Statik Selektah
Real Ones
[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah (Statik Selektah)
Yeah

[Verse 1]
No regrets
Aimed for the stars and I landed on the clouds, but I started out with less
I look around the crib and I notice how I'm blessed
Shit is laughable, tears fallin', this must be gratitude
People judge left and right, everyone is fallible
Fuck the world, focus on the babies comin' after you
Middle finger to your opinion of me
I'm livin' for the fam, all you n***as just livin' to please
The boy is gifted how I conjure these writtens with ease
Pity, had to close the arc on 'em, they didn't believe
Give a fuck about a random n***a
My life is real, give a fuck about the fandom, n***a
I'm coppin' buildings, give a fuck about the Phantom, n***a
Fuck these hoes 'cause my wife think I'm handsome, n***a
That's a lesson if you takin' her for granted, n***a
Took her 'round the world, then I took her to her home
Then I copped her a Jumeirah villa (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Life good, know the hate gon' come
And real shit gon' bring fake love
And these days, everybody on the same shit
Seem like everybody on some fake shit
I'm only singin' for the real ones (Real ones, yeah)
All the ones that show me real love (Real love, yeah)
All the ones that have they own mind (Own mind, yeah)
Give me freedom over fame, I ain't tryna play the game, nah (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
Tony Hawk 900, ride 'til the wheels fall
Tickets for my granddad always at the will-call
Wish that you could see me, though, I'm your reincarnation
Yeah, I'm doin' good, but your great-grand is goin' places
We had to scrap for everything that we had
That's why I'm coppin' flights left and right, where is you at?
I'm still savin' for a rainy day, used to have some hurricanes
Lately it's a drizzle 'cause I live the California way
And every time the rain come, I be like, "We needed it"
Prayin' for the good only work when you believe in it
Steppin' on the porch, is it grass that I'm breathin' in?
Boy, I'm from the city, every day is like I'm dreamin' it
Plottin' on the money, as a teen, I was schemin' it
Sell a lil' weed from my jeans, I could see the shit
Just like it was yesterday
Crossroads led me where I'm at and it's a better day
I'm happy that I get to say (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Life good, know the hate gon' come
And real shit gon' bring fake love
And these days, everybody on the same shit
Seem like everybody on some fake shit
I'm only singin' for the real ones (Real ones, yeah)
All the ones that show me real love (Real love, yeah)
All the ones that have they own mind (Own mind, yeah)
Give me freedom over fame, I ain't tryna play the game, nah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 3]
No complaints, I'm rippin' the beat with no restraint
Livin' legend, n***a, I'm G.O.A.T.-ed, it's really no debate
If it had a kick, then I floated, I had to bit to drink
The faces when I'm spittin' got me feelin' like my shit do stink
Straight passionate, bring me back to the back of the
Knitting Factory, Slum Village, Wray & Neph' rum spillin'
Circle cyph, soakin' up the game, we was just children
Told 'em that I work so hard because I love chillin'
Every single hero is destined to be someone's villain
Do it for yourself and everyone that make you love livin'
Can't please everyone
Everyone's a critic when you doin' what they never done
Thought they tripped me up and set me up for a better run
I'm only tryna be a better dad, better son, better husband
Safe space, if you need to chat, come in
Door stay ajar just to let the love in (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Life good, know the hate gon' come
And real shit gon' bring fake love
And these days, everybody on the same shit
Seem like everybody on some fake shit
I'm only singin' for the real ones (Real ones, yeah)
All the ones that show me real love (Real love, yeah)
All the ones that have they own mind (Own mind, yeah)
Give me freedom over fame, I ain't tryna play the game, nah
