Why Am I Like This?

Something from nothing
that's the story that they all wanna sing
Something from nothing
What the hell are you expecting from me
Something from nothing
When you work everything dirty but your money
Something from nothing
This is a story about me

Grew up really poor, bet you've heard that.
Dad wasn't around. Well, that takes me back.
Always had to get it on my own
Yeah I made it
Always have to get it on my own
I aint lazy
Numbers always hitting up my phone (hmm)
If you aint my friend, leave me alone (hmm)
Anti-social, I be on my own (hmm)
Self sufficient, I be in my zone (hmm)
My favorite place I like to be is home
Where the shows at?
Join my party chat on PS4
What we playing?
Catch me reading manga on phone
Keep it scrolling
Catch me reading manga in my home (yeah)
Holding my guitar I'm strumming notes (yeah)
Thinking of words to put into a song (yeah)
Press record I hope you sing along (yeah)
Press record I hope you sing along (yeah)

Got a lot of hobbies
Nothing lame about me
I'm a good source of entertainment (aye)
People all around me
Even in a crowd
I'm never really gonna blend in (aye)
Yeah I'm an actor
Yeah I'm an artist
Got a wide field of vision (aye)
Young intellectual
Yeah I'm chosen
Always on the road to win (aye)

Money ain't the motivation
It's the happiness with the family and friends
I aint out paper chasing
But I stay grinding
Cause I aint trying to lose again (aye)
People always think I'm playing
Tired of repeating myself
Man I'm done speaking
People always think I'm playing
Tired of repeating myself
Man I'm done with this

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I, I, I, I

Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I, I, I, I

Something from nothing
That's the story that they all want me to sing
Something from nothing
Call me crazy for doing what makes me feel free
Something from nothing
People have told me my apathy is scary
Something from nothing
This is still a story about me

Been smart
Ever since I was a baby
Nothing can change me
I just do it all for me
Call me selfish
Call me crazy
But you'll never understand anything
If you got beef
Then we can square up
You about to catch these hands for the cheap
If you got beef
Then we can square up
You about to catch these hands for free

Why am I like this?
Why are you so toxic?
Why you always talking?
Why do you want me to quit?
What do you stand to gain from it (hmm)?
You should mind your own business (yeah).
Nosy people really make me sick (yeah).
I'll say it once again (yeah).
Nosy people really make me sick (yeah).
Just go about your business (yeah).

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I, I, I, I

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?

Why am I like this?
Why am I, I, I, I
