about
This is another personal favorite of mine. It was initially slated to be a song for a mixtape release, but it just felt to big to just be a throw away track. I had worked with Cashous Clay on my previous album, To Whom It May Concern (Song: Driving Nowhere), and the chemistry was still there. Once again I wanted to let the naysayers know why I'm one of the realest up and coming artists and why they don't f*ing with me.
lyrics
Hook:
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
This is my life, my words, my balls, you don't like it fuck ya'll
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
Can't come no other way, I mean what I say, I'm as real as it gets, as real as it gets
Verse One:
Yeah man, this is my life, I'ma say what I like
Like man shit been alright
But it could be better, better can be good
Success around the corner, let me knock on wood
Cuz ya boy superstitious, never trust snitches
This food for thought, already did the dishes
You just got to listen, but niggas too cheap nowadays to pay attention
You can bare witness to the realest human being
I ever seen, he was chilling in the mirror
Spoke, I couldn't hear him
Cleared my throat and he spoke much clearer
Said, "Only trust yaself, no one else
Cuz when times get hard, guess who's gonna help
Put ya game face on, tighten your belt
Live for the moment, it's the only thing promised
Always be honest to yourself and ya kliq
Respect women, put no faith in a bitch
Put God first and you'll never go wrong.."
So I gave dude dap and I wrote this song
Hook:
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
This is my life, my words, my balls, you don't like it fuck ya'll
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
Can't come no other way, I mean what I say, I'm as real as it gets, as real as it gets
Verse Two:
I'm more Kid CuDi than Gucci
I'm more Wale than Boosie
I'm more Hip-Hop than rap, so if you're real like I'm real than realize that
I'm giving ya'll real life facts, no
E: True Hollywood Stories, no
E pills, hollywood orgies
Competition thinking, he will probably destroy me
I don't do it for the glory, I'm hear to tell a story
I do it for my niggas that's trapped in purgatory
Who taking care of his family is his only war story
I ain't got a thang in common with these rapper dudes
Who claim to be fly, but never reached my altitude
Youse a grown man, ain't put no work in witchu own hands
Tryin to jock my fresh, a bunch of old Stans
This my show motherfucka check the program
I'm the realest nigga, you never heard of
MC's get murder, no need to take it further
They tell me to dumb it down, I tell them to smarten up
You ain't fucking with brah, because..
Hook:
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
This is my life, my words, my balls, you don't like it fuck ya'll
I'm as real as it gets
They be on that bullshit, I be on that realness, you got to feel this
As real as it gets
Can't come no other way, I mean what I say, I'm as real as it gets, as real as it gets
