My Homies That Don'T Know Me

My homies that don't know me from the outside in And wherever home is I feel outside in I feel inside out Wide open and shut I keep silent but inside me i am screaming aloud I keep trying to learn me how to figure me out Why do they stencil always try to figure me out Let me sink to the bottom Then they try to finger me out Sometimes the world feels scaled down like a figurine house And I'm a real boy Or perhaps the houses chew toy Now I know why they keep swallowing then spitting me out Yes, I am never about Yes I am hiding out loud To my homies that don't know me from the inside out
