    He didn't diss anybody, but the people who lived in the town he grew up in.
    EDIT: Sorry to those who already liked this but I gotta expand. Listen, brother, you reach a few ears so you can't be misrepresenting like this. He wasn't dumping on the working class. He wasn't dissing his fans. He loves his fans. The power of his fans is the only reason he can be doing what he's doing without a record label and he knows it. When he spoke about not being impressed with people living cheque to cheque he was talking about the people from his hometown who are constantly trying to tear him down. The man has enough problems with haters just hating because they're jealous, racist, or both, without having people misrepresent his words.

    Tom makes it clear that God saved him from his “grave,” and he has “faith.” He says that he isn’t the perfect Christian, and has a sinner’s past.
    Unless Tom meant it as a Double, I don’t see the “God Mode… Beast Mode” bar as a diss to EM; rewatch the video, which clearly shows his point.
    Tom literally points to Heaven when he says “God Mode” and points down to Hell when he says “Beast Mode.”
    He is saying, other rappers are doing the Devil’s work, intentionally or not, while he intentionally is doing his best to work for Good/God!
    He also says that he isn’t going to get dragged into a diss battle!

    I was hoping you would cover this one... Mac Lethal is who he destroyed. Tom's story is quite amazing to see where he is now. If you listen to "This House" and go back to this one, this is the complete circle. This song is to address all the haters, he's like the Bruce Lee of music. He is gonna diss the haters without really dissing the haters. Can't touch Tom because Tom already achieved everything he set out to do, now it's just for the love of what he does. A lot of people think this is to also address the "Upchurch" mess, but I think this is to address people bigger than that, when Tom and Ben came out with Facts, he had some hip hop signed artist coming for him, I think this is to address all of that.
    Every time Tom drops a new song, it is at least #3 on the charts, he has beat Em on the charts a few times.
