So regular, so plain

See I'm a regular dude

Only difference is I can rap better than you

We both got kids so we settle disputes

Only difference is…ha ha

[Verse 1]

See, you and me fella?

We're more alike than you understand

Pitching to my sons

With a calculated underhand

Motion cause I know that if I gave it my all

The little man will never play cause he's afraid of the ball

I'm just a normal company man, wage earner

Who happens to write the illest boom-bap page turners

I want a wave runner, sure I want a Harley

Me, I'll just settle for simply rocking the party

I'm at the age where the crisis hits your midlife

Guys buy convertibles and stumble in at midnight

See I got it out in my twenties, isn't it funny?

I already seen the world and I toured most of the country

I'm like you, I need the money for the mortgage

And the food and the weddings and the future college courses

Of course this is life and if I said it it's true

It's a good thing I can rap better than you

[Hook]

I'm just a regular dude

Only difference is I can rap better than you

We both got kids so we settle disputes

Only difference is I can rap better than you

Both drive on the highway and set it to cruise

Only difference is I can rap better than you

See I'm a regular dude

Only difference is I can…..

[Verse 2]

In a world you could rap, the playing field would be level

In the game of entertainment I'm not especially special

Every dad would mow the lawn and write songs about that

Every time he wrote a check it'd most certainly bounce back

Every man would enter battles certain that they'd take the cash

Just in time the IRS would show up and they'd take it back

Every average joe could get group of friends around

And make a classic album then get love from the underground

Each and every man would get calls to rock the mic

The bill would fill up too fast and all I'd hear is not tonight

ManCHILD raps like the guys who fixed my rear brakes

Anybody better? better chalk it up to simple hearsay

Luckily that world is far away and flipped a bit

Mxyzptlk, as it is you got ears to listen with

We both wish our cars did better on fuel

Only difference is I can rap better than you

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

It goes one for the mortgage, two for vacation days

Three for the songs that your local college station plays

Four for my words sharp enough to split a razor blade

Five for the listener blessing that you take away

You see we both business casual, both hate khaki pants

Both pause and watch those commercials with the cash advance

Both fall victim to an avalanche of happenstance

Both just plain old plain at a glance

But guess what: manCHILD is under my skin

And luckily my people say they want it again

My pen running overtime, I send it to the pencil

And best believe I know you when I see your real potential

When you breathe out, say it when you speak out

Feel free to live through the method in my freestyle

Whether I'm in carpool or severing crews

I still thank God that I'm a regular dude
