I'm sure people familiar with battle rapping have heard this before, but this topic is more about actual grown man bars or lines used in a song.
Two of favorites are from 2 of my least favorite rappers:
Eightball: "? I had to struggle because my father aint cliff huxtable" (Crumbs to Brix)
Jeezy: "its hard to be drug free/ when Georgia Power won't give a ? lights free" (Go Crazy)
Add on....

"Another day to face, I'm share cropping in the paper chase
Take a deep breath and clear my database
It's afternoon I'm talking **** to my alarm clock
Cause I gotta face this world of capitalistic onslaught
Don't stop when I jump in the whip, tryin to get it off
Beltline got me rushin like Barichnakof
Pushin 80 miles per hour to this, call center
Tryin to pick up a check I only see twenty percent a
Until the weekend, it sound crazy when I'm sayin it
But sleep is nice, got me forgettin what day it is
Until my son two days with out speakin, looking for
Reasons to keep my heir from goin off the deep end
I take this **** personally, I'm makin moves
But this treadmill lifestyle ain't workin for me
It's from ya crib to ya lab to ya job to make a profit
And at the days end you still got nothing accomplished
And it's just the way it's goin down, but on the real
I think I need to slow it down and slow it down"

"It's cool to imitate, just grow into your own
-Don't let the green grass across the picket fence
Turn you into Mr. Smith without a purpose or a home
Underneath he is a Jedi on the surface, he's a Clone"
"Many actions excused
In the name of getting cash
Is adversely impactin our youth
With mental slavery, the shackles is loose
And its hard to cut chains when they attached at the roots
So what the new black activists do
For our freedom, is just being them
Do what you're passionate to"
"Don't let your ego get ahead of you,
believin all the hype from the pipelines you fed it through
I'm from that school of thought: there's never nothin left to prove,
so I keep yappin' 'til no ones left to confess it to
-I said I talk in the mirror,
convinced that that's the only time anybody hears ya.." -

I think if Adam would’ve had another squeeze he might//Not have ate those fruits from the leaves of light//
Far as Eve, it couldn't have been the more deceiving wife//
Seeing ? had a weak spot, she was right
I just call it how I see it, she in love with him
And he in love too but still be ? all of them
Can you imagine you in lock with one breeze for life? Waking up in the morning, laying down at night
With the same face looking at you all the time
Realizing now that happiness was hard to find?
You wanna go out and try to find that smile and face
Plus she's always mad and her sex ain't great
And she don't suck ? like she used to do
Force a ? into trying to find him something new//
And on the real, I done seen it when it went like this//
But girl, there's one thing happening that you can't forget- Scarface (Girl you Know) -
Life is but a dream to me
I don't wanna wake up
Thirty odd years without having my cake up
So I'm about my paper

But still got boys on the block and fam, smokin rock
So please, miss me with that conscious ?
I spent many a sleepless night because of it
Until I had to shake that ? off and reach the conclusion
That every now and then you gotta ask yourself
Do you really wanna win or just look good losin?
Phonte - Dreams
I let you stay in my crib, now you know where I live
when you was hungry, fed you a hot meal, look at the hand you deal
me crudball business giving ? inches so here, take a foot
luck only counts in rabbit's feet and horseshoes,
experience is sometimes the best teacher until we get our own plate
I hope you don't mind me eating off of yours...

I know how it feel to wake up ? up
pockets broke as hell, another rock to sell
people look at you like yous the user
selling drugs to all the losers, mad buddha abuser
but they don't know about the stressed filled days
baby on the way, mad bills to pay
that's why you drink tanqueray, so you can reminisce
and wish you wasn't living so devilish..

But the Hood over 21, you started your second life/
Life is more than a neck of ice a full deck of price/
But it sure damn looks nice."
