[Hook] From make believe Well I want to be for real (x3) [Verse 1: Natti] Some are real as the line in their big face bill Others are counterfeit living off of Xerox meal Quickly coming out their mouth like they put out grills See the traffic in the sky, but you take off still Living the high life or limelight, I just like the light lime Fabricating your life, I just have to write mine Be ahead of the game, got to have the right mind I just do it while others just want the Nike signs I respect grind, finish line is asinine Don't grown folks quit stop pretending sometime after nine? This is real life, sh** gets physical Pixar, gangster n***as I find pitiful Trying to back the rep you create is just criminal Stop lying, flatline, digital sales minimal Defibrillators for your career, no one's feeling you A hundred cc's of truth in your life is critical
[Hook] [Verse 2: Deacon the Villain] Listen: maybe Sade can tell you how love rock Play it in the liquor stores or in the drug spots We all want love, but tell me what's love got We'll love you till it changes who you are, then love stops We love Mike, we love Elvis, we love Pac If that's love, n***a, maybe we should all love not Paparazzi love got us fiending for love shots Trying to fill a void, just a hole where love rots Maybe it's a phase, may it be a chapter Just another story you can think on with laughter So either leave or come American disaster Behind all the Maybelline, drywall, and plaster Under the million dollar rug swept ashes And billion dollar lives that make debts from a**ets The fastest can't run from who they are I'd run from self but no man can run that far [Hook]
