letra de stranger at home - dr koul

[intro]
have you ever felt out of place in familiar surroundings?
felt misunderstood by those closest to you?
have you ever felt… like a stranger at home?

[chorus]

i’m a one man army, all on my own
i stand out in a crowd as if i’m always alone
people looking at me strange like i’m a stranger at home
you know what’s strange?
i’m considered even stranger at home
i’m a one man army, all on my own
i stand out in a crowd as if i’m always alone
people looking at me strange like i’m a stranger at home
you know what’s strange?
i’m considered even stranger at home

[verse 1]

i’m trying to get so much further
but it’s hard when there’s so much murder
so much death. poverty and so much debt
simultaneously distracted by gossip and stress
buy this, sell that, we’re distracted and divided
we want to do good but don’t know how to decide
if this is good and that’s bad or that’s ok
overstimulated, anaesthetized, we waste our days
is the president bad because he’s different
or more of the same?
our morals are f—-ed
we don’t know our roles in the game
matter of fact, we don’t even know who invented the game
who’s playing the game, who made the rules
and which rules you can break
who’s got the loopholes? who’s got the breaks?
who’s the sumo wrestling with bjj?
and who’s the cultural appropriator?
and who’s the serenader?
who is genuine and honest, and who is just a hater?

[chorus]

i’m a one man army, all on my own
i stand out in a crowd as if i’m always alone
people looking at me strange ’cause i’m a stranger at home
you know what’s strange?
i’m considered even stranger at home
i’m a one man army, all on my own
i stand out in a crowd as if i’m always alone
people looking at me strange ’cause i’m a stranger at home
you know what’s strange?
i’m considered even stranger at home

[verse 2]

nsa, modern age, war on terror, cointel
my son will bring a page from paulo freire to his show and tell
my daughter’s decorations will be malcolm
carlin, marley, martin on the balcony and angela davis
yeah i had a lot of privilege like having a dad’s love
influenced by the 5 percenters like nas was
i follow in the footsteps of the grandmasters
so now i won’t be depressed by the pressure like harr-ssment
i’m one with my contradictions, my mixed-up wisdom
i’m done thinking i’m dumb for being the odd one out
i’m on a mission: to have the most open position
and being modest if i overstep and get called out

[chorus]

[verse 3]

yo i’m a foreigner wherever i go
i fit in with the misfit nomads i plant roots and i grow
and even when performing a show
i’m internationally unknown when i be on the mic’
