"Different"
I’m ADHD, so what if I’m different.
I’m hyper and I can’t focus but I hold the world by inference.
Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder;
I can control it, I just don’t try.
It’s pretty nice being able to juggle
Five separate tasks all at the same time.
Don’t look at me like I’m some kind of freak
Because I never study and pass every test with ease.
You got a problem, then say it to my face.
I’m might be happy go lucky, but I’ll still beat the fuck outta you any day!
You only pick on me because you’re afraid,
Afraid that I’m different, that I’m more of a man.
“You’re a scared little bitch, a dog that can’t bite.”
“And you’re a pussy disguised as a man, an insecure little brat.
If you got the balls, then hit me bitch,
Because I guarantee that if you hit me, you’re gonna wish you died in a ditch!”
We stare each other down waiting for the other to skip town,
Each minute was an hour, but little big-bitch backed down.
“Fuck you bro, you aint worth my time.”
“Good, now I don’t have to make a little girl cry.
Thanks for saving me the trouble. Come on back when you feel like being a man.
Come back when you do and we’ll talk then!”
I told you I’m different; I aint afraid of a damn thing
I can take a hit and I’ll make your ears ring.
Don’t hate me because I’m different because it’s people like me
That go out and change the world; Einstein was autistic and dyslexic
And look what he did.
If we were all the same, life wouldn’t have any flavor
If you don’t like it then piss off because I’m still gonna be different.
