I'll Be the Odd Man Out

No I don’t need drugs
Don’t need beer
Don’t need that push
I never fear
Don’t ever care
that I probably will be the odd man out

Instead I know
That I still don’t
Fall to peer pressure
Like all my friends
Did in the past
They’re kicking their ass
Screwed up their lives
And I’m still fine

Yeah
I’m stronger than you were
Stronger than you will
Ever be
You don’t
Compared to me
Instead you fill
Yourself with pain
And you’re to blame
For what you came to be   ohoh

Back in 5th grade
We went different ways
You went down
I stayed the same
And I found out
People change
A different person
A different game

Cigs and weed
Went to meth you see
“Not a gateway drug”
You won’t be free
You’re now hooked
A highschool degree
That won’t get much
Taco Bell maybe?


Yeah
I’m stronger than you were
Stronger than you will
Ever be
You don’t
Compared to me
Instead you fill
Yourself with pain
And you’re to blame
For what you came to be   ohoh
