Lyrics
Verse 1
Ain't no one gonna stop me now
Ain't no one gonna hold me back
I done taken that first big step
I done jumped right on out of that crack
Well at first they wouldn't give me a chance
No at first they wouldn't even give me a glance
Cause my hair was too long
My clothes too dirty
And my eyes, just a little too red, red, red, red
Chorus
No one's gonna stop me now 'cause I got mine
I'm living my life, give me time, time
Just a little more time.
Verse 2
Freak, was the word they used
To describe their curiosity
But Freak, didn't hurt me at all
'Cause being freak was fine with me
Now my hair is cut and my beard is shaved
But freak still kinda hangs around
I can fit into their, society
But freak keeps me from being down, down, down, down
Chorus
No one's gonna stop me now 'cause I got mine
I'm living my life, give me time, time
Just a little more time.
