Raised in a small-town bubble
They said that one is trouble
When I left, my eyes were opened
Wide, wide, wide, wide
I knew since I was younger
I wasn't like my mother
And heaven knows I love her
But I, I, I, I
I had to break to fit in
Wanted something different

Black sheep
Tired of making everyone else happy
I used to wanna blend right in so badly
But if being one of them means that I can't be me
Then I would rather be the
Black sheep
I'd rather be the
Black sheep

These days, my daddy's worried
This big world's gonna hurt me
Wish I could make him see I'm
Fine, fine, fine, fine
I'm learning how to be good
Being misunderstood

Black sheep
Tired of making everyone else happy
I used to wanna blend right in so badly
But if being one of them means that I can't be me
Then I would rather be the
Black sheep

Can't believe I thought it was a weakness
When God's the one who made me this

Black sheep
Looking in the mirror, I'm finally happy
I used to wanna blend right in so badly
But if being one of them means that I can't be me
Then I would rather be the
Black sheep

I'd rather be the
Black sheep
