Not Your Average Thug

I keep it versatile, cause that's my style

From hip-hop to bip-bop

I've been with shorties round the world

Variety is just my personality

Sometimes I just don't fit in

I see the open doorways

But no one wants to let me in

Grandma made me understand material things don't make the man

Try to find that inner wealth and learn to love yourself

Lately it's so hard to find peace of mind

I just got to get away from the haters and the instigators

The mis-conceivers and the non-believers

People don't believe the hype 'cause LeeHom ain't no stereo type

No Crystale in the tub

Or iced out Spreewell dubs

I'm really not your average thug

Not your average gangster

And I won't be defined by the size of my knot

But the state of my mind

No Rolex on my wrist

Or platinum on my chest

'Cause I don't need that sh to impress

But y'all don't get it twisted

I got love for the ghetto

Tho I'm your average thug

(Feel me) Lord I've been around the world

Sangin' near and far

People runnin' game all over

Judgin' me before we meet when they see me on the street

And they don't know a damn thing about me

It's a world of jealous deceit and envy

Seems like everybody tryin' to take something from me

Grandma made me understand material things don't make the man

So I found that inner wealth and learned to love myself

Lately it's so hard to find peace of mind

(Lately it is so hard)

I just got to get away from the haters and the instigators

There's back-stabbers and money-grabbers

Users and abusers and they all wear smilin' faces

No Crystale in the tub

Or iced out Spreewell dubs

I'm really not your average thug

Not your average gangster

And I won't be defined by the size of my knot

But the state of my mind

No Rolex on my wrist

Or platinum on my chest

'Cause I don't need that sh to impress

But y'all
