Uhh, Food & Liquor
|
Yeah, my man said he wanted somethin real..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Somethin he could recognize, somethin he could feel..
|
feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
Baby girl said she was in the mood for somethin real..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Somethin that could make her move
|
Somethin she could feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
|
Lusssst... sometimes can override trusssst
|
She said that's why she gave it up
|
My man said blood spilled out of everything he tou-chhhhed
|
He crushed everything he crushed
|
Ruined everything he loved, he just wanted to rushhhhh
|
Blamed it on the times bein rough
|
Doin dirt, with the devil, chasin after the dusssst
|
Make a fussss, if it's them, but we hushhh, if it's us
|
|
That's why, my momma said she wanted somethin REAL..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Somethin she could be proud of, somethin she could FEEL..
|
feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
She said they so used to not havin nuttin real..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
That they don't know how to act
|
They don't know how to feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
|
Lifffffe... ain't meant to come around twiiiice
|
Yeah, that's why I gotta get it right
|
They said I got it honest now I gotta give it LIFE
|
But sleep on it, that's why God give you night
|
I mean, I had a dream that, God gave me FLIGHT
|
Too fly for my own good so, God gave me plight
|
If I wake up in the mornin now I gotta give 'em SIGHT
|
Make 'em see, break 'em free, ain't a G, sho' you right
|
|
The game is not to give 'em nuttin REAL..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Nothin they could use, nuttin that they could FEEL..
|
feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
Give 'em a bunch of lies and teach 'em that it's REAL..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
So that's all that they a-know
|
That's all that they a-feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
|
Struggle... yeah yeah, another sign that God love you
|
Cause on the low, bein po', make you humble
|
Keep they names in my rhymes to try and keep them out of trouble
|
Cause bein po', also teach you how to hustle
|
All they want is some shoes or some rims for they bubble
|
Now that I got my own, I can hit them with a couple
|
Couple, my homies so they ain't got no reason to cuff you
|
That's my plan, if I can, on the man, up above you
|
|
That's why, I gotta give 'em somethin REAL..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Somethin they could recognize, somethin they could FEEL..
|
feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
To my homies on the block I gotta give 'em somethin real..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Somethin that'll make 'em stop
|
Somethin they can feel.. feel.. feel.. feel
|
|
Yo! For real, really real, yeah!
|
Know what it is, woo!
|
Baby girl said she was in the mood for somethin REAL..
|
real.. real.. real.. real
|
Let's go!
