[Intro]
(Drumma Boy)
What's goin' on in real life, though?
When you get off that microphone
You know what I mean?
Yeah
I'm talkin' 'bout for real life, though

[Verse 1]
Grandma called and told me that she need a new car (I got you, grandma)
Said she heard that her grandson is a superstar (Haha)
Mama said don't worry, she sick, but she good, though (Damn, mama)
Mama and daddy in the suburbs, but they hood though, yeah
My lil' brother locked up just for tryna get some paper (Shit, man)
But I can't blame him because his big brother a paper chaser (Damn, man)
Keep some money on his books, man, that young n***a straight (Straight)
He said he don't want no visits, that young n***a an ape (He an ape)
My best friend mama gettin' sicker by the day (Damn, man)
Cancer took over her body, got her all in pain (Woah)
My homie goin' through it, I see it all in his face (Yeah)
Now everybody bow your head (Yeah), it's time to pray (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Tell your mama you love her while she here (For real)
Tell your pops that you love him while he here (For real)
Tell your homeboy you love him while he here (For real)
One day, you here, next day, you gone (Ayy), for real (Ayy, ayy)
It's that time of the year
It's a lot of shit goin' on 'round here (Ayy)
Tell your bitch that you love her while you here (Yeah)
If it wasn't for her, would your kids be here?
[Verse 2]
Sometimes, I just sit back and think (All the time)
Do I think too hard or do I think enough? (I don't know)
Everything that I do, I got a son watchin' now (Damn)
I got nephews and lil' cousins that look up to me (Damn, man)
Yeah, I made it up out them streets, n***a, luckily (For real)
Only if you knew what I been through
Mama stressin' out 'cause the rent due (Yeah)
Went to grandma grave and told her, "I miss you" (I miss you)
It's hard to stay focused out here livin' in hell (Yeah)
The only way to get ahead is if you catchin' sales (Yeah)
You got n***as out here every day catching shells
This real life shit right here, no fairy tales (Hey)

[Chorus]
Tell your mama you love her while she here (For real)
Tell your pops that you love him while he here (For real)
Tell your homeboy you love him while he here (For real)
One day, you here, next day, you gone (Ayy), for real (Ayy, ayy)
It's that time of the year
It's a lot of shit goin' on 'round here (Ayy)
Tell your bitch that you love her while you here (Yeah)
If it wasn't for her, would your kids be here?
