Real Now

I've been goin through some shit
That's gettin' real now
People dying all around me man
I'm tellin you this shit is gettin real now
Lost my grandma didn't know it
Can you tell me how that feel now?
Got a message saying sorry for your loss
I didn't know if it was real now
Praying that they got wrong number
Tell me how the fuck I gotta deal now

I was goin thru the motions
I was doin all my shit
Turnin twenty in the city
I was too focused to quit
Got on FaceTime with my granny
And she told she was proud
One week later she was gone
And now she up above the clouds
Never got the chance to tell her
That I loved her for her legacy
Everything she did
And all she wanted
Was the best for me
Tell me why the good times
Always comin' with the bad
Never thought I'd see the tears
Ever comin from my dad
I been on a mission ever since
Get it while I can
Everyday I gotta reminisce
Thinkin bout the past
I been killin all these beats
I've been shittin on these rappers
I've been prayin that I
Never gotta settle livin average
Gotta buy my mom a crib
Gotta buy my dad a whip
Gotta buy my bro the world
Gotta get it while I live
I don't take no shit for granted
Cuz I seen it come and go
Imma take over the planet
Yeah you fuckers better know

I've been goin through some shit
That's gettin' real now
People dying all around me man
I'm tellin you this shit is gettin real now
Lost my grandma didn't know it
Can you tell me how that feel now?
Got a message saying sorry for your loss
I didn't know if it was real now
Praying that they got wrong number
Tell me how the fuck I gotta deal now

I been battlin' these thoughts
That been runnin' through my mind
Tryna make my parents proud
Takin one step at a time
But nobody understands
All the shit that I've been goin thru
Workin' on the music
While I'm studying in dental school
Thinkin bout just dropping out
And doin what I love
But I can't imagine
Leavin' my whole family in the mud
But they never raised a coward
Imma finish what I started
Imma juggle all this shit
And keep on workin' at my hardest
I been goin where my heart is
Yeah I know that I'm the smartest
Never think about the parties
I been doin what my part is
I been battlin' the best
Imma let God do the rest
I'm not gettin' any rest
Workin' till I got up next
Yeah I know this shit
Ain't what it seems
But I know I'm blessed
Every time that life is hard
Man I know that shit a test
They been tryna cut the weak
Only made it for the best
I just pray before I sleep
And now I get what I request
