When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit
When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit

[Verse 1]
Check out I get it, the real that I spit
I'mma stay down, watch how big that I get
When we hear bands we just pack up the trip
500 grand, thought I'd never see this
Used to sell pot in the pot I would piss
Used to be broke, like "one day we'll be rich!"
Used to see hope in the darkest abyss
Still shooting dice in the park with the fifth
I bought some guns so my n***as equipped
I gotta have it, get us outta this
I know it's coming, it's my only wish
Struggled so many days, thought I would quit
Lost my little homie, man cancer a bitch
Got your name on me, I'll never forget
Leano, I'm leaning, he poured me the zip
We were 16 with a dream of the lick
[Hook]
When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit
When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit

[Verse 2]
Bitches on bitches on bitches on bitch
Have some respect when you ash in this whip
Mercedes-Benz cost my n***a a grip
He was around when nobody else is
Damn all that loyalty got benefits
Monda watch over me when I take risks
D1, he miss you man
Sticky, he miss you man
Jeezy, he miss you
Someone get a tissue
Light up a blunt and take off like a missile
I gotta stunt, I make money, all fiscal
At any time man the reaper can get you
Starving, get money so what you gon' fix you?
Gotta understand, n***a I'm 'bout this
Selling ounces, sleeping on couches
Hustle see to it, know that I do it
Every bar to me is realer than music
[Hook]
When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit
When I say real life I hope that you get
Everything that put me through made me this
Coulda been jail or been laid in a ditch
Coulda been schooling and living legit
