[Verse 1]
Came up out the womb a man with everything that you demand
You can say I had a plan way before I had a fan
Some will probably call it luck, I just call it bein' blessed
You ain't never did the work, but you want to be the best?
Lately, I could never stress, never better, better yet
Might've had a thing for you, she know I'm the better bet
I digress, I let it rest, go and get another check
I could always see my future, I bet thеy can never guess (Nеver guess)
Guess and they get it 'cause look at me now and then look at yourself in the mirror
I know they doubted my thesis but they doubted Jesus and right now I'm makin' it clear
Clearly, these people don't know where they goin' and lately, I feel like the man with the map
I got this shit out the mud, you can give me the word and I'll probably give it right back
Back at the bus, I was scrapin' the change
Back of my head, I was livin' the life
Back of my job I was losin' the focus and tryin' to find ways to get back to the mic
All of this workin', ain't workin', I feel like a liar and I cannot lie to myself
I know the‌ truth universal so don't let me tell you, I know that a lot of you know

[Chorus]
Spillin' pieces of a poet, don't you know it? I'm the real thang baby
And if you don't make a dollar then I couldn't make a real change baby
Spillin' pieces of a poet, don't you know it? I'm the real thang baby
And if you don't make a dollar then I couldn't make a real change baby (Ay)

[Instrumental Break]
(I'm the real thing, don't you know it? I'm the real thang, baby)
[Verse 2]
Came up out the womb a giant, you were lickin', you a client
Now you got so much to say, I was hurtin', you was quiet
Glory is as glory does so you know the story love
Never thought he'd be a legend, he was always sure he was
You was always naysayin', some things never change
Spiritually, I never age, feelin' like eleventh grade
Junior me, proud of me, standin' tall, towering
Doin' things I never do if I was livin' cowardly
Sushi rolls, sour D (Sour D)
Song three, hour three (Hour three)
I don't even go to sleep (Go to sleep)
Know the Lord empower me (Empower me)
Wake 'em up, they sound asleep (Sound asleep)
They gon' hear the sound of me (Sound of me)
When the money gettin' up (Gettin' up)
Truly ain't no doubtin' me (Doubtin' me)
Finally get it 'cause look at me now and then lookin' at me from the picture
They probably thought that I'd need 'em or thought that I'd keep 'em, they lucky if I even miss 'em
Thinkin' that you got me figured, you figured it wrong but it's okay, I truly forgive you
Lately, I ain't got the time to be pickin' up fights when I'm tryin' to pay shit from the menu

[Chorus]
Spillin' pieces of a poet, don't you know it? I'm the real thang baby
And if you don't make a dollar then I couldn't make a real change baby
Spillin' pieces of a poet, don't you know it? I'm the real thang baby
And if you don't make a dollar then I couldn't make a real change baby
