QuinTell Wright - Global Misfit II: Urban Alien Featuring Travis A. Wright lyrics

rate me

Last time... was for all my people... who are

misunderstood worldwide; global misfits... so much so... they start feeling

Foreign... urban aliens. Yours truly... QuinTell Wright. Still look. Still

Listen.

We had colorful dreams but the powers that be

Told us save it for another day, 'nother day

Made our inner child give up, cast out

So we tend to look the other way, other way

She was taught pledge to the red, white and blue

Till her dad was red by the boys white in blue

Katrina's eyes flooded but what could she do?

A daddyles daughter, no pops, just the hoops

WNBA posters on her wall

Basketball trophies laid over her drawer

Prettygirl tomboy, life covered in scars

Rewinded to a time when she used to color and draw

In reality, her mama sells herself like a store

High school rumors 'bout it is crushing her sore

Louder than college scholarships knocking her door

She's gotta pray hard just to elevate from it

Or lose power like Egyptians took from Mubarick

Got her twisted like Daiquiris, drastically

Piling up problems B-I-G-er than Wallace

City girl just lost it in a world so lawless

He was taught pledge to the flag swastika

Supremacist family, raised awfully rough

They couldn't see through colorblind binoculars

And hated all minority friends that he loved

Rebelled, Nazi couldn't be with that

Skinhead grew his hair like a Chia Pet

Fam disowned him, seen as a traitor

Kicked out, center finger up all you haters

Moved with a black friend, trying to get his weight up

Working long hours, couldn't pick his pay up

Old checks piling, papa guarded trailer

Rifle cocked and ready, if he ever came up

Now he envies the birds casue he ain't fly

And he's praying to Christ on the main line

Piling up problems B-I-G-er than Wallace

Country boy just lost in a world so lawless

Just take a step back and look out the window

At the world that we've created

There's so much change that we can make happen,

But we've got to go out and make it

So keep your head high, reach towards the sky,

And fly

Look whose trending now, Steve turned to Stephon

Women follow twitter style, now I'm socially on

Started in the hood, moved out, still it's in me

The real hood, not tv

Where the Summer ghetto kids chase ice cream trucks

Pop fire hydrants open, make it rain like bucks

Ambulence sirens is a morning alarm

CPD's locking brothers up like a farm

Even Stevie wonders babe, when we gon' see?

Still finding myself, Nemo lives in me

No matter how grown, still a child at heart

So when my body act up, please examine my heart

Father God wrap your arms, don't leave me, don't leave me

Don't leave me, while I'm stuck inside a world that tries to deceive me,

Deceive me, deceive me
