Beautiful(MP3_320K)

[00:00.57] Lately I've been hard to reach

[00:03.75] I've been too long on my own

[00:07.20] Everybody has a private world where they can be alone

[00:14.36] Are you calling me?

[00:17.55] Are you tryin' to get through?

[00:21.27] Are you reaching out for me?

[00:24.28] I'm reaching out for you

[00:28.79] I'm just so fucking depressed

[00:30.39] I just can't seem to get out this slump

[00:32.25] If I could just get over this hump

[00:34.11] But I need something to pull me out this dump

[00:36.23] I took my bruises, took my lumps

[00:37.82] Fell down then I got right back up

[00:39.42] But I need that spark to get psyched back up

[00:41.28] In order for me to pick the mic back up

[00:43.41] I don't know how or why or when

[00:45.00] I ended up in this position I'm in

[00:46.85] I'm starting to feel distant again

[00:48.72] So I decided just to pick this pen

[00:50.57] Up and try to make an attempt

[00:52.17] To vent, but I just can't admit

[00:54.29] Or come to grips with the fact that

[00:56.53] I may be done with rap, I need a new outlet

[00:57.85] And I know some shit's so hard to swallow

[00:59.71] But I just can't sit back and wallow

[01:01.57] In my own sorrow, but I know one fact:

[01:03.17] I'll be one tough act to follow

[01:05.29] One tough act to follow

[01:06.89] I'll be one tough act to follow

[01:09.01] Here today, gone tomorrow

[01:10.60] But you'd have to walk a thousand miles—

[01:12.51] In my shoes, just to see

[01:14.10] What it's like to be me

[01:15.96] I'll be you, let's trade shoes

[01:17.82] Just to see what it'd be like to

[01:19.94] Feel your pain, you feel mine

[01:21.28] Go inside each other's minds

[01:23.13] Just to see what we find

[01:24.99] Look at shit through each other's eyes

[01:27.38] But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[01:34.55] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[01:41.99] Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[01:49.16] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[01:56.07] I think I'm startin' to lose my sense of humor

[01:57.66] Everything's so tense and gloom

[01:59.52] I almost feel like I gotta check the temperature

[02:01.65] Of the room, just as soon as

[02:03.25] I walk in, it's like all eyes on me

[02:05.10] So I try to avoid any eye contact

[02:06.70] 'Cause if I do that, then it opens a door

[02:08.55] For conversation like I want that

[02:10.68] I'm not lookin' for extra attention

[02:12.54] I just wanna be just like you

[02:14.13] Blend in with the rest of the room

[02:15.99] Maybe just point me to the closest restroom

[02:17.85] I don't need no fuckin' man servant

[02:19.44] Tryna follow me around and wipe my ass

[02:21.30] Laugh at every single joke I crack

[02:23.43] And half of 'em ain't even funny, like, "Ha!

[02:25.55] Marshall, you're so funny, man

[02:26.88] You should be a comedian, goddamn!"

[02:29.01] Unfortunately I am

[02:30.60] I just hide behind the tears of a clown

[02:32.46] So why don't you all sit down?

[02:34.32] Listen to the tale I'm about to tell

[02:35.91] Hell, we don't gotta trade our shoes

[02:37.77] And you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles—

[02:39.90] In my shoes, just to see

[02:41.49] What it's like to be me

[02:43.35] I'll be you, let's trade shoes

[02:45.21] Just to see what it'd be like to

[02:47.07] Feel your pain, you feel mine

[02:48.66] Go inside each other's minds

[02:50.53] Just to see what we find

[02:52.38] Look at shit through each other's eyes

[02:54.51] But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[03:01.94] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[03:09.11] Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[03:16.55] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[03:23.46] Nobody asked for life to deal us

[03:25.32] With these bullshit hands we're dealt

[03:26.91] We gotta take these cards ourselves

[03:28.51] And flip 'em, don't expect no help

[03:30.63] Now, I could've either just sat

[03:32.49] On my ass and pissed and moaned

[03:34.08] Or take this situation in which I'm placed in

[03:36.47] And get up and get my own

[03:38.07] I was never the type of kid

[03:39.40] To wait by the door and pack his bags

[03:41.25] And sat on the porch and hoped and prayed

[03:43.11] For a dad to show up who never did

[03:44.98] I just wanted to fit in

[03:46.84] In every single place, every school I went

[03:48.69] I dreamed of being that cool kid

[03:50.55] Even if it meant actin' stupid

[03:52.14] Aunt Edna always told me:

[03:53.74] "Keep making that face, it'll get stuck like that."

[03:55.87] Meanwhile, I'm just standin' there

[03:57.46] Holdin' my tongue, tryin' to talk like this

[03:59.86] 'Til I stuck my tongue on that frozen

[04:01.46] Stop sign pole at eight-years-old

[04:03.32] I learned my lesson then, 'cause I wasn't

[04:05.18] Tryin' to impress my friends no mo'

[04:07.04] But I already told you my whole life story

[04:08.63] Not just based on my description

[04:10.49] 'Cause where you see it from where you're sittin'

[04:12.35] It's probably a 110% different

[04:14.47] I guess we would have to walk a

[04:16.07] Mile in each other's shoes at least

[04:18.19] What size you wear? I wear 10's

[04:19.52] Let's see if you can fit your feet—

[04:21.60] In my shoes, just to see

[04:23.20] What it's like to be me

[04:25.06] I'll be you, let's trade shoes

[04:26.92] Just to see what it'd be like to

[04:28.78] Feel your pain, you feel mine

[04:30.64] Go inside each other's minds

[04:32.23] Just to see what we find

[04:34.09] Look at shit through each other's eyes

[04:36.48] But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[04:43.65] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[04:50.82] Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful, oh

[04:58.26] They can all get fucked, just stay true to you, so

[05:05.96] Lately I've been hard to reach

[05:09.15] I've been too long on my own (Oh)

[05:12.87] Everybody has a private world

[05:15.32] Where they can be alone (So)

[05:19.84] Are you calling me?

[05:23.29] Are you tryin' to get through? (Oh)

[05:27.01] Are you reaching out for me?

[05:29.93] I'm reaching out for you (So)

[05:35.26] Yeah

[05:37.38] To my babies:

[05:38.98] Stay strong

[05:41.63] Your Dad'll be home soon

[05:43.49] And to the rest of the world:

[05:45.62] God gave you shoes

[05:47.48] To fit you

[05:49.08] So put 'em on and wear 'em

[05:51.99] Be yourself, man

[05:54.12] Be proud of who you are

[05:56.51] Even if it sounds corny

[05:59.17] Don't never let no one tell you

[06:01.29] You ain't beautiful (So-oh-oh-oh-oh)
