Lyrics of 'Ugly Duckling' by Tech N9ne

I'm this way cause I got up, and got when
I was the oddest to demolish the hottest
scholars with all of this God-ish product,
Call it way polished, I jotted, dotted then
they got it bollocks'd, stayed modest but brought
it psychotic thought, it's raw and sick
But everybody didn't wanna give a nigga the time of the day,
how will I ever reach another when I'm in the grave,
I gotta be different to get rich with the pay,
say, say, say what you want about N9na,
The one who's wishin me comin up missin that one is a dreamer,
Callin me ugly I laugh, cause I'm rough as rugby and fast,
Industry's chubby and flabby, you look sick, pudgy and crass,
Now your chick wanna hug me and smash, and look lovely in cash,
Instead of muggy and classy, you act like we was buddies in class,
Got my painted face, ain't it great?
Really illuminated made with entertainer's space,
Better to bring it straight and gain it late than aim at fake,
Fame, as for my brain it's fate that I strained at fate and became the great, Yates

No Love or nothin, just blood and sufferin for the ugly duckling,
No Love or nothin, just blood and sufferin for the ugly duckling,
Trust me, trust me nothing, trust me, trust me nothing,
Is worse than knowing you're beautiful but get treated like an ugly duckling,
Trust me, trust me nothing, trust me, trust me nothing,
Is worse than knowing you're beautiful but get treated like an ugly duckling,

[Aqualeo:]
Ever since I came out the womb and I was birthed to the planet,
It's like the earth couldn't stand it, I was just worthless abandoned,
So I write verses in cursive to try to cope with the damage,
Citizens gave me (spanish expletive I don't know) hear my curses in spanish,
Hoppin in hearses then vanish, though not the first to be banished,
Or ostracized cause I prophecised how the churches is scandelous,
See my words are just man-ish, perfectly perched on a canvas,
Paintin a picture with scriptures with my fellow dirty from Kansas,
So I'm a spit on the wax and flip on a track and spit all my pain,
Rather than give me a gat, empty the mac, shatter and split off my brain,
People are strange, Hoisters be spendin a dime on the top tryna get on a chains,
I have to devise me a plot to then capitalize on my stock and then get me some change,
See all the hate that they gave me and feel my passionate speech,
Made me react on the track and start whoopin ass on the beat,
So since I'm Rudolph my nose is up like I flew off the grease,
Head in the sky, hella fly and high like I blew off the suite,

No Love or nothin, just blood and sufferin for the ugly duckling,
No Love or nothin, just blood and sufferin for the ugly duckling,
Trust me, trust me nothing, trust me, trust me nothing,
Is worse than knowing you're beautiful but get treated like an ugly duckling,
Trust me, trust me nothing, trust me, trust me nothing,
Is worse than knowing you're beautiful but get treated like an ugly duckling,

It's about goddamned time, go ahead shine the light over here on the darkness,
What ya thought? We were gonna play dead, roll over and add up losses,
Damn fools, no more playin cool politicin with the rules eat fools in the caucus
