You Don’t Know Lyrics
[Intro]
What up, Mac Miller?
(Perked Out Beats)
Shut up, hate when they do that
Allday
[Chorus]
And they used to call me ugly
Now it seems funny
Looking back, now I never would have thought I'd get this far
And they used to call me chubby
Guess I got lucky
So unless you were around all the way back then at the start
Shut the fuck up, you don't know
[Verse 1]
Did you know me as a fat lonely kid and
My only way to smile was a black Sony Discman?
School grades low, I'm in the hallways always
Tagging things taking out my agonies in the wrong ways
You don't know my pain, I don't know your pain
You weren't there before the main meal for the entrée
On the bus nervous and I'm huddled with my bag
And the older kids tell me that I'm ugly and I'm fat
Every day I go to school I was fucking up so bad
Everybody wants to father me except my fucking dad
And I don't even mind 'cause my life is really nice
But don't act like you know me if you've only seen me twice
'Cause the same ones calling me names once
Wanna take photos and have conversations
And now that's just life and we're smiling for the cameras
Until we get old and they no longer flatter us
[Chorus]
And they used to call me ugly
Now it seems funny
Looking back, now I never would have thought I'd get this far
And they used to call me chubby
Guess I got lucky
So unless you were around all the way back then at the start
Shut the fuck up, you don't know
[Verse 2]
Did you know I that I prefer to be alone?
But I never am, 'cause I'm petrified of silence
Did you know that I'm eternally alone?
'Cause my body can never be the same place my mind is
Can't take a breath cause I'm just so anxious
Can't stop drinking, I mean just to manage
Everybody's talking shit, I can't understand it
It's kind of like they speak another language
That I don't know; and I laugh along with their jokes
But I'm not even listening, I'm off on my own
I throw parties full of strangers to feel worry-free
But I don't wanna see them all, I just wanna sleep
So I sit out on the lawn of the house across the street
And only go inside once everybody leaves
And the clock's ticking louder, I only notice now
'Cause without all the people, it's like time is slowing down
It's like time is slowing down
It's like time is slowing down
It's like time is slowing down
Time is slowing down
[Chorus]
And they used to call me ugly
Now it seems funny
Looking back, now I never would have thought I'd get this far
(But look how far I came)
And they used to call me chubby
Guess I got lucky
So unless you were around all the way back then at the start
Shut the fuck up, you don't know
