Mismatch

Down on my luck, if a frown cost a buck, I'd be rich It's like the world is screaming "Dan-e-o get on your knees bitch" Why does a fiend itch? It's 'cause he's craving for satisfaction I've had massive action with classic rap shit but not half the traction As others from my city Why do I let Drake and The Weeknd make me feel shitty? Who should take pity when God built me to murder verses? If no one notices, should it determine what my worldly worth is? Man I don't deserve this Feeling I'm not appealing, reeling but keep concealing My wish to stay sleeping just to avoid Caribana weekend And the reminder that stars are taking over Toronto And that I'll never command a crowd like Machel Montano Or Kes The Band, ain't no bitches be saying "yes" to Dan Including ones I've loved and thought was part of my forever plan Even my bredrens don't call me out like they used to Canada's Juice Crew reduced to niggaz with loose screws That couldn't keep our shit together, we lost our treasure Formerly tougher than leather, now regarded as hard as a feather It ain't fair like a darkskin dude When it's time to include the response feels rude Canadian North Stars at OVO, we wasn't invited So many respected artists stood on that stage united I felt slighted, like everything I did was derided And had glided towards a state where with hate it collided Down in the dumps trying to sift my way through the trash Trying to come up with ways to come up in lieu of cash I called Kish who's more of my brother than my boy He said "Dan, comparison is the thief of joy" Your accomplishments are astonishments But the monuments built by your accomplices don't tarnish shit What you've put together like Lego is unequivocally fuego Like you cooked it in a New Mexican Winnebago Wearing a yellow raincoat, bro I appreciate it Stressing about blowing up got me feeling deflated Horribly underrated saying I'm great is an understatement According to members of hip-hop's under pavement No one's mental health perfect so when pain rises to the surface I must remember the way I've been of service 30 plus years with bars that cause tears Stop thinking your constant prayers are lost on God's ears Your daughter is proof that all you've made is incomparable Everything you wish is possible, you're unstoppable Deadly damn it, the whole planet should call dispatch The world vs. Dan-e-o's a motherfuckin' mismatch And you know what I like I like chillin' Monday Night Raw watching Me and Dan-e-o at the SkyDome when it's in town Make some noise for Dan-e-o!
