Ryan Oakes – Differences lyrics
[Chorus]
What's the difference between you and I?
I'll never work a 9 to 5, man I'm too alive
You weren't born like my [?]
Homie you abide, by every rule and I promise you a suicide
Hey, what's the difference between me and you?
You stuck inside a big crowd I just got a few
Homies that are driven every single one is making moves
You stuck on that boredom and you cool not having shit to do

[Verse 1]
I got an ethic that's crazy man this as good as it gets
You sympathetic and lazy and look at me getting pissed
All of the sceptics they made me chase after dreams and I did
Had people thinking momma dropped me on my head as a kid
They used to try to sedate me then I got off of the pills
I was too busy dreaming 'bout adventure and thrills
They try to tell me I'm crazy because they wanted him killed
Fast forward six years I got a crib in the hills
I had the drive and the will and they were sitting content
Chillin' learnin' old skills I was tryna invent
When you makin' those bills people start to resent
I'm driven and you road kill if you still try to prevent
Me, from starting a movement I'm always working, improving
The ethic's out of this world, I never felt I was human
I felt like more of a mutant, I always needed amusement
While all these people look lifeless, I don't know how they do it
I said


[Chorus]
What's the difference between you and I?
I'll never work a 9 to 5, man I'm too alive
You weren't born like my [?]
Homie you abide, by every rule and I promise you a suicide
Hey, what's the difference between me and you?
You stuck inside a big crowd I just got a few
Homies that are driven every single one is making moves
You stuck on that boredom and you cool not having shit to do

[Verse 2]
Born in a place where they hating if you went out on a limb
I'm from a neighborhood of people who won't get out of it
I'm from a city where the people gossip and sin
You got a secret in a hotel, no Holiday Inn
Ain't nobody got the box man they always offended
Rather see you quit stop than to see you be winning
Then the second shit pops they applaud and they grinning
And all the hating it stops like they were there from beginning
Now listen up, I stand behind these bars like its jail
Never giving shit a rest so I will never post bail
They try to judge me till I stopped its evident that shit failed
I be the only person where I'm from to do it this scale
Its only facts dawg, people need to back off
Never had a butt cause I always work my ass off
Deep inside the cut like I just did it with a hacksaw
So I can finally get myself a couple million racks dawg, that's all, uh


[Chorus]
What's the difference between you and I?
I'll never work a 9 to 5, man I'm too alive
You weren't born like my [?]
Homie you abide, by every rule and I promise you a suicide
Hey, what's the difference between me and you?
You stuck inside a big crowd I just got a few
Homies that are driven every single one is making moves
You stuck on that boredom and you cool not having shit to do
