t. karras - outsider lyrics

[intro]
i’m an outsider to this game
i may be strange, but i’m not deranged

[verse 1]
i’m a nerdy guy
don’t ask me how or why, it’s just the way it is
i’ve had knowledge ever since i was a kid
who knew i’d fall for the allure of the rap biz
it all started with a silly situation (situation)
that became bad, left me contemplatin’
what i was going to do? i felt worthless
i was under pressure, i felt lots of stress
then i heard a hip+hop song and it saved my life
almost ended it but i got a chance to fight
for my survival, my purpose, your rights
used to be hopeless now i’m a pro on the mic
but still i face an uphill battle (uphill)
because of who i am, nothin’ i say matters?
that don’t bring me down, i’m still standin’ strong
i’ll be your worst nightmare even after i’m gone

[chorus]
i think outside the box and that makes me different
i try very hard and that makes me persistent
i got the mind of a geek but the heart of the streets
i’m an outsider and i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
[verse 2]
i walk and talk like i’m weird and white
almost half+expectin’ to get into a fight
i know i’ll never understand just what goes on
and i ain’t born in the ghetto so i don’t belong
god gave me the ability to present
pain and tribulations to an audience
i may seem spoiled but i ain’t rich
and i certainly don’t buy into their bullsh+t
i risk my life everyday to deliver the message
i tell em’ not to be brought down by oppression
i tell em’ that dictatorship can suck my d+ck
i tell em’ bullies don’t mean sh+t, they’re illegitimate
i’m smarter than most, i know what goes on
they’re afraid of change so they prolong
the narrative so they can blame it all on race
segregating one another, well you a f+ckin’ disgrace

[chorus]
i think outside the box and that makes me different
i try very hard and that makes me persistent
i got the mind of a geek but the heart of the streets
i’m an outsider and i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
i think outside the box and that makes me different
i try very hard and that makes me persistent
i got the mind of a geek but the heart of the streets
i’m an outsider and i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
i ain’t givin’ up for sh+t
