melvillous – what’s real? lyrics

(ayy, yeah)

hard times we was living tough
happi told me he was quitting music
i told him ”fam, we ain’t giving up”
now he’s back on tour and he’s k!lling stuff
money’s low but we still stand
always gotta keep it trill man
never changing up our position
make real music for the real fans
and that’s real life, no fake ish
couldn’t stop me with a break disc
when i die you can frame this
i make vivid pictures when i paint hits
put my songs in a gallery
i traded in my whole salary
my bank account’s still mad at me
but that’s just the way that it had to be
in the studio at some crazy hours
tiny room but we made it ours
i’ve slept there and i’ve wept there
and one day we might hold a baby shower
till then we keep working (yeah)
the fan base getting bigger now
they’re stopping me when i’m in the town
getting cameras out, it’s all different now

old fans know i been about
2010 with a mix tape, bare free music i was giving out
new fans say they feel it now
never doubt it, they’ll get it later
going up in that elevator
close friends always turn out to be the last ones to come celebrate

yeah that’s my reality (facts)
used to feel a way about (yeah)
now i got tunnel vision
i don’t complain about it (nah)
still on the same mission
ain’t nothing changed about it
man i took so many l’s and i bounced back
should’ve noticed there was something strange about it

that pressure turned me to a diamond (yeah)
that’s the secret they was hiding (woah)
probably thought i’d never find it
but even gold need’s refining (uh)
think i found the silver lining (lining)
all it took me was some timing (timing)
i just needed reminding that i’m in the back seat i ain’t driving
yeah they tried to knock the wind out of me with no way on earth to revive him (revive him)
and when them fears tried drowning me i came out the sea like poseidon (real)
to scare me off you need a lot more than a little thunder and lightening (uh)
i’m more scared to let my team down
nah god forbid cah that’s frightening

i’ve had nightmares (nightmares)
i could fell but i’m right here (i’m right here)
and yeah i thank god for that (yeah)
my bro just got five years
i been getting my sleeves wet (mad)
from the nights i wipe tears
and i’m still tryna process
and that’s why i write bares, i got ideas!

i got mad plans, i wanna change things
pray my way into the mainstream
put a good message in the music
and try change the way kid’s brain thinks (ah yeah yeahh)
yeah, cause everything is so dark now (yeah)
does anybody have a heart now?
everybody’s on this “drill drill”
“dip dip”, “spill spill”
knife crime going through the roof
got swords longer than k!ll bill (ah yeah)
live and die for that male pride (ah yeah)
tryna prove their the real deal (ah yeah!)
the other day i was on the bus
and a convo made me feel ill (yeah yeah)

two boys sitting next to me (yeah)
no older than 17 (ah yeah ah yeah)
saying how they don’t feel safe
and can’t leave the house without weaponry (ah yeah ah yeah)
i’m sorry fam but that’s effery [?]
a heavy heart will be the death of me (ah yeah ah yeah yeah yeah)
sometimes i be feeling like “is god cursing them while he’s blessing me?” (ah yeah ah yeah)
and that’s a mad thought i just deeped it
wait, should i take it back or just keep it?
i ain’t tryna blame god for no reason
he ain’t responsible, we got freedom right? (ohh no no no)
yeah
so that’s more incentive to make it big
i made a hundred songs you can take your pick
and that’s way before i got paid for this (yeah yeah)
way before they was checking for me
wasn’t tryna hear no records from me
they were sleeping on me, now they’re at the shows
jumping up and down like the economy (oh lord!)
i ain’t even tryna brag about it
appreciate the ones repping for me
but still remember that it’s not a given when you spend 180 seconds on me, that’s real (ah yeah ah yeah yeah yeah)
