[Intro: J Dilla]

Yeah

It's too real...


[Verse 1: J Dilla]

How y'all feel out there?

Let me know if it's real out there

'Cause it is out here; it's a game of survival

Niggas is trying to live out here

Round here, I watch cats hit the floor

And ain't nann Johnny Gill out here

But it's too many cowards around

My real niggas getting killed out here

It's ill out here

Busta'll tell you what it is out here

A whole lot of pimps

Some live bitches out here

They liable to set you up

Man, everybody thugging it out here

Narcos even drug dealing out here

Can't club, slugs peeling out there

You out here, mob with us

Get dollars is what we about here

Gotta handle your biz out there

It's too real out here

Yeah

[Scratched Samples]

"Real..."

"The real..." (Yeah)

"It's just that for real"

"Real niggas"

"It's a hustler's test"

"For it is the real!" ("Really though")

("You ain't real")

This is dedicated to all the fake suckas at home, watching the videos

Then going outside and trying to portray stuff, you know what I'm saying?

Yeah


[Verse 2: J Dilla]

Some wannabes out here, but they outta there

Time for Dill' and Madlib out here

There's a whole lotta filth out there

Y'all can't be for real out there

Fake gangstas better chill out there

'Cause y'all know the deal out here

It's real out here, meals out there

Niggas got bills out here

Everybody tryna live out here

Everybody hustling out here

And you don't want your biz out there

Hoes be on some bullshit out here

You don't wanna be without here

Niggas ain't giving a fuck, they will pull it out here

A bitch nigga won't kill shit, but a dumb nigga will out here

How a lotta blood get spilled out here

It's fucked up, but it's real out here

Is that how it is out there?

Shit don't make sense out here

Yeah


[Interlude]


[Bridge: J Dilla]

Going out to my crumb snatchers

Better watch your back, 'cause it's real out here

When you cake and it bring the hate

You better bring the thing, man, it's real out here

Detroit niggas getting real out here

L.A. niggas getting real out here

Worldwide, let's get live, and, the same time, survive

'Cause it's real out here


[Outro: Dank]

Yeah

Nigga, you know the streets is watching!

Yo! Big money, nigga

Yo! Niggas don't play! Holla!

Yo! You better get your shine on, nigga, uh

Before it's over, yo

We here now nigga, yo...

[Skit: Ted, Woman and Announcer]

The Pattersons are coming over and we only have about enough grass left to roll one joint!

Oh, that's OK, Ted; I'll just mix it up real good with this!

Hey, what are you doing?!
