I Ain't Better

A lot of folks asking the wrong questions
When you get the answers
Those gon' be the wrong lessons
Like where the rap superstars?
I got an objection death to the superstars
The only natural progression
That singular size you chase only
Make corporate pensions
Think if one's reach ain't as wide
We all less than
How many celebs bend and folded in the
Light before we realized big isn't best?
Damn, that's what I'm questionin'
How can we lose what came from
Streets when it returns to it?
Means you're no longer part of the
We that really yearns for it
Everybody teachin' these days
Nobody learnin' shit
I just sit perpetually amazed at
How absurd it gets

Yeah, but I ain't better
But I ain't better, no, no
But I ain't better yeah, but I ain't better

What is underrated when I answer
To my own taste? Listenin' to suggestions
A pass that I won't take
Everyone always thinks they the one
That's gon' convince you
They never gon' believe you really
Actin' out of principle
'Cause they can only see you through
The lens that they live through
And they trade in their humanity
For a digital life
But I'll be humble in this bitch, polite
'Cause it's a thin line between
Honest and resentful spite
The breeze blows 'em in and out
And I'll be here for years
Wind-resistant, so never been a problem
To cheer for peers
But the sounds I'm surrounded
By got me feelin'
Like ain't no one else in my atmosphere
Got that clear?

But I ain't better, yeah
But I ain't better, no, no
But I ain't better i ain't better
