Chase March and ScrmmbledEggs came together to record this song for World Autism Day. As neurodivergent artists, they wanted to make an anthem for anyone who feels awkward at times. You are not alone.
Everybody Feels This Way sometimes.
Paige Layle’s book, “But Everyone Feels This Way: How an Autism Diagnosis Saved My Life” inspired this song and made Chase think of the sample flip. It is featured prominently in the music video.
World Autism Day is April 2nd
April is also Autism Acceptance Month
We hope you find these lyrics inspiring, the song catchy, and the video fun to watch.

LYRICS
(Chase March)
I feel alone
I don’t know why
I wanna connect
I wanna be that guy
Who’s outgoing, popular, has tons of friends
Not this bloke just saying the wrong thing again
And stepping on the landmines that others avoid
Like they have bright warning signs
Which is the opposite of how they’re designed
It’s true, everyone feels awkward at times
But I felt like a weirdo, my whole life
Never knew why, just live with the strife
Try to understand
Plan my part
Be the man
Feeling dumber as I get older
Cause most forgot
Or never saw the connections that float all around
It’s obvious to me you’re not trying to see
We can’t think and feel that differently
Can we?
Chorus
(ScrmmbledEggs)
I can’t make a connection
Or collect my impressions
Like I’m severed at the head
Or I’m stuck in the nexsus
Erupt the aggression
Disrupt my intentions
And all of it because of my corrupted perception divergence into urgency
When none was expected
Never been on the in
And always un-rested
Takes a lot out of me
To get up and get it
If I really had the choice I would never collect it
You have to address it
You have to respect it
And please for the love God don’t try to correct it
This has always been a part of you
Don’t ever forget it
It’s what makes you who you are
Watch the others respect it
Not down with the stressin
The frowns, or obsession
That gets you down
Be the furthest from heaven
Just be yourself
Love the wealth of the lesson
That when you act fake
It compounds the depression
