When I think about comparisons I think about how we compare our sins, but it's really just a pair of sins Like when our parents sin, and we spare our sense And we share our sins like when a parrot sins I'm staring since the fact, is that it's sad but true that This is what we do as Americans in rap, but (It's a trap) And in the same way, another game's played And it happens all the time like holiday parades It's the idea that, when we measure success It's a war with ourselves on whether we're blessed So we're fighting our shadow, internal battles, trying to decide on how well we rap But our dreams won't last if we can't get past the past 'cause (It's a trap) Now I think of how i've failed in every one of these tests Just like when I used to front, because I wanted respect And so I tried so hard to fake like I belonged in a club But in the end I fell. I guess I wasn't a thug I also used to try to look at other people who sinned And like a Pharisee I scoffed, 'cause I thought, that I was better than them I never tried to understand what was behind their decisions And I didn't recognize that, the log that I had, was blinding my vision I just assumed that, I was immune to that, because I knew that, I wouldn't do THAT But by doing that, I just proved that, I COULD lose track, and then do it back Or even worse stuff, like prideful arrogant, hurtful stuff Like saying I was better 'cause of church and it sucks Cause a lot of what i've learned is the knowledge that the world is in need of love It's common having greed and stuff, and it's something that I'm guilty of But what I'm really wanting's to move past my trash to do lasting acts that'll fill me up 'Cause there's nothing more satisfying than coming in As I'm crying and humbly recognizing that someone like me can change So I'm a make it plain and i'll show em my faith in gaining a whole other way to play the Comparison game It's a trap, to look at him or her And think what would occur If we had this or that (It's a trap) It's a trap, no matter where you've been All gifts they come from Him No need to fill the gap (It's a trap) It's a trap, to look at him or her And think what would occur If we had this or that (It's a trap) It's a trap, no matter where you've been All gifts they come from Him No need to fill the gap (It's a trap) I love to dip in my whip, it's a Volvo, 2009 Couldn't get a new one, but it's blue and it's like new so really I'm doing fine Cause what I used to drive was also a blue Volvo but a '96, and if you Tried to tried to tune into the radio station you would just get sick of all the Rattling, shaking and creaking, I went berserk Had to put a boombox in the backseat with the bluetooth cause the radio didn't work But I was still grateful to drive it, in a season of strugglin' and strivin' Cause it meant I could live my life and always have me a ride Without relying on mass transit ridin' But going back I remember the time when, that bus was freedom, as a kid Only way I got around were the wheels on my bike, and finally I didn't need 'em But way back, I remember what I felt like, I wanted that first bike SO BAD, that I was ignoring all the other blessings that I had It was a pattern that was bad for my health, cause I could Only see others... compared to myself And every comparison was an awareness in the sin of regretful jealousy But then friends would see me and see only good, they failed to see The rest, the struggles and drama within my family All they saw were all the issues I conquered or dealt with handily And umm... it's kinda silly, if they'd been deliberate, they woulda Seen that my mistakes are not better or worse, they're just kinda different So if you live for Christ and you wanna get far Take it from my man, Admiral Ackbar Everybody wants that fame (Fame), but what if it comes with pain? No one can possibly win comparison games It's a trap, to look at him or her And think what would occur If we had this or that (It's a trap) It's a trap, no matter where you've been All gifts they come from Him, no need to fill the gap (It's a trap) It's a trap, to look at him or her And think what would occur If we had this or that (It's a trap) It's a trap, no matter where you've been All gifts they come from Him, no need to fill the gap (It's a trap) Running around town looking at what you don't got here's a new thought homie that is rude To a God who can provide protect produce and help you choose a better attitude Running around town looking at what you don't got here's a new thought homie that is rude To a God who can provide protect produce and help you choose a better attitude Obsessing over stuff (Don't do it, don't do it) Never thinking it's enough (Don't do it, don't do it) Getting heated over fluff (Don't do it, don't do it) Giving thanks for daily bread (Yeah, do that instead) It's a trap, to look at him or her And think what would occur If we had this or that (It's a trap) It's a trap, no matter where you've been All gifts they come from Him, no need to fill the gap (It's a trap)
