"Real" lyrics - LUPE FIASCO

Uh, Food & Liquor

Yeah, my man said he wanted something real, real, real, real, real
Something he could recognize, something he could feel, feel, feel, feel, feel
Baby girl said she was in the mood for something real, real, real, real, real
Something that could make her move, something she could feel, feel, feel, feel

Lust, sometimes can override trust
She said that's why she gave it up
My man said blood spilled out of everything he touched
He crushed everything he crushed
Ruined everything he loved, he just wanted the rush
Blamed it on the times being rough
Doing dirt, with the devil, chasing after the dust
Make a fuss if it's them, but we hush if it's us

That's why, my mama said she wanted something real, real, real, real, real
Something she could be proud of, something she could feel, feel, feel, feel, feel
She said they so used to not having nothing real, real, real, real, real
That they don't know how to act, they don't know how to feel, feel, feel, feel

Life ain't meant to come around twice
Yeah, that's why I gotta get it right
They said I got it honest now I gotta give it light
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 morning now I gotta give 'em sight
Make 'em see, break 'em free, ain't a G, show you right

The game is not to give 'em nothing real, real, real, real, real
Nothing they could use, nothing 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 know, that's all that they 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
Cuff 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 something real, real, real, real, real
Something they could recognize, something they could feel, feel, feel, feel, feel
To my homies on the block I gotta give 'em something real, real, real, real, real
Something that'll make 'em stop, something they can feel, feel, feel, feel

Yo, FNF are real
Really real
Yeah
Know what it is
Woo

Baby girl said she was in the mood for something real, real, real, real, real
Let's go

Sarah Green:
So real, so real
So real, so real
So real, so real
So real, so real
So real, so real
So real, so
