The Real

I speak to the streets and churches - (with) hooks beats and verses
Look beneath surface so you can see the serpent - shook
I plant my seed - i plan to see - some growth
Y'all dudes want to slander me - but no
Man on the set - is demanding respect - aannndd
I'm commanding the best - plus the planet is set - maaannn
Listen - i put my heart in this beat
So i speak life like my words got a heartbeat
(clear) -- i'm bringing it back to life - i'm hype
So rewind - right back to the beginning
To the time of - beats and rhymes
I - speak my mind - with - ease my lines
Come out of my mind dawg you just can't see me
I ain't even tryin' and y'all whining like cece
See? my style got the usual fear
Y'all need to just sit down like it's musical chairs
Chorus:
Y'all dudes wanna judge me - ya'll dudes can't touch me
That's why the streets still love me
I'm real
Hush ya mouth and jus sit down cause i gotta sick style
And it's real
