The Recluse

[Hook] Oh yeah they call me the recluse    Cause I don’t go outside for nothing No one is gonna make me leave this room     Oh no they can’t tell me nothing no way [Verse 1] You see I’m being a fool     It gets so I don’t care about being cool What’s it to you?     If I just stay here in this hole that I’m boarded into [Hook] Oh yeah they call me the recluse    Cause I don’t go outside for nothing No one is gonna make me leave this room     Oh no they can’t tell me nothing no way [Verse 2] You see I ain’t thinking clear     It gets so I don’t know I’m feeling sorry for myself Who asked you to interfere?      How would you really know what is or isn’t good for my health? Why don’t you leave me alone?      I ain’t hurting nobody why you up in my face? Get up out my soul      Why can’t you just let me get through my time this way? [Hook] Oh yeah they call me the recluse    Cause I don’t go outside for nothing No one is gonna make me leave this room     Oh no they can’t tell me nothing no way [Verse 3] Sitting here by myself looking mad at myself  Thinking I don’t wanna go out there I don’t need no help looking after myself  I got everything I need right here I ain’t trying to impress anyone  In this cesspit jail I just don’t care I ain’t gotta smell fresh for no woman  So I’m blessed not washing my skin or my hair  They can call me a recluse they ain’t gonna remove  Or cut me loose from this place I’m locked in hiding Like a rock I won’t move cause you know  I’ve gotten used to the space that I’m occupying There really ain’t anything out there but the wind  They’d enjoy more than see me crying So I do it in my room where none of these goons can see me  Though I know they’ve been trying I ain’t cut out for this shit I’m a coward I admit  I’ve never been no big ting The thought of killing makes me sick  But I don’t wanna be no victim no way not Strickland So I just stay in my cell like I’m bricked in  And hope that stops me from getting kicked in Even if it earns me this nickname in prison [Hook] Oh yeah they call me the recluse    Cause I don’t go outside for nothing No one is gonna make me leave this room     Oh no they can’t tell me nothing no way
