Artist: Plan B Album: The Defamation of Strickland Banks Song: The Recluse Typed by: AZ Lyrics 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 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 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 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? 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? 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 Can't tell me nothin' They can't tell me nothin' They can't tell me nothin' 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 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 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 the space that I'm occupying There really ain't anything out there on the win they'd enjoy more more than see me crying So I do it in my room where none of these goons can see me though I know they've been trying I ain't cut out for this shit, I'm a coward I admit, I've never been no big ting 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 stops me from getting kicked in Even if it earns me this nickname in prison 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 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'
