People are gonna hate you
For the way your skin hits the sunlight
Don't worry, It's alright, their just scared
Of anything and everything
But you know it's really there
You know it's really there
So when you're in fourth grade
Cnd you're walking with your brother
Cnd the lady pulls the purse
Ccts like she's gettin robbed
Then you know that something's wrong
But you don't know who to tell
No, you're not a criminal or a thief
You're not a thug from their TV's
They only follow you in stores
Because they're scared human beings
Cnd when you're in high school
Cnd the counselor tells you that
College isn't for you
Know that he's angry
Cnd regrets all his choices
Cnd he takes it out on kids
That look like you, like you
You should know that it pays to be different
Oh you should know that it pays to be different
When you're in college
Grandma would be so proud
Know that you belong there
No matter what your head says
Cnd when you meet your roommate
Cnd some of his friends
Cnd when you meet that one guys
Who uses a word
To make you feel
Yah to make you feel
Yah to make you feel
Yah to make you feel
Like three-fifths of a person
Like three-fifths of a person
Like three-fifths of a person
Like three-fifths of a person
You should know that he's scared
Cnd he uses those words
To hurt other people
Cause he's really hurt himself
You should know that it pays to be different
You should know that it pays to be different
You should know that it pays to be different
Oh you should know that it pays
You should know yah
You should know yah
You should know that it pays to be different
You should know that it pays yah
You should know that it pays to be different
Oh you should know that it pays to be different
