[Intro: YL]
I'ma tell y'all n***as like this
Its 2013, I understand that
I understand y'all wanna, y'all wanna party know what I'm sayin'
Party your life away, drink you know pop a little bit of pills
Smoke some weed, know what I mean I understand that
Know what I mean but this is not that
Know what I mean, separate me from the artificial man
This is what it sound like when reality set in man
From the artificial separate me
Temptations always present but will never take me
Knowledge of self novels on shelf
Teach me, cherish my relationship
Not just wealth, it's ridin' back back
Slide the homie dap like trees in front the seas
Like I never knew how to act act
Uh ey yo, ey yo its me baby its me

[Verse 1: YL]
I just display ugly traits but hold a beautiful mind
She sippin' wine, I stick to the Hennessy
I'm inclined lyrically, rather simply put this is God talkin'
Walkin' the path of careers that have fallen
The rap game, rap game slide into the fast lane
Fake ass hoes do anything for the last name
Tunnel vision execute the plan with precision
With not one man missin' the plan is still behind me forever
Study the classics, study they tactics
Absorb it and apply it to practice
Prayin' that my foes grow to greater understandin'
I just landed touchdown shorty beggin' for a bus down
I let her have it we sharin' the cancer
Still rappin' stanzas
Still travel to Queens, smoke weed proceed to exposin' these rap actors non factors
Yo what's your mixtape title? I don't remember
Rhymin' tighter than knitted sweaters word up
But silly moves like, like a feather
You a bitch, I can read your characteristics
You make false claims the truth is in the statistics
I see through all of it
Through all of it I maintain
We look similar but we don't speak the same thing
[Hook: YL]
We all tryna get bread and rise like dough
This is New York City, when its cold its cold
Flip the skully off in the dome, smoke known to elevate me
It's all good from the fake shit separate me
Yo, separate me

[Bridge: YL & Morpheus from 1999's The Matrix]
What is real? How do you define real?
If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain
Separate me, separate me
This, the world that you know

[Verse 2: YL]
Wake the fuck up, yo the time is passin' through the hourglass
The camera flash every single L is passed type depressin'
Reality set in, attention attention somethin' on my mind
Peep the question, what is really real?
What does real look like? Is it somethin' that you feel?
Is it somethin' that you're born with?
Is it, is it me? Is it you? Is it black or white? Is it green? Is it blue?
Who the fuck knows, I'll tell you muhfuckas what it sound like though
Swing the microphone spit with the monotone
Y-L don't duplicate styles, it's just me trust me
I would never do you unjustly truth
Be told, you should watch the throne behold
Trials and tribulations, you will never see me fold fold
It's never gettin' old, it's timeless baby
2-0-1-3 its 9-3
It's Ridin' Back
