Since I can remember, guess I been a problem Never had a filter, never been the popular one To sugar coat what I know is undeniable I just can't hide it, I wear it like a letter Everywhere I go, everyone is talking I can feel them staring, they hope I'm just pretending And giving up my power, caving into pressure I'm not living for them, I live for something better I'm not good enough, I'm not what they want But let me tell you what, I know who I am So just throw me out for not fitting in I will stand my ground and be an outcast So what if I'm an outcast? So what if I'm an outcast? So what if I don't look the part I'm supposed to play What if I don't follow all the rules they make They think I should be perfect, they love it when I mess up No grace…

Never Fitting in
Since I can remember, guess I been a problem Never had a filter, never been the popular one To sugar coat what I know is undeniable I just can't hide it, I wear it like a letter Everywhere I go, everyone is talking I can feel them staring, they hope I'm just pretending And giving up my power, caving into pressure I'm not living for them, I live for something better I'm not good enough, I'm not what they want But let me tell you what, I know who I am So just throw me out for not fitting in I will stand my ground and be an outcast So what if I'm an outcast? So what if I'm an outcast? So what if I don't look the part I'm supposed to play What if I don't follow all the rules they make They think I should be perfect, they love it when I mess up No grace…
