Reality

Hey, welcome to reality

Yeah

Sometimes, we all get away from that real life

You know sit back and think about: What if my life was like this?

It's crazy

And when you think about it

Kinda like a dream

Yeah, Yeah

Imagine a life where you ain't got no reason to cry

It ain't hard to tell the truth when there's no reason to lie

Picture everything bad that ever happened to you

Snap it in two then laugh at those that laughin' at you

Imagine your pain disappears like magic

Everything that ever hurt you never happened

Your dad never left, your mom never cried

Your relationships' perfect, and nobody dies

You feel far from reality yet

I do, so I'mma bring reality back

You never met your dad, gone since you was a kid

Matter fact, he left before you even cried in the crib

And you momma always cryin'

Startin' to mess with your head

To the world, you alive

But to yourself, you're dead

Look in the mirror, heart's so full of rejection

So you cock your fist back, then crack your reflection like

Yeah

I don't like the way that I feel

Lookin' for reality, but this ain't real

What am I supposed to say, yeah

I ain't supposed to feel this way

Yeah

I don't like the way that I feel

Lookin' for reality, but this ain't real

What am I supposed to say, c'mon

I ain't supposed to feel this way

Imagine everyone you knew respected you

Put your name up high when they mentioned you

Never talked about you bad behind your back

And what they say is what they do

And what they are is how they act

Imagine every girl you had never hurt you

And every guy you fell in love with didn't desert you

Every lie on the earth was real

And didn't mind really lettin' out the way they feel

But hold up

Let's slow it down for a minute

Oh no! Lies in your face

I don't get it

What happened? I must have been dreamin' again

Another fake friend in your face playin' pretend

Another liar

Yellin' it ain't nothin' but truth

All cryin', screamin': I would never hurt you

Yeah, like we ain't heard that befo'

You want the truth? What you think I'm rappin' fo'

Picture a man that never did nothin' wrong

Got beaten 'til most of His flesh was gone

Put thorns in His head while they laughed and mocked Him

Devil laughin' down in Hell like: Yeah, I got Him

Imagine nails goin' into your palms

Strapped to a cross

Soldiers strechin' your arms

Like a joke, people all gather around

If you so powerful, then why don't you just come down?

Your mother cryin' at your feet

Breathe your last breath

You want reality, man that's as real as it gets

The one true God came down to earth to die

Never committed a sin, yet He died for mine

And seems we all so caught up in the crazy life

Die for the world, then we'll know what crazy like

Gotta be blind homie if you can't see it

So think about it next time yeah before you scream it
