Differences

What's the purpose?
The purpose to love
To live?

We draw the same picture
Yet you don't understand mine clear

So tell me,
What's the difference
Between you and me
In my eyes me next to you is like "Real vs McGhee"

I tell you something legit and legit is what it is
You tell me something small but come to find out y'all have a kid
So can you tell me the difference

Between real and me
Cause as far as I know
I'm the only real I need
I'm the only real I know
I'm the only one if shit ain't straight everything dropping to the floor

But your perception is screwed up
Thinking it's the same
But really you ain't shit
And think I'm playing along in this game

But your heart is screwed up
Thinking you can love
But because you're so open and observant you've  killed the dove

But my mind is screwed up
Cause I swear that it was working
But if I do some simple shit like step on a cracker
Then my body'll get to jerkin

So tell me everything
The rules
The regulations

Cause honestly I don't know
I'm blind and inflamed
In flames my eyes go
When your temper gets insane

Insane you go
From the calmness of my voice
Insane you go
From the innocence of my choice

Nothing really matters
If it's not involving you

If your happy you're good
Cause you look out for you

But me?
I mean dam
My bad for expecting the expected

I mean who can I run to?
Obviously not you cause most of the time I get rejected

Cause insane you go
From the calmness of my demeanor
The calmness of my voice
Insane you go
From the volume or pitch of my choice



I'm always the one mad
Yet you're always leaving
You say it's a break,
To give me time and let it sink in

But I will break without sharing your bad times with mine

You don't understand and it's cool
Don't blow it

I know how to love
But you don't know how to hold it

If you knew how to love
You'd know you need to show it

But who am I to blame?
I stayed on the sidelines
Countinued to watch your game

It all seemed familiar
The events, as they came

But you swore to the deepest that you two were not the same

But who am I to judge?
I break up true love

I'm always the one left dry and alone because I refuse to be hurt

But with refusal comes submission

Because with the refusal of pain
It will always refuse and submiss in

So tell me the difference
Between real and me

But to draw another picture
The difference between me loving me
And me loving McGhee
