Shabaz's Notes
Verse 1: Shabaz
Verse 2: Eclipz
This song is basically about embrasing reality.
(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).
