On Tuesday (Feb. 25), the Dipset rapper received a message on Instagram from a Armed Forces vet who begged to differ with the rapper's assessment.

"Heard the comments you made about 'being a rapper is harder than fighting a war in Iraq.' You allowed to have your opinion without any facts nor truth to it, but as a Vet and a hip-hop fan, I found it extremely disrespectful and ignorant," IG user @mramcore posted. "Here's some facts, my unit which fought in Iraq 2004 lost more Marines in two months than 'rappers' in the past 3 years. Keep talking but there is zero comparison!"

Jim Jones posted his retort for all to see, countering the person's ideas.

"Here are facts every n***a I grew up with is either dead or in jail so u wanna compare death tolls it won't add up," Jones wrote. "U went to army n met n***as u never knew or grew up wit. I grew up wit all these n***as all my life so it hit different."

He added, "U wanna continue this debate. Yal was shootin at kids n innocent bystanders in the midst of shootin at the enemy. We was kids shootin at kids so that mentally split over to success."

Jones closed, "We was at war when we was born.
