Outkast
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
Feeling like I don't fit in
I was feeling kinda' hallow
I'm waking up out of my slumber feeling like I ain't gon' follow
Can't be nobody but myself and the only thing that matters to this individual
Are the visuals, oh yeah and the residuals
Getting chips when I dip haters trip
Cause I peel up in a brown potato whip hit the hills or the strip
Zip pounds when I'm down hit the town to make my rounds
And I make hits on the mound while the rest of you suckas lounge
And I'm back up so back, mind ya business, that's all
Act up so we could match up and then step up to see ya down fall
You see they always could pick up that I was different didn't fit in so I stayed distant
In high school I stayed missing, in the studio while they listen
Get chicks while they miss them, bait them I stayed fishing
Get dough was my main mission now it's time to see a pay difference
You see my grind now got harder and I'm eating through this rapping
Not trapping b boy but rapping yeah yeah yeah
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
Feeling like I don't fit in
I admit I was lost, feeling like I was caught
In the middle of being successful and popular before
But popular never got you popping after school of course
Unless you got contract playing a popular sport
But I was a ladies man, humble with competition
Didn't want no attention, but that was a contradiction
My homegirl said, boy stop playing you put in the work now go get compensation
But I guess out of all frustration I didn't want no confrontation
I hated all the attention so I ran from it
Too bad if I did I just I hope I ain't lose no fans from it (Fans from it)
And that might be so but I know I got a gain from it
But at the same time I know I felt some pain from it
All I really want are the nice things, big cake and icing
That's when they said that I had pipe dreams but I was high off life what it might seem
Now a nigga hot like pipe steam, never really been a hype fiend
They tried to put me in a box-ing ring
Feeling like Mike and I might swing
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
Feeling Like I don't fit in (Fit in)
Nobody likes this feeling (Feeling)
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
I was always on the outside looking in
Feeling like I don't fit in
I'm trying to express myself, I don't need nobody's help
I'm trying to express myself so don't judge me, don't judge me
I'm trying to express myself, I don't need nobody's help
I'm trying to express myself so don't judge me, don't judge me, yeah
