I Ain't You - Simon Webbe

Some days when I was young and I was dressed up as I do

Not looking like the rest but, what I felt as cool

They said that I was the one who was playing a fool for attention

I’d stand out the way that I do

They use to pick and tease not take me seriously

But see I did not care cos we were only kids

So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me

But developing my style, looking right as I did

They say that I don’t eat

And that I don’t get no sleep

They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

Here are reunion and I meet them same old kids

Don’t recognise their kids but do remember me

So back then they did laugh and make fun out of me

But developing my style looking right as I did

They say that I don’t eat

And that I don’t get no sleep

They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak

They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

So my story to you is stand up and be proud

If you’re quiet then that’s cool

If your not shout it loud

They say that I don’t eat

And that I don’t get no sleep

(It's all about foolish kids)

They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak

They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak

They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

They say that I don’t eat

And that I don’t get no sleep

(It's all about foolish kids)

They say that I ain’t cool and that I look like a freak

They say that I don’t know and that my mind is too weak

They say my body’s slow and say I ain’t got no beat

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

I said I ain’t you and you are not me

We are who we are let us be

What a foolish thing to say
