Joe Budden - Outcast lyrics

Stuck in the everyday struggle, only mines is hourly Jungle full of wolves with a few lions that's cowardly Used to make it hot, even that was too mild for me School of hard knocks, tried to make the teacher proud of me Sue me, script straight out of a movie Toooolie, won't get kicked and pushed like Lupe From groupies to housewives, from scams to skirmish From sane to loco, from hustler to hermit You let n***as plot and believe me they goin' try My n***a been shot nine times and won't die And so d**h threats become d**h threats When they want you on your d**h bed and you ain't been put to rest yet You in ICU See the gunman in your head, damn can't wait 'til I see dude Hate hospitals, I don't wanna go see dude Know I love you to d**h, I feel it's no need to In my mind there's bloody hallways and project windows Dice games, thick clouds of project indo n***as creepin' off with the project nympho Or plain clothes searching for some project info Projects I resemble, so I don't stand out lookin' clean cut Hangin 'round the project kinfolk Cutthroats and liars, connects and suppliers Fiends and they buyers, liquor store right by us Kicks over the wire If you Dave Blaine start choking in the water, send in the divers Show dudes the real definition of survivor In my mind I'm bu*t naked walking through the fire Oxymoron, stubborn as a brick y'all I'm a five star suite with the view of a brick wall A high cla** scumbag, conceited nobody Popular stranger, I see sh** like nobody A Tarrantino, Martin Scorsese Coming up, I was that n***a they called crazy In my hood, they like f** em all, gotta pay me Then get shot in the a** for thinking it's all gravy I'm on my third C.I. now And my b**h running round like she a P.I. now Going through his phone book and his Levi's now It's two choices, chillax or leave right now That's how it be right now ain't ya ordinary rapper dude Menace To Society, a n***a with a attitude A soul of mischief, I know all about that Poor righteous teacher, nah more like a outcast
