Real Ones (3:00 Version)

(Soft piano + 808 fade in) Yeah… yeah… Turn me up… We came from nothing… [Chorus – 0:15–0:40] I been grinding every day, I can’t slow down Came from nothing, now they watching how I glow now Same ones used to doubt me hit my phone now But I’m focused, I ain’t switching on my bros now I kept it real, even when it got cold Heart full of scars but I’m chasing the gold I had to learn how to stand on my own Now they see me, I ain’t walking alone [Verse 1 – 0:40–1:15] I remember nights I was stuck in my head No help, had to get it instead They ain’t see the tears that I shed Now I’m counting blessings, not the words that they said Young boy with a dream, had a vision No guide, had to move with precision Every loss turned into ambition Now I’m locked in, I don’t need their permission I was down, had to stay on my grind Now I’m up, got the weight off my mind They ain’t see all the pain I survived Now I shine, yeah the stars all aligned [Pre-Chorus – 1:15–1:30] I been patient, I been waiting my time Now it’s mine, I ain’t falling behind Told my mama I’ma make it, no lie Now I’m rising, see it all in my eyes [Chorus – 1:30–1:55] I been grinding every day, I can’t slow down Came from nothing, now they watching how I glow now Same ones used to doubt me hit my phone now But I’m focused, I ain’t switching on my bros now [Verse 2 – 1:55–2:25] Now it’s money coming in, feeling different Still the same, I ain’t changing my mission I don’t talk, I just move with intention Every step got me closer to winning They was sleeping, now they see I’m awake Everything that I wanted, I take Had to cut off the fake for my sake Now my circle small, that’s the move that I make Came far, I ain’t going back now New life, got a different path now Used to pray just to make it out Now I’m living what I talked about [Bridge – 2:25–2:40] (Beat drops softer) Late nights, I was on my own Cold world, had to grow alone Now my name ringing through the zone I built this—this my throne [Final Chorus – 2:40–3:05] I been grinding every day, I can’t slow down Came from nothing, now they watching how I glow now Same ones used to doubt me hit my phone now But I’m focused, I ain’t switching on my bros now I kept it real, even when it got cold Heart full of scars but I’m chasing the gold Now I’m up and I’m chasing my goals Real ones only, that’s all that I know [Outro – 3:05–3:15] Yeah… Still me… Never changed… just grew…
