I'm Different - Potluck

And sever emotional abandonment

This has caused traumatic anger issues

Resulting in violent outbursts

You have responded to this by

Massive amounts of self medication

So tell me how does this make you feel?

Chorus:

I think I’m different — People looking at me funny

Trying to play me like a dummy just cause I ain’t got no money

I think I’m different — I keep on feeling like a waste

It’s getting hard to find my place I need my memories erased

I think I’m different — I’m kinda crazy in the brain

Call me borderline insane but I’m trying to make a change

I think I’m different — I couldn’t step into my own

I was lost without a home until I found the microphone

I was the boy who switched schools, the new kid on the block

The fat kid around the corner that no bitches wanna jock

And the snitches wanna sock like I was new to this stuff

Catch me slipping on the block and trying to prove that they tough

Called me names like slim, made fun of my skin

I swear they laughed and cracked jokes like I was missing a limb

I guess I didn’t fit in I guess I’m different than them

My momma hugged while she cried — don’t you listen to them

And the times I got beat up but I would fight to the end

Tried to keep my mind open, tried to find me a friend

Was bumping tougher than leather when I was sad and wanted in

Just when it started getting better is when we packed and moved again

A set back is a set up for a comeback when it’s over

Tried to suck it up instead a crying on your shoulder

I’d be lying if I told ya I was fine when I was older

I’m puffin on the Doja kill smoking like a stoner still

Chorus:

Yeah, sometimes I look into the mirror I see me and I don’t like it

I never thought they’d be a time when I would have to write this

But I’m different on the inside it’s hard to explain

And if you see me smiling I’m trying to cover up the pain

Cause deep down I’m hurting sick of trying to fit in, hey

Sick of trying to be like him man, when I was just a kid

I was down on myself I never thought that I could get through

The smallest kid at my school and I was so far from cool

Just searching trying to find the right place for me

No cable TV and no new Jordan’s on my feet

No girl by my side I don’t wanna be alive

Back then I was so sad but I’m so glad that I survived

Cause struggle makes ya stronger look at me I’m living proof

If I can do it anyone could too I wouldn’t lie to you

I was the shyest dude and I used to be so afraid

Now I’m flowing crazy on the stage I came a long way

Chorus (One Ton):
