    To those asking, it's an isaac hayes sample (Which portishead also sampled) from the song Ike's rap II

      Alessia Cara Tricky, too! "Hell Is 'Round The Corner". I love Portishead's use of it, but for me, Tricky's flip is the one that gets deep in my bones. I'm really diggin' on what you've done with it, as well, just upon the first listen. Gonna listen about a thousand more times now.

    *LYRICS* / *LETRA* 💕
    I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
    Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent
    Truly, I ain't got no business here
    But since my friends are here
    I just came to kick it but really
    I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
    With people who don't even care about my well being
    I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend
    So you can go back, please enjoy your party
    I'll be here, somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
    With this boy who's hollering I can hardly hear
    Over this music I don't listen to and I don't wanna get with you
    So tell my friends that I'll be over here
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
    An anti social pessimist but usually I don't mess with this
    And I know you mean only the best and
    Your intentions aren't to bother me
    But honestly I'd rather be
    Somewhere with my people we can kick it and just listen
    To some music with the message (like we usually do)
    And we'll discuss our big dreams
    How we plan to take over the planet
    So pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand
    That I'll be here
    Not there in the kitchen with the girl
    Who's always gossiping about her friends
    So tell them I'll be here
    Right next to the boy who's throwing up 'cause
    He can't take what's in his cup no more
    Oh God why am I here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Hours later congregating next to the refrigerator
    Some girl's talking 'bout her haters
    She ain't got none
    How did it ever come to this
    I shoulda never come to this
    So holla at me I'll be in the car when you're done
    I'm standoffish, don't want what you're offering
    And I'm done talking
    Awfully sad it had to be that way
    So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
    And I'm standing by the TV with my beanie low
    Yo I'll be over here
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh

    Reminds me of my college days, and being dragged out to house parties by friends. I'd usually seek out that one person in the corner of the room who felt the same as me (would rather be at home or anywhere but there, probably equally introverted), and have more deeper conversations with them--maybe trying to find somewhere that isn't as obnoxiously loud.

    This song is amazing. Listening to it helps remind me I'm not the only one going through a rough patch. I guess if you need to get over something or someone, you just gotta learn how to compartmentalize all of your feelings about the situation and do the only things that make you happy, no one else. Eventually these things will lead to a better life and better people, it just sucks because sometimes its way easier to just sit around and mope, feeling sorry for yourself. In this world full of impermanence, why cheat yourself out of experiencing everything this amazing life has to offer just because someone or something had a negative effect on you. Take that as a lesson and become a better person from it, that way you can possibly help someone else having a hard time and maybe, just maybe find true happiness. Stay strong, and keep your head up!

    My 19 yo son just shared this song with me. You have a beautiful voice & it was very moving! :) He told how he'd happened to hear it on the radio (we generally don't do mainstream media) & how it brought chills to him listening. It did to me as well. I hope the fact this song is popular enough to get airtime, will awaken others to the realization they're not alone, and to not be afraid to speak up & go against the mainstream. Realize the distractions are there & there for a reason. Best of everything to you, good luck, & keep making those plans with your friends to help change the world! :) ✌

      This is sampled from an old Isaac Hayes song. Portishead also sampled that same song for one of their tunes. That being said, I like what Cara did with it---this was actually based on a party she went to, and decided she didn't want to be there. So she wrote this from experience---I love it, too.

    Heres the lyrics my beautiful people
    (I guess right now you've got the last laugh)
    I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
    Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent
    Truly, I ain't got no business here
    But since my friends are here
    I just came to kick it but really
    I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
    With people who don't even care about my well-being
    I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend
    So you can go back, please enjoy your party
    I'll be here, somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
    With this boy who's hollering I can hardly hear
    Over this music I don't listen to and I don't wanna get with you
    So tell my friends that I'll be over here
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
    An anti-social pessimist but usually I don't mess with this
    And I know you mean only the best and
    Your intentions aren't to bother me
    But honestly I'd rather be
    Somewhere with my people we can kick it and just listen
    To some music with the message (like we usually do)
    And we'll discuss our big dreams
    How we plan to take over the planet
    So pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand it
    That I'll be here
    Not there in the kitchen with the girl
    Who's always gossiping about her friends
    So tell them I'll be here
    Right next to the boy who's throwing up 'cause
    He can't take what's in his cup no more
    Oh God why am I here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Hours later congregating next to the refrigerator
    Some girl's talking 'bout her haters
    She ain't got none
    How did it ever come to this
    I shoulda never come to this
    So holla at me I'll be in the car when you're done
    I'm standoffish, don't want what you're offering
    And I'm done talking
    Awfully sad it had to be that way
    So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
    And I'm standing by the TV with my beanie low
    Yo I'll be over here
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
    I ask myself what am I doing here?
    Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
    And I can't wait till we can break up outta here
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh

    I really appreciate your song, it's real and classic. I can relate because I have never been the partying type of lady and I remember feeling that way when I was younger, I was uncomfortable at parties but never told anyone until I met my husband so your lyrics are real to me. I respect your transparency because it can be difficult for young people to tell their friends that they feel out of place!!! I shared your song with my sons because it is great, clean, relevant material for today, they enjoyed it also. God bless you, stay focused, and never let anyone lead you away from you! Listeners respect what's real and it helps to heal! As a mother and educator, I applaud you, wish you the best, and encourage you to always pursue education in whatever your interests are. Learn the business, it produces longevity!!!!
