Outcast

Outcast - NF

Written by：Nate Feuerstein/Tommee Profitt

Woke up in the cell where am I at

Yeah it's cold but I like that

What am I trapped

Heart's beating out of my chest

Door's locked but the keys are in my hands

Hm yeah that's weird it doesn't make sense does it

I make songs I don't make friends judge me

Might smile but it ain't that funny

Sing along to the pain they love it

Life's like a merry go round

And I'm still tryna figure it out

I like space I don't fit in the crowds

My whole life I've been airin' it out

Oh I'm gettin' into character now

Feels wrong but it feels right

My feelings seal tight real nice

But I will fight anything to win

But I'm not Mike Tyson I won't bite ya

But I will tell you if I don't like you

I am not the norm

I got my own shoes I ain't tryna fit in yours

I never been married but I've felt divorced

Hi I'm Nate have we met before

Somebody told you I was wack

Check the source

Somebody told you I was back

Yes of course

You got a problem with the fans

There's the door

You lookin' for the old me

Check the morgue agh

Not a fortune teller but I can see into the future better

Ain't no tellin' what'll happen when I pick up the microphone get the fans together

Same style but the songs are better

Been a year and a half feels like it's gone forever

Ain't no drink in my hand but you know the buzz is comin'

Big steps in the game yeah the Hulk is running

My thoughts are funny it feels like I'm onto something yeah

I'm high off the music my head's in the clouds

I kinda like it up here I am not comin' down

I'd rather be alone I am not good in crowds

Which is kinda confusin' I know been that way since a child

They laughin' they tell me I'll never get out

I'm just tryna be me I am nobody else

I don't care what you think I'm just bein' myself

So I guess for now

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I guess I'll be the outcast

Yeah I guess I don't fit the mold of rap

'Cause I'm respectin' women

I heard your record I was laughin' at it

Maybe they would like me more if I got a little graphic with it

Nah I don't wanna blend in with you little rappin' idiots

I'd rather be the outcast

I ain't never puttin' out trash

I take a hundred and staple it right to my tongue

I always put the money where my mouth's at agh

Feels good to be here now

I'm a weird person with a weird crowd

What you don't like that

That's cool that's great that's fine okay you can leave now

Got a weird smile but I like it though

I paint it on me and I'm walkin' to the microphone

And put the caution tape around me like I did in Intro 1 yeah

Yeah they got me reminiscin' now

Yeah you done know I'm 'bout to go mad

Never wanted something so bad

Goosebumps through the whole track

Ain't no way I'm gonna hold back

Got me thinkin' that I'm cookin' in a meth lab

I don't blow it up in front of my own eyes

You look a little lost you ain't get that

Comin' from a town where nobody is a rapper

Guess I never get the memo must've missed that

Wow

Here I go in my feelings again I can feel it again

So I lay in my bed in my cell with the pen

And I dwell on my sins I keep wonderin' when

Time to open the the doors they don't know who I am

But I pick up the keys and I put on my Timbs

And I stare at the locks and the tat on my skin

And I think to myself I don't wanna fit in

I'm high off the music my head's in the clouds

I kinda like it up here I am not comin' down

I'd rather be alone I am not good in crowds

Which is kinda confusin' I know been that way since a child

They laughin' they tell me I'll never get out

I'm just tryna be me I am nobody else

I don't care what you think I'm just bein' myself

So I guess for now

Yeah I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I guess I'll be the outcast

Yeah tryna focus

Take a knife to my head then I cut it open

Take my brain put it on the floor tryna figure out my motives

Y'all thought I was an issue when the door was locked

Nah you should see me when the door opens

Every night I can hear voices

Put a camera in my face might turn Joker like I'm Mike Posner

Always been a little complex

Difficult to process

Some of y'all wanna sit around and try to pick apart my bars

Here's some lines you could dissect

If I'ma die I'ma die givin' everything that I have

Take a deep breath I don't need y'all's respect

I'm a reject kid at recess playin' games with his make believe friends

Yeah I don't ever take a night off

Lights off in the room and I write songs

I might fall into my thoughts once in a while when the mic's off

You ain't ever seen no drive like mine better hop outta my car

I'm about to unlock my doors

You ain't got a seat belt on better find one

Gettin' sick of people tellin' me to smile more

T.S. was a chapter I'll never forget it was therapy for me

But it's time to turn the page now

Hey shut up I'm tryna tell 'em my story

I'm sorry I wasn't yellin' at y'all I was talkin' to the voices

I rip out the drums of the industry's ears for tryin' to ignore me

And playin' while singin' this chorus

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I guess I'll be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I'll just be the outcast

I guess I'll be the outcast
