When I'm on the inside from the outside I'm still on the outside in the inside
Where my money is no good
Or I speak with a tone that's foreign to hood
Either way they expect me to be the same
I remember you taking aside one day and telling me that one day I could be normal
And ever since that day I aspired to be perfectly normal, for you
They talk about college
As voluble as can be
"We just want to grow up and
We accept this with glee!"
You came with a warning label
All you think about is your life,
They start so young with these situations
Always the good child with no complication
But little do people know and little do people see
This child is just so lonely
