Lyrical Analysis of...
As Real As It Gets
- (Verse 1): Shabaz
- Damn, I Hate making plans cos it don't always work out,
- Who would have thought i would grow up to become a College dropout?
- I guess momma didn't and i guess poppa didn't,
- but they say all rich ends always had poor beginnings.
- Its ironic the way i make the right decisions at the wrong time,
- trying forget what hurt me but not the lesson it taught me,
- forgot about those days but i still remember the moments,
- to be successful i had to see my mentor as an opponent.
- I never stop trying cos If its important to me i would find a way,
- Am ready for real deal when y'all thinking bout foreplay.
- Decide to start the journey of my life with a single step,
- trying to burn my regrets as am lighting up a cigarette.
- Trust is like a paper, if it crumbles then it cant be perfect,
- so i took the skeletons out of my closet but it ain't close yet,
- what do you do when life is too short to worry and too long to wait?
- forget bout the reasons why things don't work and hold on to faith,
- Cos this is as real as it gets...
- (Hook)
- this is as real as it gets,
- tell me what you expect,
- this is as real as it gets,
- you get what you deserve
- This is as real as it gets,
- so sit back and observe
- This is as real as it gets,
- and we enjoying the ride,
- we enjoying the ride...(till the hook fades out)
- (Verse 2): Eclipz
- I'm trying to be different, set a trend in my ends
- Get people to build relationships instead of making dents
- My city crowded as hell, yet isolated as a pandemic
- But I'm spreading real shit and ask for nothing more than a mention
- I never understood the reason why people say fake shit
- The moment you live a lie is the moment you can't escape it
- What's the purpose of fronting on the surface
- When on the inside your story don't link up like cursive
- Everything I do is handwritten by yours sincerely
- I do this rap shit to help the people I hold dearly
- To all my homies in the projects with no money in their pockets
- Tryna reach the stars without knowing the science of them rockets
- I say follow your dreams, but don't continue to sleep
- The contingent nature of life is sure to turn out your lights
- But never give up, no bruv don't ever give up
- Working hard is key but sometimes it's just never enough
- Gotta be as real as it gets...
- (Hook)
- this is as real as it gets,
- tell me what you expect,
- this is as real as it gets,
- you get what you deserve
- This is as real as it gets,
- so sit back and observe
- This is as real as it gets,
- and we enjoying the ride,
- we enjoying the ride...(till the hook fades out).
