Real Thing (feat. Elohim)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every day, I try, it gets a little harder
Tryna keep my head, head above water
Stumbling, fumbling, falling to my knees
Praying I will get a better day please
I can't ignore
I'm halfway out the door
But I just want
To feel you more
I'm looking for the real thing
Always looking for the real thing
But tell me, is the real thing
Even a real thing?
(Real thing, real thing)
Fuck you when you fuck me over
But I'll be here to hold when you call me over
I wanna feel alright (alright)
So, let's stay up all night (all night)
Every time I leave, it gets a little harder
Scared to touch the fire, but I wanna get higher
Wandering, wondering if I'll ever be
Capable of seeing what's in front of me (front of me)
Looking for the real thing
Always looking for the real thing
But tell me, is the real thing
Even a real thing?
(Real thing, real thing)
Da, da, da
Da, da, da
Da, da, da
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh (looking for the real thing)
Oh, ooh, ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh
Oh, woa, oh
Oh, woah, oh
Oh, ooh, woah
Oh, oh, woah
Looking for the real thing
Always looking for the real thing (for the real thing)
But tell me, is the real thing
Even a real thing?
Looking for the real thing
Always looking for the real thing (real thing)
But tell me, is the real thing
Even a real thing?
Real thing, real thing
