t-money from the 5 - die a real one lyrics
[intro]
you know there’s a lot of rappers out here talkin’ about things that don’t really matter
there’s not enough people talkin’ about what’s goin’ on in sudan
what’s happenin’ to the rohingya people
or where are the missin’ indigenous women
but i ain’t tryna be like that
i wanna stay woke, do my part, get right and live my life with a purpose
and if i die
[chorus]
now i lay me down to sleep (down to sleep)
i pray the lord my soul to keep (soul to keep)
i hope my actions represent me (represent me)
‘cause everybody knows that talk is cheap (talk is cheap)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one
[verse 1]
uh, i ain’t never had to steal, son (nah)
i ain’t never had to deal, son (never)
i ain’t never had to k!ll, son (uh)
i’m just tryna keep it real, son
but i know the definition of hard work
it’s like pushin’ weights until your muscles and your arms hurt
i’ve had dreams of whippin’ in a convert
and makin’ half a milli off a concert
but on the real
i know what it’s like to lose a loved one (yeah)
i know what it’s like to cause a heartbreak when you love somebody
i know what it’s like to disappoint the ones that’s closest to you
know what it’s like when your well-being’ needs you to cut somebody
i haven’t always told the truth
but i’m spittin’ facts when i say my home is in the booth
i ain’t lyin’ when i say we need to focus on the youth
need to raise em up right because they gon’ be the future
fix up the past like a suture
we gotta take a stand, we can’t be neutral
youngins getting k!lled listenin’ to rap music
and the justice system seems like there’s a trap to it
when they see us they see people that’s a threat
we just tryna live our lives without it comin’ to an end prematurely
george stinney wasn’t s’post to die that early
we deserve better than that surely
keep it real when we talkin’ ‘bout genocide
women disappearin’ in the north, but they tellin’ lies
just be honest, there’s a problem goin’ on
we can all live together in peace without encroachin’ on each other’s rights
we don’t need to get into another fight
we should be more sympathetic to each other’s plights
i was talkin’ ‘bout it with my mom the other night
i said i wanna make a difference in the world before i die
keep it real until i die
squash the beef, keep it leave
right my wrongs before i die
i won’t cry at my funeral cause i know i did my best
i ain’t worried ‘cause i know i’m highly favored and i’m blessed, yeah
[chorus]
now i lay me down to sleep (down to sleep)
i pray the lord my soul to keep (soul to keep)
i hope my actions represent me (represent me)
‘cause everybody knows that talk is cheap (talk is cheap)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one (yeah)
i hope i die a real one
[outro]
i’ma do my dance, do the thriller
i’m chocolate, not vanilla, yeah
t-money keep getting realer
ain’t no god without silla
