Count Me Out

All my life I've been a misfit Ay, you can find me posted on the fringes They always said "that boy, oh yeah he different" And now they say "that boy, oh yeah he Christian" Yeah, that boy religious Hit the pause up on that playlist Cos you know good and well that boy's convictions And he gon' stop the music if we play it Cos everybody know that boy read scripture Yeah, that boy read fiction The things that I hear through the grapevine The things that I see with a strained eye Spent a lotta years on a crooked path Now a brother movin' in a straight line Now a brother livin' with a changed heart Now a brother livin' with a changed mind Comfortable in my own skin, that's on ten, and I thank God But it ain't no love on the outside And everybody wants shelter Cos it literally gets cold as ice On them snowy nights in December So you stray from God for acceptance Then pray to God in rejection As you come to find that you don compromised For the sake of money, love and some affection, man I would give you everything I have But you would never love me, would you? And I could walk away from who I am for you But you could never love me, could you? So you can just count me of that game, baby You can just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby Just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby You can just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby Just count me out All my life I tried to fit in On a true thing, in school I tried to get in With the cool kids, hoping that we could kick it But they just looked at me like "don't come near us, boy you suspicious" Yo that cut me like a monkey You would swear them boys ain't have any feelings But it ain't no man alive that's not a junkie neither And they were just a bunch of feens for empty lyrics Yeah, thought that's my ticket So I get to dipping my toes into battle rap Delivering flows over sampled tracks And back then it was all about the punchlines And bringing it cold like a avalanche Lyin' from the jump that I had a gat When I ain't held a gun in my life And man, if something were to pop off here right now Lord knows, I'mma run for my life Whether low oxygen or no oxygen It's hard to breathe in the crowd If you ain't got room for my culture It ain't hard for me to stand out I'll take a king suite in that mansion over a pull-out bed in that house I'm just a nice guy with a right mind Real talk, get to know what I'm about I would give you everything I have But you would never love me, would you? And I could walk away from who I am for you But you could never love me, could you? So you can just count me of that game, baby You can just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby Just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby You can just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby Just count me out I would give you everything I have But you would never love me, would you? And I could walk away from who I am for you But you could never love me, could you? So you can just count me of that game, baby You can just count me out You can just count me of that game, baby Just count me out
