Rumors

[Hook]
Heard about the rumors
I'ma run ’em out
I ain't worried 'bout the word of mouth
I know the truth
In one ear and out the other, buddy, who are you?
I know exactly who I am, like a hula hoop
It’s going round, going round

I'ma run em out
I ain't worried 'bout the word of mouth
I know the truth
In one ear and out the other, buddy, who are you?
I know exactly who I am
Yeah, I heard about the rumors and I don't give a damn
I'ma run em out

[Verse 1]
Lost a friend to the bullshit
Andy got up in her ear and told her to remove me
Told her that I used her
Treated her like trash
Turned out that boy is a liar now she put him in the past
How long can a lie last?

Almost lost the whole friendship
Luckily, it's mended
I done seen a lot, dunno what I should begin with
Back in the day, I had rumors on the internet
High school, 10th grade, two girls said I wasn't shit

Created a Xanga, shittin’ on my reputation
Said I got repeatedly rejected, born to be a failure
In the library they printed out every word
Got passed around, whole school knew I was a nerd

Little did they know I felt ugly since an early age
This was just another setback, yeah I felt ashamed
The principal read it, it was such an epidemic
They banned the internet for a semester

[Hook]
Had to run ’em out
I ain't worried ’bout the word of mouth
I know the truth
In one ear and out the other, buddy, who are you?
I know exactly who I am, like a hula hoop
It's going 'round, going 'round

I’ma run em out
I ain't worried 'bout the word of mouth
I know the truth
In one ear and out the other, buddy, who are you?
I know exactly who I am
Yeah, I heard about the rumors and I don't give a damn
I'ma run em out

[Verse 2]
I heard about yours, too
Didn't know what to believe
Can I ask you directly?
I'd never ever think
You'd do that
Damn, it still hurt when I think about
What were you thinking?
What the fuck were you drinking?

Never thought you'd take advantage
Of another person's body
Goddamn, yeah, it's hard but I wanna be your friend
Yeah I wanna be there for you
And I know you going through it
Wanna see you like a brother
I can't bring myself to do it

Know you going through some pain but we'll never be the same
Can you feel where I'm coming from
Hope you understand
It'll take time to heal
But you gotta just admit it
You can hide behind the rumors
But I'm glad that she didn't

Yeah, she hit me
She told me all about it
You were with me
I stood outside for an hour
Took my ass home
I see you as a coward
Took advantage of a friend
I can't even be around you

Had to run him out
