Real (Album Version|Explicit)

Real (Album Version|Explicit) - Common/Elijah Blake

You niggas ain't real

I think you need to stop pretending

These niggas ain't ill

We know the deal

Niggas ain't on

Here today and the next you're gone

Cuz you niggas ain't real

And we know the deal

Yeah we know the deal

Eighty seven strip walker

I'm a sh*t talker

F**k all night your dependent what I'm offer

Had a white girl I tossed her

Black girl I lost her

Break bread with the stones

I'm the rock of Gibraltar

Salt of the earth for

What it's worth yo from birth

I was first with a verse

Live niggas don't rehearse

Wear the prophets on the shirt

Yeah yeah that's the creed

I can give a f**k if it's real or a weave

I tell you when you look good

And keep it right there

I'm as important to the Chi

As my ni**a Mike Air

Jordan threes on the feet

As we breeze down lakeshore

These are the days that

We bake more to make more

I been living in the moment lately

It's like the love

And the hate seem to motivate me

Lady lady that body crazy

You been working out of this thing

If it's not tell me if it's really real

I think you need to stop pretending

These niggas ain't ill

We know the deal

Niggas ain't on

Here today and the next you're gone

Cuz you niggas ain't real

And we know the deal

Yeah we know the deal

I'm the sole controller

Opposite of sober

Flow from the south side to south Angola

Mami wanna strip then yeah I'mma poke her

And go all in and stretch it out like yoga

I'm flexin' sexin' oiled up like Texan

Survivor soldier a child is destined

A star is born in a Chicago storm

The name is Common

I'm anything but the norm uh

Six in the mornin' something warm informing

I'm sweatin' like I'm performing on tour in uh

Y'all f**kin' with this like porn

Put ya fists up cuz you know I ride on

New planes and plateaus

Made it through the black hole

I rhyme in a timeless capsule

I rap fo' niggas in the barber shops

And broads that's hot

I run the town I'm a f**kin juggernaut

This sh*t is real

I think you need to stop pretending

These niggas ain't ill

We know the deal

Niggas ain't on

Here today and the next you're gone

Cuz you niggas ain't real

And we know the deal

You niggas ain't real

I think you need to stop pretending

These niggas ain't ill

We know the deal

Niggas ain't on

Here today and the next you're gone

Cuz you niggas ain't real

And we know the deal

Yeah we know the deal
