kmakze - real life lyrics

if this is real life, then put me back to sleep
because the sooner i fade, it’s like the sooner i eat
wake up, munching on my knuckles, trying to get a meal
i feel as though my soul just wants me to kneel
at the foot of the bed, pray for some food on my breath
only met with a stomach rumble, again and again
it’s like it speaks to my heart, but never talks to my brain
makes me bust out a pen, not do away with the pain
instead of spending on food, my money goes to the bills
and i keep writing and rhyming like there’s a chance i might build
a career out of rap, carve out a life of my own
fill my fridge every night, so full i never leave home
f-ck it, just give me some noodles and then some water to boil
i’ll make the best of this sh-t, gourmet food that won’t spoil
it’s just a dream that i have, it goes away when i wake
and i look down at my hands and see dents my t–th made

(hook) x2

this is real life, when you got bills to pay
it’s real life, when every day feels the same
this is real life, when you hate what you do
it’s real life, when no one else has got a clue

if this is real life, i must be out on the street
don’t got a roof on my head, just a back seat where i sleep
and i don’t gotta pay rent, but then tell that to my neck
it’s so cramped and uncomfortable in the way that it’s bent
like all the time that i’ve spent, just sitting writing my raps
makes me second guess the path i chose to draw on the map
feels like slap in the face when it’s my friends who succeed
because i work just as hard and have no college degree
there to show for my efforts, it’s just a pile of books
in which i scribble my life, as a mess of verses and hooks
it’s just the best i can do, look like a deadbeat to you
but i’m a poet to some, ’cause what i spits is the truth
then again some isn’t all, and that explains why i’m broke
trying to live off of minimum wage, my life is a joke
and i’m the only one laughing, because i’m too small to notice
i could fall off of this earth and be forgotten in moments

(hook) x2

if this is real life i need a job with some benefits
can’t afford any health care to help care for my accidents
got a toothache that’s constant, all hours driving me nuts
but a dentist’s expensive correcting nerves in my gums
break an arm and i’m f-cked, there’s just no way i’m insured
so i’ll be paying ’til i die and even then i’ll be short
instead of p-ssing down heirlooms, my kid’s acquiring debt
because his dad is a loser who never saved him a cheque
but to do that, i got to find a girl who would screw me
and at this point i’m so broke not even a hooker would do me
let alone a girl with some pride, i tell a girl that i rap
then she tells me it’s cute but i’m not what she wants in a man
it’s just the way that it goes, something i’ve grown to accept
and really what have i done to even earn her respect
this sh-t just gives me a headache, oh wait, i know what that is
it’s the f-cking t–th in my mouth i can’t afford to get fixed

(hook) x2
