[Refrain]
We're children lost and never seen
Nothing like the magazines
Raise your voice and lift a cry
This the way we'll never die
[Verse 1]
Now
Feet on the ground
You don't make a sound
'Cause no one ever seems to hear you out
Down
We keep falling down
But don't make a sound
'Cause no one ever seems to help you out
[Refrain]
We're children lost and never seen
Nothing like the magazines
Raise your voice and lift a cry
This the way we'll never die
[Chorus]
So we do it for the rejects
Do it for the wild ones
Do it for the people
Who can't even find the words to say
When they're not okay, ayy, ayy, ayy
Do it for the rejects
Do it for the wild ones
Do it for the people
Who can't even find the words to say
When they're not okay, ayy, ayy-ayy
[Post-Chorus]
Woo
We'll bring the light into the dark
Make peace with every broken heart
I'll do my best to make it okay, ayy, ayy-ayy, ayy
Na, nana, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na-na, na, na, na
Na, na-na, na
[Verse 2]
Yeah
You dropping out of everything that ever held you back
She had a baby to feed, that's why she absent in class
Unsupportive father always beat her down as a child
But shorty made it, who's laughing now?
Bitch
Ha, who's laughing now?
Yeah, Lil' Johnny, he a thug
Pocket full of drugs
And his mama not around, so he started repping 'cause
Only fourteen, Johnny got into a fight
Caught a body, now lil' Johnny facing twenty-five to life
Now that's part of the story, but he never got to tell his side
And motherfucker the revolution is televised
For everybody from the struggle who ain't never had a choice
Put your headphones in, I'll be the voice
I do it for
[Chorus]
The rejects
Do it for the wild ones
Do it for the people
Who can't even find the words to say
When they're not okay, ayy, ayy
Do it for the rejects
Do it for the wild ones
Do it for the people
Who can't even find the words to say
When they're not okay, ayy, ayy-ayy
[Post-Chorus]
We'll bring the light into the dark
Make peace with every broken heart
I'll do my best to make it okay, ayy, ayy-ayy, ayy
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
