Different

In a cesspool of greed and vanity fiends
 In search of success in the city where insanity breed
 I sow seeds my soul bleeds beyond the smoke screen
 Cold feet stroking my ego until I O.D
 Codeine fixes juggling a queen and mistress
 The king of mischief I'm cursed just for being gifted
 Friendship and business it gets harder just to tell the difference
 Some adopt a victim mentality and they get vindictive
 Loads of women sending nudes and acting loose
 And there's attraction big titties and asses that affect my mood
 Gotta a Buddha master not to give in
 Super human shit as if my dick was never winning
 Smiles and gimmicks when they meet ya they wanna feature
 Remember when I used to be ignored right by speaker?
 Reality can change quick overnight ya name is lit
 Face the music, if it's my fate I'm not afraid of it
 Caught yourself a break now you winning
 Now they looking at you different
 Got yourself together you in business
 Now they looking at you different
 Got it popping accosted by pretty women
 Now they looking at you different
 Videos playing on television
 Now they looking at you different
 Life of a rapper rising, posters and advertisements
 Backstage table flooded with some appetizers
 Promoters and the owners love it, I'm so accustomed
 Showing out in public like "yo fuck it"
 That's in my cards, get em to send a car
 Coming back with Po she telling me get in the car
 Turning off G.P.S. locations and notifications
 Underground secret poker games inside of basements
 New faces on the daily and it's dizzying
 It's Triggering the section of my brain that's amphibious
 Icarus, I feel my wings melting under heat
 But that ain't nothing, compared to hell's lava underneath
 So I'm stuck in the middle like that "Thriller" song
 Controlled by invisible forces stronger than gorilla arms
 Inside a fish tank like the pope in his vehicle
 Seeing big smiles from even those who don't agree with you
 "Focus on the positive Po", "stay positive"
 Another show another check go deposit it
 Take a break from the scene and go step out of it
 Don't go forget U came up out of nowhere be proud of it
 You never did it for attention did it for yourself and for your fans
 Ya ancestors and all the souls of elders in ya fam
 Clothes food and shelter for your fam
 Those were the cards you were dealt with
 Fuck whoever jealous of ya hand
 Caught yourself a break now you winning
 Now they looking at you different
 Got yourself together you in business
 Now they looking at you different
 Got it popping accosted by pretty women
 Now they looking at you different
 Videos playing on television
 Now they looking at you different
