Rejects

Reminiscing on those days, late for class, eating breakfast
Throwing on that Hot Topic shirt that's on my dresser
High school Richie was ignored and rejected
Hoping for the day I get adored and respected
See before I started rapping, getting lots of love
I used to be that kid all the girls called a scrub
They used to point and laugh when they see me walking up
I just took it as experience, so I chopped it up
And now they popping up at all my shows looking mad
Cause they know I'm the best guy that they never had
Used to get rejected but I'm really glad
Cause it's true what they say, nice guys finish last

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect

See, I've been a nerd since birth
And I used to think that being a nerd was such a curse
Trying to act like the cool kids, even rehearse
Until I figured it was cooler to spit the truth in this verse
Listen, if you're really trying to shoot for the stars
You should never change and remain true to who you are
And don't try to chase the clothes, jewels, and cars
Just take it from me, you'll go far
Just follow your heart
Yea and just ignore the haters
They just mad cause they know that nerds make more paper
They just haters cause we greater
There's no stopping us like Charlie's glass elevator

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect

Hands up if you have a high GPA
And keep 'em high if you play a lot of video games
Now wave 'em side to side if you love anime
Now say goodbye to everybody who wants to hate

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect

This one's for the social rejects
Where my nerds and my freaks and geeks at
It's about time that we got some respect
It's about time that we got some respect
