, IAlmost feel like I gotta check the temperature of the roomJust as soon as I walk in, it's like all eyes on me, So I try to avoid any eye contactCause if I do that it then it opens The door for conversation, like I want thatI'm not looking for extra attention, I just wanna be just like youBlend in with the rest of the room, maybe just point me to the closest restroomI don't need no fuckin' man servant, tryna follow me around and wipe my assLaugh 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 clownSo why don't you all sit down, listen to the tale I'm about to tell, hellWe don't gotta trade our shoes, and you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles[Chorus:]In my shoes, just to see, what it's like to be meI'll be you, let's trade shoes, just to see what it'd be like toFeel your pain, you feel mine, go inside each other's mindsJust to see, what we find, look at shit through each other's eyesBut don't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to youDon't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to you[Chorus:]In my shoes, just to see, what it's like to be meI'll be you, let's trade shoes, just to see what it'd be like toFeel your pain, you feel mine, go inside each other's mindsJust to see, what we find, look at shit through each other's eyesBut don't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to youDon't let them say you ain't beautifulThey can all get fucked, just stay true to you[Outro:]Lately I've been hard to reachI've been too long on my ownEverybody has a private worldWhere they can be aloneAre you calling meAre you trying to get throughAre you reaching out for meI'm reaching out for youYeah, to my babies, stay strong, dad will be home soonAnd to the rest of the world...
