Lyrics:

[VERSE 1]
You bust lead? So do I
Except mine impregnates the page giving birth to thoughts that unify
You fuck little girls, I make love to women
My words uplift, yours are poisonous like venom
I'm an M.C, you're a rapper
I'm as real as they come, while half the guys you idolize are just actors
You run from commitment, I remain loyal
You call women bitches, I call them queens because they're royal
You make rap songs, I make soul music
When God speaks through rhythm, will you go to it?
I save my cash, yours you blow through it
I say your child's special, you say he's so stupid
I'm pouring my heart out in everything written
You're scared, you'll look soft, heart remains hidden
Yo, on touchy subjects, nerves I stay hittin'
But I ain't better than you, I just think different

[HOOK]
Is the glass half full or half empty?
It's based on your perspective quite simply
We're the same and we're not, know what I'm saying? Listen
Son, I ain't better than you, I just think different
(bis)

(VERSE 2)
My family run things, while you run your jewelry
My people pop lock, you tough guys pop to me
You rock gems, I drop gems
You Xerox copying, while I originate material to stimulate
Positive thought patterns when the chosen start gathering
We bar none; yo I got jokes, you are one
I'm out doing it while you talk about it
I'm constantly in the mix, while you walk around it
You try, I do; I'm wise, you're clueless
I get the job done, you fail and make excuses
I'm a gentleman, your behavior's abusive
I'm patient... you're jumping the gun, false start
You're caught up in dress codes, I'll shop at Walmart
Sucker, I'm all heart, you're half hearted
You suckas are vandals, we're graff' artists
Thought you had the last laugh but we laugh hardest

[HOOK]

[VERSE 3]
You fall in love with body parts, I connect mentally
With my female counterpart before we bond physically
Cats I chill with rap about revolution
While you rap about drug abuse and distribution
You wanna be like Mike, well I wanna be me
My queen's hard to obtain while yours is easy
We both from Maryland but be reppin DC
We all front sometimes, that's how MCs be
My word is bond and yours is worthless
You're mainstream, I'm beneath the surface
I stay working hard while you're hardly workin'
All you want is money and your dick sucked, are you certain?
I want a better world for our seeds to live in
I put faith in myself, not the system
Yo we trying to travel so why you making pit stops?
You cats is rap, and I'm Hip Hop!

[HOOK]
