Subject wise, Emotionally, lyrically, the beat >>>>

Name a rapper or another song released within the last Year or 2 that comes close to this...

Hate him or not, this man perfected all that bullshyt ya'll think Drake just ''started to do'' smh...



[Verse 2: Joe Budden]
Uh, it go
How come they can roll? Ya'll tell me how come they can smoke, they can drink?
They get to do whatever they want and it don't interrupt the way they think
They all get to be regular, why is it only me this odd?
Me who can't even stand up straight, me who can't even keep a job
Maybe I'm asking for too much, a tiny piece of normalcy
Or answer to any one of my fukking prayers that's asking what's wrong with me
Maybe I'm tired of being unique, tired of being that outcast
I'm tired of me being the only one, so tired of you all not knowing about that
I'm tired of it all, want me to fall a spectacle, for the crowd to see
Or being the only one with faith, I'm tired of everybody doubting me
I'm tired of responding to grown ass folks that think so motha fukkin childishly
Aches, wish I could take my parents' genes the fukk up out of me
Tired of wanting to run somewhere, tired of having to bare it all
Tired of you fukks constantly taking from me and I'm willing to share it all
Tired of being objective, I'm tired of having to hear it all
But being alone is the only way I know to never be near it all

As someone who relates closely to the subject matter, though mollies and wet weren't my thing......it's an ok song, with insightful and honest lyrics, but the beat is overproduced and sappy, those guitars are way over the top, it's going i think for the emo/rock style of the production on 'Recovery', Alex Da Kid, but it doesn't quite work..
