Wallflower
Krizz Kaliko feat. Tech N9ne Lyrics

Must be hard to be able to prove to everybody you know that
It must be difficult to justify oneself to everyone around

Maybe you never really had to know how
Perhaps you never had to experience this situation before

How it feels to be inferior to you
How it feels to be considered lower in status compared to you

If it only mattered, it can only be tragic
If only this one thing mattered, it would only lead to a sorrowful outcome

To let a woman fall at your feet, just a piece of meat
Treating a woman as an object to be disposed of after use

Yeah, when life gives you lemon give me lemonade
When life gives you a sour experience, make the most of it

And I could surely be up but I been afraid
I could definitely rise, but fear has been holding me back

You are the one, you are the one
Referring to someone as the most important person in their life

So what you want, can you get it done?
Asking if someone can achieve what they want

I'd like to put ya rubber mask in the fire but you never went
Expressing a desire to destroy someone's fake persona, but it never made a difference

This is me and I don't even dance
Declaring that he is being himself and not conforming to societal expectations

And I won't take the chance
Refusing to take risks and instead playing it safe

To let you put that note on my back, kick me in my pants
Not allowing someone to take advantage of him and humiliate him

And I don't even know
Admitting to being oblivious to certain experiences

What it feels like to glow
Not knowing what it's like to feel confident and stand out

I leave that up to y'all
Allowing others to take the spotlight and enjoy the attention

I'll be a flower on the wall
Choosing to blend in and not draw attention to oneself

Must be hard when you know they gonna knock ya door down
It must be tough when you already anticipate criticism and negativity

Tell me which one of you gonna come now
Challenging those who criticize to come forward and confront the situation

And you got them boys fighting for you
Having several men pursue you and fight over you

And you so fine, so fine
Acknowledging someone's beauty and attractiveness

And I'm so blind, so blind
Feeling blinded by the other's attractiveness and not seeing their true nature

Tell me how does it feel for you to win every time
Asking how it feels to always come out on top and never lose

Then I see, she don't even dance
Observing that the person in question chooses not to conform to social norms

She won't take the chance
Refusing to take risks and prefers a safe approach

To let you put the note on her back, kick her in the pants
Resisting being objectified and humiliated by others

And she don't even know
Admitting to being oblivious to certain experiences

What it feels like to glow
Not knowing what it's like to feel confident and stand out

Leave it up to y'all
Choosing to let others take the spotlight and enjoy the attention

I'll be the flower on the wall
Choosing to blend in and not draw attention to oneself

I used to think it must be nice
Remembering a time when he thought it would be great to have popularity

To be the popular dude in school and duck these fights
Imagining a scenario where you don't have to fight for respect in school

They pick it with me cause I'm bummy with scuffy Nikes
Being bullied for not having money or nice things

The cheerleader I wanted to date had dumped me twice
Being rejected by someone he deemed desirable

You know the ladies they love me psych
Being loved only for his status and not his true self

They needed me just like a Sunday school must need Christ
Being exploited for what he can offer rather than being appreciated for who he is

Always down on my luck, please life
Feeling like he is constantly experiencing misfortune

Can you give me something brighter when I uncuss these dykes
Asking life for something better when he overcomes his past struggles

Rolled 'em, pressed a lot of records and then I sold 'em
Making and selling records in the music industry

Then it screwed how I posed and turned Lamar Odom
His success and lifestyle leading to problems similar to those experienced by Lamar Odom

Dollars I can't fold them, guess I showed 'em
Bragging about the money he has earned and the success he has achieved

Those who never chose him got holes all on my scrotum
Vulgarly saying that those who never supported him are now regretting their mistake

Shut off, closed out, all of them get the synonym
Choosing to ignore and cut off those who didn't believe in him

Do you remember them two squares in school,
Asking if they remember the two unpopular kids in school

You know Aaron and Chris and now they blew up and rapping with Eminem?
Noting how those two kids are now successful rappers with Eminem

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I 'member them
Remembering those two kids from school
