You're just a butter knife, I'm a machete

Confidence rules: 6 of the 10 lines carry the theme. All are lyrics, and most of them are one song, Ain't No Half Steppin', where the boasts come as short comparisons. Outside it there is a lesson on being your own boss in A Job Ain't Nuthin' But Work, a critique of the "ho mentality" in W.G.O.N.R.S, and a line about police harassment in Another Victory. So the page is mostly braggadocio with a few sober exceptions.
So pick a B.C. date 'cause you're history
Competition, I just devour
Like a pit bull against a Chihuahua
When I'm cruisin' in my Volvo, cops harass me
They never ride past me, they hound me like Lassie
Control what I hold and of course be the boss of myself
No one else will bring me wealth
For you to beat me, it's gonna take a miracle
And steppin' to me, yo, that's the wrong move
So what you on, Hobbs, dope or dog food?
Problem, I can sneeze, sniffle, or cough
E-e-e-even if I stutter, I'ma still come off
Rappers act so wild, and love to profile
Frontin' hard but they ain't got no style
When you teach her that ho mentality
They accept that as reality
