Born To Be Different

Yeah
Look no matter what happens
We just gotta keep it, you know
You could fall like ten times
15 times you just gotta keep it rollin'
Ayo this shit man this is how you do it
Yeah
Born to be Different

Shit I was born to be different
Shouldn't make it this far, but I did it
Knew my mission was definitive
Accomplish anything
I wish I knew it as a teenager
Shooting with no weapon
I was shooting for the stars
But my movie wasn't looking too good
Temperature rising
Cooking the shit that I shouldn't have cooked
It's a celebration
Coz I'm Mr. Overlooked
Overjealous over-shook rappers
Better take a look
I'm giving you the sec-ret magic
Bish you welcome.

The movie opens with the setting
A drone flies over the city
To get the shot that they show you in the opening credits
It zooms in on a home off of Main Ave
Two kids, and a two parent home with a stained past
They split
But baby boy had a gift
That's why I'm mad to this day
When they leave me offa they list
This passion doesn't exist no more
Man I swear these kids don't do it like this no more
Took my momma to Scotland to see the Loch Ness
Meanwhile I got my own monsters I'm trying to process
Guess it's part of the process
Waiting on my title shot
I done seen my idols shot
Huddled on the block
Where writers blame it on writer's block
Guess the pain was too strong
So we got our Goose on
Mixed with Arizona tea
Dreamin' of these winters in Tucson
Seen friends married
Some went to heaven
But I don't want my flowers from a funeral or wedding
Let me smell them now

We' re all born to be different
But in a funny way that's what makes us all the same
You see the yellow line that separates the lanes
Is the same line that separates joy and pain
And it's strange
Because my drive never ran out
I took the scenic route and never had to ask for a hand out
Why try to fit in when you're a standout?
Shit
I was Born to be Different.
