[Hook: Bobby Capri]
Yeah, they tell me "Get a grip on reality"
All I need is a "grip" in reality
So I'm-a be real with you
I'm-a keep it real with you
All I want is real shit
You can give me that at least
(real shit) You can give me that at least
(real shit) You can give me that at least
If nothing else, if nothing else
I only want what's real, I don't need nothing else
They tell me "Get a grip on reality"
All I need is a "grip" in reality
So I'm-a be real with you
I'm-a keep it real with you
All I want is real shit
You can give me that at least
(real shit) You can give me that at least
(real shit) You can give me that at least
If nothing else, if nothing else
I only want what's real, I don't need nothing else
[Verse 1: Bobby Capri]
Don't sell me no fake dream, don't tell me it's real when it's not
You know how some people like to just say things to hear theirselves talk
Ain't nobody tryna ride when they hear that you walk
How you gon' ride when your shit is in park?
How you gon' ride if your shit doesn't start?
How you got drive when you still at the start?
With your thumb in the air tryna catch you a ride
Hoping they open their passenger side
You thinking you slick with no patch on your eye
You thinking you Rick, living way back in time
Chains dangling late 80's, early 90's: you doing your thing
It's 20 years later and shit ain't the same
It's 20 years later! You hear what you saying?!
I only hear "real" we don't hear shit the same
If shit isn't real, then I won't even say it
Won't entertain it. Fuck entertainment
Fuck all that bullshit. Enough with the fake shit
I'm-a need something that's a little more real
I'm-a need something with a little more feel
I'm-a need something I can ride to
Some fly shit: birds eye view
Give me that without being lied to
Talk your shit when it's time to
'Til then, just grind like everybody else
Cause like everybody else, you gon' die to
Look back, you dead. What defines you?
Real recognize real, will they vouch for you?
Cause they'll vouch for me, and that's real shit
And for real, that's what it comes down to
[Hook: Bobby Capri]
Yeah, they tell me "Get a grip on reality"

If nothing else, if nothing else
I only want what's real, I don't need nothing else
[Verse 2: Bobby Capri]
Don't sell me no bullshit, I'm not in the market to buy none
Just point all the real motherfuckers out to me, the game has been making it harder to find them
Fuck going hard when the time comes
You gotta go hard at all times
Gotta be smart, cut all ties
With whatever's unreal. Man, shit is unreal
Motherfuckers out here fronting like it don't matter
Hands in the air swearing that it's all true
Fake facades that they hop in and out of, everybody reading lines off right on cue
And the worlds a stage, and they actors in it
Got a whole crew full of stagehands that back their shit up like it's authentic
And it got my head spinning like a break dance
No cardboard, just concrete
I seen it all before like its on repeat
In this melting pot, can't help but watch
It's so surreal like Dali
Must be an art to it that's hard to see
Shit don't look like art to me
These John Does are more Jon B
This shits looking more like R&B
They all in their feelings when the spot lights on 'em
Sure gets quiet when the shit gets real
Surrounded by people that they swear hating on 'em
Cause they won't keep quiet bout shit they don't feel
Please don't explain, there's no need to
Fake's all the same, and I've seen a few
And those costumes are gon' cost 'em
That fake shit is so see through
[Bridge: Bobby Capri]
If it ain't real I don't want shit to do with it
Cause the only thing that matters on the reals' what you do with it
If it ain't real I don't want shit to do with it
Cause the only thing that matters on the reals' what you do with it
Real shit, now watch what I do with it
[Hook: Bobby Capri]
