There are haters who actually dislike an artist because they do not like the product(s) they release.

While there are others that just hate them for being successful, and doing something they can’t..

So those who hate Los want him to stay broke, but that is now a thing of the past and he has reached success (inking a deal with Bad Boy records)

He’s lied so many times about his lifestyle (drug use, family life) that he doesn’t even care when he lies, it doesn’t bother him, hes completely numb to it.

He’s lost so many people in his life solely through his own actions

He asks “Do I need help with devotion” as in does he need to find a way to stay true to people..

In the next line he says he asks that to his Lord and Savior, because no one else can answer that type of question (Although neither can his savior, through words anyways)

Budden has been around danger his entire life growing up in the streets of Jersey, so he’s accustomed to it and it doesn’t bother him

He’s so comfortable with strangers because he considers most people strangers, no one truly understands him as he has stated many times through his lyrics

You’ll notice that the rappers are winning all the fights, which I surmise to be Emp stating that Children could just as easily look at rappers as heroes as they do the fictional comic characters

It’s a reference to Rass Kass’s track Come on.

“Ultra-Magnetic” is clearly a reference to the Ultramagnetic MC’s. Which is slightly confusing because Ras Kass and the Ultramagnetics have no seeming connection.
