Too Real - Yungen, Elise

Maybe I’m too real, it’s either that or I’m overthinking

My man dem eat from my table, drink from my bottle

Even when I’m not drinking, but where the fuck’s friendship when they tear that

apart and that

Ships start sinking, this just the shit I’m thinking

I ain’t ever gone back on a word, I see man go back on chapters

They don’t wanna reverse no favours, I was taught 'don't ever go backwards'

Grew a heart, put man in my will, but it’s like I’m surrounded by actors

Man have grew stingy, man have moved big time, you’d think they were the rappers

They say man dem over them bitches, I’ve got a bitch realer than some man dem

There’s some lying arse niggas around myself when I can’t stand them

But they keep saying «that, that’s mandem, but he ain’t one of mine»

And it’s sad that it takes something to happen for man to realise they’re blind

Stabbed my little nigga, man ran and gave me excuses

I keep thinking if he died, would their reasons still be stupid?

And it kills me, cuh we act like nothing’s happened

It’s the same story, just different hood, and I hate that we follow the pattern

But maybe I’m too real

You’re too real for the niggas

You’re too real

You’re too real for the niggas

You’re too real

Maybe I’m too real

Maybe I’m too real

Maybe my heart’s too big, maybe I give too much

Maybe I’m killing myself tryna make all my people rich as fuck

More of the time I go out my way, and they don’t show the same love back

But if you could turn back time, I’ll do it again, where I’m from I weren’t

raised like that

When Krept & Konan won at the MOBOs, somebody asked me if I’m pissed

Like «I thought them man were your team?

How come you weren’t on that list?»

Forget music, them man are my brothers, how dare you even ask that shit

It nearly brought a tear to my eye when they won, I hope that answers that shit

Some things people don’t understand, but as long as you do, you’re cool

You know why they wanna see you win, when you do then they pray you fall

Man have just got used to it, not saying that I like it

That’s why when I do something good, I just kick back, I don’t hype it

I was in Australia on tour when I heard SQ got killed

I got the text at dinner, I couldn’t even eat my meal

I knew that boy from little youts, I nearly broke my phone

That’s the real meaning of homesick, when it gets so close to home

But maybe I’m too real
