The Outsider by Mockingbird Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's like every day there's an issue, grab a tissue
Hear about a firearm that was misused
And on top of all the issues, you still wantin' me to diss you
While there's black lives wearin' vests cause Smith & Wesson's tryna break through
And Corona was the breakthrough of what nature's about to do
All the mildew all plants live through
They no clue how to push through all the shit continued to spew in the atmosphere
Affected all around this sphere, still you like to ask what it is I fear
Let us look back at the year and look at what has got us here
All the fires in Australia were the warning for the year
And if you hadn't shed a tear then grim the reaper was to steal
The one that made it feel unreal and made even the haters kneel
Yo, Kobe, we still shootin' here, just not the way that is ideal
I wish this year would disappear, the work of David Copperfield
I feel my deal with death's to heal, so let me tell you what's surreal:
Life is just a movie, tragedies are not no blooper reel
[Chorus]
Rain begins to pour, drownin' all our stores
So I'm waitin' for the countdown, down
Pain begins to soar, soundin' all mentors
So people adore the outsider (sider)
[Verse 2]
Blaow!
Thought that that was bad enough?
Then wait 'til people had enough and watch as they start actin' up
They show they're mad by actin' tough and loot the stores as if they're drunk
You ask me why, I'll tell you why
Because a man was killed for nothin'
Couldn't breathe, his hands were cuffed
And people ask why are we fucked, I tell you now it's not all luck
We shoot our kind, and scoot in line
And if we don't we're run amuck
And no one school would dare have us
When really they are scared of us
I'm sorry that I preach equality and that I never judge
But compliment
I'm confident we're competent of providence
And ever since we lost our Prince
And lost our King, we've lost our sting
But don't you worry I'll restore it in my chorus
I'm historic, healin' people through my foreign moral aura that's euphoric
[Chorus]
Rain begins to pour, drownin' all our stores
So I'm waitin' for the countdown, down
Pain begins to soar, soundin' all mentors
So people adore the outsider (sider)
[Outro]
Yeah. Gotta say it for what it is, you know? The Outsider
It's like every day there's an issue, grab a tissue
Hear about a firearm that was misused
And on top of all the issues, you still wantin' me to diss you
While there's black lives wearin' vests cause Smith & Wesson's tryna break through
And Corona was the breakthrough of what nature's about to do
All the mildew all plants live through
They no clue how to push through all the shit continued to spew in the atmosphere
Affected all around this sphere, still you like to ask what it is I fear
Let us look back at the year and look at what has got us here
All the fires in Australia were the warning for the year
And if you hadn't shed a tear then grim the reaper was to steal
