Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, yeah, they call me the recluse
'Cause I don't go outside for nothin'
No one is gonna make me leave this room
Oh, no, they can't tell me nothin', no way
[Verse 2]
You see, I'm being a fool
Yes, so I don't care about being cool
What's it to you?
If I just stay here in this hole that I boarded into
[Verse 3]
Oh, yeah, they call me the recluse
'Cause I don't go outside for nothin'
No one is gonna make me leave this room
Oh, no, they can't tell me nothin', no way
[Verse 4]
You see, I ain't thinkin' clear
Yes, so I dunno, I'm feeling sorry for myself
Who asked you to interfere?
Would you really know what is or isn't good for my health?
[Verse 5]
Why don't you leave me alone?
I ain't hurtin' 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?
[Verse 6]
Oh, yeah, they call me the recluse
'Cause I don't go outside for nothin'
No one is gonna make me leave this room
Oh, no, they can't tell me nothin', no way
No way, yeah
[Verse 7]
Can't tell me nothin'
They can't tell me nothin'
They can't tell me nothin'
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
I ain't trying to impress anyone in this cesspit jail
I just don't care, I ain't gotta smell fresh for a woman
So I'm blessed not washing my skin or my hair
[Verse 10]
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 rocker wall moves 'cause you know I've gotten used to that space
That I'm occupying
[Verse 11]
There really ain't anything out there on the win
They'd enjoy more than see my crying
So I do it in my room where none of these goons can see me
Though I know they've been trying
[Verse 12]
I ain't cut out for this shit, I'm a coward, I admit
I never been no big thing, 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 stope me from getting kicked in
Even if It earns me this nickname in prison
[Verse 13]
Oh, yeah, they call me the recluse
'Cause I don't go outside for nothin'
No one is gonna make me leave this room
Oh, no, they can't tell me nothin', no way
[Verse 14]
Oh, yeah, they call me the recluse
'Cause I don't go outside for nothin'
No one is gonna make me leave this room
Oh, no, they can't tell me nothin'
