I'm Different - Maino, Lyrivelli, Georgie

They tell me I ain’t smooth as Fab or cool as Jay-Z

I try to be calm, but that just ain’t me

I’m too wild, man, that’s what they told me

But not as hard as M.O.P., see

I went to jail, came back with a witty flow

They say I’m nice but I ain’t no Biggie, yo

But the plan is to lock down the city, though

With nothing but thugs all in my videos

Can’t help that I’m nothing but a street nigga

Dropped school and headed straight for the street, nigga

This for the homies on the blocks getting street cheddar

That like Maino, but Memphis Bleek’s better

Jean said something gotta be wrong with me

Rappers in my own burough don’t get along with me

That’s aight, all I need is my dogs with me

It hurt when AZ wouldn’t do a song with me

Niggas in the hood wanna know if I’m that loose

I move with my chest poked out like I’m gatproof

The ladies wanna know what’s my excuse

For rhyming about how I bust guns and get crack loot

I’m different, I ain’t down with nobody

I stand out, I don’t sound like nobody

I’m different, I’mma show you what’s good, love

If I don’t go platinum, I’mma still get hood love

I’m different, cause I does what I want to

Act how I wanna act, say what I want to

I’m different, ain’t another one like me

I ain’t like none of them, and none of them like me

They’re saying I’m too hard for the industry

That’s why they act like they wanna get rid of me

But yet and still I’mma rep for Brooklyn

I’m the real thing, dog, I get respect in Brooklyn

Had to start from the bottom, it was hell in Brooklyn

Had to man up, so I popped steel in Brooklyn

Made sales, went to jail in Brooklyn

Did a bid, came home and I’m still in Brooklyn

You ain’t gotta share, I can feed myself

I ain’t gotta watch them, I can see myself

Man I came here alone, I’mma lead myself

I ain’t gon' rap how they rap, I’mma be myself

You can’t compare me to none of these rappers

Half of them lying and most of them actors

Tell you the truth without even bragging

The difference between me and these faggots

I’m different, I ain’t down with nobody

I stand out, I don’t sound like nobody

I’m different, I’mma show you what’s good, love

If I don’t go platinum, I’mma still get hood love

I’m different, cause I does what I want to

Act how I wanna act, say what I want to

I’m different, ain’t another one like me

I ain’t like none of them, and none of them like me

I ain’t got shit in common with these rappers, I’m not them

The closest he been around weight was a gym

But the niggas in the hood?

I’m just like them

I hustle hard, look in my face, I’m scarred like them

I’m sorry I’m not your favorite emcee

I’m just a thug that knows how to emcee

I’m not the nigga on your MTV

And fuck what he acts like, he ain’t me

I’m different, I ain’t down with nobody

I stand out, I don’t sound like nobody

I’m different, I’mma show you what’s good, love

If I don’t go platinum, I’mma still get hood love

I’m different, cause I does what I want to

Act how I wanna act, say what I want to

I’m different, ain’t another one like me

I ain’t like none of them, and none of them like me
