just to be different

i feel like there is no need for conversation

i wonder if the things i did were just to be different

i would rather reveal myself than my situation

i wonder if the things i did were just to be different

look

look

look. see

i don't trus' no one

so stubborn -

i could dream a thousand paths

wake-up an' walk a ol' one. an' i follow wherever it take me

insteada' wherever the crew go like traylee. they see distinguished

i see a nigga erasin' that fine line between crazy an' genius. got the jewels out

see 'em on my colorado shit

i'd rather put the suit on an' not follow it. ay'thing is perception

ay'thing is deception

when niggas fuck wit' 'em 'cause i be the exception

i got a warm reception way before any song hit

i think too outside of the box ta' be cornered

too real ta' be fickle

grounded

but too fly ta' meet a nigga in the middle

too big ta' be belittled. wise way beyond my years

here's the motto of a manchild: why try ta' fit in when you a standout?

i feel like there is no need for conversation

i wonder if the things i did were just to be different

uh

you in that mood yet?

why not?

look. they said i had ta' make music that would have the kids feinin'

screamin'

make nuttin' wit' a meanin'

i ain't know the meanin'. they told me go hollywood

for a split-second thought i prolly' could

but pollee on

would i be understood?

tol' me even if you not able ta' cop cable

ay'time you hit the club you better have a table. tol' me they would take me out my worse

tol' me image is everything"
