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) 

I never did like making comparisons, I tried to act like I never really cared again
But every time that I would get compared to them
I had to change my shoes, clothes, and hair again
And I was scared again, 'cause what are they gonna say 
When they see the same jeans that I wear again
Or the soles on my shoes that are wearing thin
Plus a coat that my brother had to share again
And it's like that, I can't fight that, 'cause it might last into night class
In the end, all I really want is my pass, to get approval from the people in the hype class
When I look back now, then I might laugh, 'cause I write raps and you might clap
But as a kid without identity comparisons to frenemies is real, but it's a trap
So our kids are in a pickle trynna match this
Chasin' peer approval like they're it, playin' monkey in the middle
And I know it sounds fickle, but the trap is
If you got a penny then you mad at the one who's got a nickel
So it's gonna take a little bit of practice
Chasin' after God who created you with purpose and a mission
And it seems like a riddle, but the fact is
He proclaims that you're very good, all you gotta do is listen
So now I know that life isn't just a competition
When I see what you got, I don't think of what I'm missin'
If I write my story based on yours then that is truly fiction
'Cause it's already been written by the one who's truly risen
Now I share that, and I care that I can give His love by makin others aware of that
On the day He made us our Father declared that
The bread of life made us all beyond compare - facts
So if we forget that we were made in His image
And hold up what someone else got, that is a shame
'Cause we'll go 0-and-forever when we try to play them 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)
