[00:02.13]Uh. Yo, check it out. (What’s up?)
[00:06.57] I want you to pay attention to this, know’m saying? Listen up, alright?
[00:09.50](Ughh. Alright, man, alright). Yo
[00:10.45]You bust lead? So do I
[00:12.25]Except mine impregnates the page, giving birth to thoughts that unify
[00:15.48]You **** little girls; I make love to women
[00:17.92]My words uplift; yours are poisonous, like venom
[00:20.41]I'm an emcee, you're a rapper
[00:22.15]I'm as real as they come, while half the guys you idolize are just actors
[00:25.75]You run from commitment; I remain loyal
[00:27.64]You call women *******; I call ‘em queens ‘cause they're royal
[00:30.63]You make rap songs; I make soul music
[00:32.83]When God speaks through rhythm, will you go to it?
[00:35.27]Yo, I save my cash; yours, you blow through it
[00:37.72]I say, “Your child's special”; you say, “He's so stupid”
[00:40.21]I'm pouring my heart out in everything written
[00:42.76]You're scared, you look soft, heart remains hidden
[00:45.20]Ayyo, on touchy su**ects, nerves I stay hitting
[00:47.79]But I ain't better than you; I just think different
[00:50.49]Is the glass half-full or half-empty?
[00:52.83]It's based on your perspective, quite simply
[00:55.18]We're the same and we're not; know what I'm saying? Listen

[01:07.63]Son, I ain't better than you, I just think different
[01:10.29]My fam run things while you run your jewelry
[01:12.92]Yo, my peeps will pop-lock; you tough guys pop toolies
[01:15.77]You rock gems, I drop gems;?Xerox copy ‘em
[01:18.21]While I originate material to stimulate
[01:20.71]Positive thought patterns when the chosen start gathering
[01:23.05]We bar none;?Yo, I got jokes, you are one
[01:25.63]I'm out doing it while you talk about it
[01:27.98]I'm constantly in the mix while you walk around it
[01:30.62]You try, I do; While wise, you're clueless
[01:33.17]I get the job done; you fail and make excuses
[01:35.95]I'm a gentleman, your behavior's abusive
[01:38.19]Yo, I'm patient; you're jumping the gun—false start
[01:41.04]You're caught up in dress codes; I'll shop at Walmart
[01:43.58]Sucker, I'm all heart, and you're half-hearted
[01:46.08]Yo, you suckers are vandals; We're graff' artists
[01:48.82][01:48.17]Thought you had the last laugh, but we laugh hardest
[01:51.01]Is the glass half-full or half-empty?

[02:07.93]Son, I ain't better than you, I just think different
[02:10.52]You fall in love with body parts; I connect mentally
[02:13.17]With my female counterpart before we bond physically
[02:15.81]Cats I chill with rap about revolution
[02:18.35]While you rap about drug abuse and distribution
[02:20.84]You wanna be like Mike;?yo, I wanna be me
[02:23.23]My queen's hard to obtain, and yours is easy
[02:25.47]We both from Maryland but we’re repping D.C
[02:28.11]We all front sometimes—that's how emcees be
[02:30.86]My word is bond and yours is worthless
[02:33.39]You're mainstream;?I'm beneath the surface
[02:35.84]I stay working hard, while you're hardly working
[02:38.18]All you want is money and your **** sucked—are you certain?
[02:40.92]Yo, I want a better world for our seeds to live in
[02:43.21]I put faith in myself, not the system
[02:45.90]Yo, we’re trying to travel, so why you making pit stops?
[02:48.69]You cats is rap, and I'm hip hop
