"Real You" lyrics
(Dmac on the fuckin' track)
(Damn, Kai, you goin' crazy)
I miss them days where I wouldn't even crack a smile (No)
All the times when I ain't want nobody around (At all)
Worst thing I could ever did was let my guard down
They only did damage it and played with my heart
They only took advantage, left a nigga scarred again (Left a nigga scarred)
But to tell the truth, I'm smarter than them all (For sure)
Gotta play a duck to catch a duck
When you was down, I lifted you up
Don't be surprised if them niggas tryna set you up and wet you up
Open your eyes, protect your heart and your mind (For sure)
Sometimes I play blind but trust me, I'm peepin' everythin' (Hmm-mm)
I love to make them think they won when they runnin' game (Runnin' game)
Throwin' salt, I still never went against the grain (Hell no)
But fuck it, I done put my heart on a shelf (On a shelf)
All out of love, I ain't got nothin' left (Got nothin' left)
Took losses and crosses, I done seen everythin' but death
Fuck it, put a "I" in "Team" (Yeah)
Some of them niggas around don't even believe in your dream
Everythin' turned you fine when you realize you don't need 'em
Heard a lot about the old P, I need to meet him
Trust me, you don't, he don't even like people (Don't like people)
Heard them drugs turn him into a friendly ass nigga (That shit crazy)
I got used and abused by a bunch of ass kissers (That shit crazy)
Family used to tell me that I was a sad nigga
Whole time I'm protectin' my energy
Now, look, old friends they done turned into enemies (Turned into enemies)
Call me negative but that shit don't even get to me (Hell no)
Just 'cause I'd rather not be around them fake ass smiles
And I'ma keep poppin' my Perc' 'cause that shit helped for a while
And I'ma keep stayin' alert 'cause I don't know who around
Say they love but they really wanna lay me down
Rather you hate me forever, shit, gone take me now (Take me)
It only made a nigga stronger, it didn't bring me down (Let's go)
Staring at the world through my rearview (Through my rearview)
See a bunch of people say they feel you but really wanna kill you (Really wanna kill you)
It's time to go back to the real you, Poppa (To the real you, Poppa)
That shit will probably heal you, Poppa (It's time to go back to the real you, Poppa)
Actin' like you know me, you don't know me
Time to go back to the real you, Poppa
Shit will probably heal you, Poppa
(Damn, Kai, you goin' crazy)
I miss them days where I wouldn't even crack a smile (No)
All the times when I ain't want nobody around (At all)
Worst thing I could ever did was let my guard down
They only did damage it and played with my heart
They only took advantage, left a nigga scarred again (Left a nigga scarred)
But to tell the truth, I'm smarter than them all (For sure)
Gotta play a duck to catch a duck
When you was down, I lifted you up
Don't be surprised if them niggas tryna set you up and wet you up
Open your eyes, protect your heart and your mind (For sure)
Sometimes I play blind but trust me, I'm peepin' everythin' (Hmm-mm)
