Some days when I was young and I was dressed up as I do Not looking like the rest but what I felt as cool They said I was the one who was playing a fool For attention I'd stand out the way that I do They use to pick and tease, not take me seriously But see I did not care 'cos we were only kids So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me But yes, hoping my style, looking right as I did They say that I don't eat and that I don't get no sleep They say that I ain't cool and that I look like a freak I said, I ain't you and you are not me We are who we are, let us be Here's I'm reunion and I meet them same old kids Don't recognize their friends but do remember me So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me But yes, hoping my style, looking right as I did They say that I don't eat and that I don't get no sleep They say that I ain't cool and that I look like a freak I said, I ain't you and you are not me They say that I don't know and say my mind is too weak They say my body's slow and say I ain't got no beat I said, I ain't you and you are not me We are who we are, let us be So my story to you Is stand up and be proud If you're quiet then that's cool If you're not shout it loud They say that I don't eat and that I don't get no sleep They say that I ain't cool and that I look like a freak I said, I ain't you and you are not me They say that I don't know and say my mind is too weak They say my body's slow and say I ain't got no beat I said, I ain't you and you are not me We are who we are, let us be They say that I don't know and say my mind is too weak They say my body's slow and say I ain't got no beat I said, I ain't you and you are not me We are who we are, let us be And I heard that a foolish thing to say
