lyrics

2013 Jan - Blackest Sheep

Verse 1 (Not fitting in with the real world)
Ever since my first days I was just odd
Played the outcast - like a full-time job
Dungeons and dragons and shoes of velcro
White chile in the 'burbs but born in the ghetto
Style so old it was carbon dated
I listened to the music that everyone hated
'fore hip-hop was make believe
Tape'in songs from the radio back in ‘83
Lego space ships of grand design
Got to find a safe place like inside my mind
Strummin guitar for imagination
NES and comics were my best vacations
Got a little older – and grew my hair long
I hid inside the bottle – I hid inside a bong
Hid inside women – and I hide inside songs
Lotsa dark places – never I belong

Cho 1
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
I don’t fit in - Is it just my poisoned mind?
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
I don’t fit in

Verse 2 (How I deal)
Fast forward a bit to the future that’s present
I found a family in some nerdy conventions
I found a program where my function is called
A solution to a maze that could never be solved
Yeah I don’t fit in but I march to my own tunes
I stick to my guns and always keep it true
I’m quirky as fuck – but I wear that shit proud
If you fit with this – you’re welcome in our crowd
(half-tempo)
I spit who I am – straight down to the bone
I preside over no one – on a self-made loner throne
pwnin nobody but these beats and these words
If you’re down with this - then give it to the nerds

Cho 2
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
I don’t fit in - Is it just my poisoned mind?
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
I don’t fit in - Is it just my per-spect-ive?
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
I don’t fit in - Is it just the words I use?
I don’t fit in - Socially I don't connect
I don’t fit in - Can you tell me why?
Can you tell me why
Can you tell me why
