Realest Talk

The name is T-I-Double down on that last letter
And if you ask why, I'll say "there ain't none better"
This all came to me through a vision
While my niggas copped the first Cherry Cysco I was sipping
Thoughts was rushin', doin laps around my brain
Passing around the frames, of all the pictures painted of dreams I wanna obtain
Gettin' it out the mud, planting vegetation
Showin' growth through the soils of trials and tribulations
Look, eyes in the back of my head, seein' massive sides
Of how many livin' their lives while being chastised
They wonder why we always down to clip up
Never want their true callin' hittin voicemail, they pick up
DUH! Not everyone has the luxury to make the space
Lookin' at galaxies, searchin' for a vacant place
To take pole position, so we can find a lane to stay
Once I sit on throne, I promise I'll create the way
Yeah

But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
Probably the illest thing they never spoke
But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
Probably the illest thing they never spoke
But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
It's the realest talk I ever wrote
The realest talk I ever wrote

Sentiments aren't the same when compelling the youth
Niggas show no fear but petrified to tell the truth
Look, it's hard not snatching out the tongue of the tasteless
Running the face-lifts, of the out of control, tryna play us
Lack a system, but they bluffin' lives, con soles
Aww no, dumping this trash on the curb, pronto
Circles small for a reason
Phonies shoot in the gym with you, but they'll say "Practice?" all season
Then they never start, still on the bench, mad at the world
Instead of taking responsibility, letting history unfurl
I play my part, accept the role and make an effort for the click
For all my niggas nightmares, dreaming to uplift
Their livelihood, ending tragedy before it even begins
So we stay fly without needing the winds
Combing the separation between image and real
Giving the feel of an assassin, itching to kill
We Ready To Go

But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
Probably the illest thing they never spoke
But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
Probably the illest thing they never spoke
But it's the realest talk I ever wrote
It's the realest talk I ever wrote
The realest talk I ever wrote
