Me & You Lyrics

(Zoo’s Verse)
What’s the difference between me & you?
Well who know, who had a clue that me and you
Were oh so untrue
While I built a nest you grew wings and flew
Up up and away, it’s fucked up in a way
But hey, that’s a story for another day
Let me lean back and see
Actually, lets get back to me, and me?
I’m a 19-year-old kid stuck serving a life sentence inside his own head
It’s the same story rewritten 100 times
Broken out on the mirror into 100 lines
From beginning to end it’s all the same
Whether it’s the oxycottin or the actual pain
It doesn’t matter in fact
Because through my struggle I kept my heart and soul intact
Last night I woke up from the same dream again
Rolled over to the nightstand for the paper and the pen
Scribbling and jotting everything I could remember
Shaking my head, wishing it could’ve lasted forever
But nothing lasts forever it’s just not real
Doesn’t matter about the site or how real it feels
If it did I’m Statue of Liberty, center of city lights
Blowing kush smoke listening to Pretty Lights
Raising white flags at useless pity fights
Instead my heads in the clouds, racing jet lag chasing city sites
So you wanna do drugs, smoke blunts, and take drinks?
So you can be the captain who watches his ship sink
I used to take pills to the point where nothing matters
Relapsing into recovery, call me Marshall Mathers
I was heartless at the least, frozen at the most
Stuck in an ocean of self-loathing starring at the coast
So I grew out of that stage, flipped the page
Now I flew out of that cage, equip with rage
No I’m standing tall, I’ve gotten up off my knees
I’m open my heart lays upon both of my sleeves
Now I’ve got the antidote to cure my disease
It sits strong on my arms with ease
My pen paints passion, gives me the will to believe
And when the seasons change I won’t be falling like the leaves

(Static’s Verse)
When Castro gives the word then the rhymes in affect
I never had a childhood, but ain’t deprived of it yet
Because all I got is aggression mixed with timeless regrets
But I’m still defining my rep with every stride in my step
Look, there's far more to me than murdering mics
So for now, i just gotta find my purpose in life
But for now, Imma make sure every word is precise
Because it's therapeutic jotting every verse that I write
I used to put all my emotions aside
Instead of utilizing my deepest emotions to guide
Cause I was scared to get in touch with my emotional side
But now I rely on all of my emotions to rhyme
So I came back renovated new with improvement
It’s like I recovered from being brutally wounded
I got my act together and stayed true to the music
I’ve matured now, I know it isn’t cool to be stupid
And college ain’t the only place where knowledge is found
I’m self-educated, never did I follow the crowd
I gained wisdom through experience designing this style
Cause you can’t survive in the wild with a mind of child
So how you claim that you the best? You ain’t as hot as me
And how you claim your turn is next? You ain’t a prodigy
What’s the point of being cocky if you don’t rhyme unique?
And what’s the point of a strong body if your mind is weak?
We spend our days with a cup, flask, or bottle
Dealing with all our problems drunk, trashed in sorrow
So instead of passing a blunt, pass a novel
You follow and act tough, I’m a tough act to follow
It’s all fabricated, no one’s stating the facts
Cause I was raised on the 90’s golden age of this rap
So don’t compare me to these cats whose flow is basic and whack
Cause frankly I don’t wanna be associated with that
But it’s hard to enlighten while educating these base heads
Tryna bring substance to a generation that’s brain dead
Rappers are leaving their fans cheated, it’s no secret
So if that means I gotta hand feed it, then so be it
But I ain’t in it for the dollars and cents
I’m staying true to myself and I ain’t following trends
So Imma say what I feel when I’m speaking these words
Cause I was taught to be the change you wanna see in the world
And that’s real
