Nujabes Think Different Lyrics

(VERSE 1)
You bust lead? So do I.
Except mine impregnates the page giving birth to thoughts that unify You f___ little girls. I make love to women
My words uplift, yours are poisonous like venom
Im an M.C. Youre a rapper
Im as real as they come,
while half the guys you idolize are just actors
You run from commitment I remain loyal
You call women b____es. 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 childs special you say hes so stupid
Im pouring my heart out in everything written
You're scared you'll look soft heart remains hidden
On touchy subjects nerves I stay hittin'
I aint 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
I aint better than you I just think different
(REPEAT HOOK)

(VERSE 2)
My fam run things, while you run your jewelry
My people pop lock you tough guys pop toolies
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
Im out doing it while you talk about it
Im constantly in the mix, while you walk around it
You try, i do Im wise youre clueless.
I get the job done you fail and make excuses
Im a gentlemen youre behaviors abusive
Im patient... youre jumping the gun false start!
You're caught up in dress codes I'll shop at Walmart
Sucker Im all heart youre half hearted!
You suckas are vandals we graf artist!
Thought you had the last laugh but we laugh hardest.

(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 you're d___ 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 HipHop!

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
I aint better than you I just think different
(REPEAT HOOK)
