Emcee N.I.C.E. — Is It Real? — lyrics

INTRO
Emcee N.I.C.E. & J Will:
(Everything that’s on my mind, is it real?
Living the life)
You got a lot of people with opinions man
A lot of people who masquerades as scholars of the word
With opinionated views founded by half of the facts
Facts they use to skew your purpose
And have you asking questions like, is it real?
Everything on my mind, is it real?

VERSE 1
Emcee N.I.C.E.:
I’m sitting by the dock of the bay
Counting greys as i’m Watching the waves
Rewinding the days
From kodak to 1080 display
Things are clearer from further away
I’m giving him praise
I could’ve fell in the deep
Be that felon that put hеll in yo sleep
Uh, I could’ve
Pulled them straps that put shеlls in your meat
Cracked your soul, while I fed on your grief
Yeah, I could’ve
Grew up in chuco, right next to el chapo
With vatos who wasn’t, feeling the choco
That’s loco!
Hate was systemic, as we battled for crumbs
Not realizing the battle was for slums
That’s loco!
My father told me, that I’m the fountain of life
Hit’em with that windex when, yeah you show’em your light
And let those that walk from silver lake be brought to the right
Delivered on site, despite getting caught by the night, he’s real

CHORUS
Emcee N.I.C.E. & Erica Mason:
It’s something about this life that got me riding on the wave
I’m in my own lane you can’t stop me
You can’t knock me off my game
I let-em talk that talk
I walk my walk
Oh the flame, oh it feels
So good, when it’s real

VERSE 2
Emcee N.I.C.E.:
Is it real? That always the question
Until you start to countin’ dem blessings
Screaming out for protection
Screaming out for direction
As you, as you usher confessions
Fighting depression
This ain’t no jauqin phoenix
That’s why I fight these demons
But im the fox thats beamon
Through the wire i’m streaming
Through the fire i’m gleaming, im shockin nem cons
With them popular chimes
In your system it’s the optimus prime
Yeah
Understand you can’t mock my father
What you sow will leave deep in the water
It’s the lake of fire
When you hesitate to shake your desire
Best believe i’m just trying to inspire before it get to real
Un, un, un, un, un, un
Yeah
Before it get to real

CHORUS
Emcee N.I.C.E. & Erica Mason:
It’s something about this life that got me riding on the wave
I’m in my own lane you can’t stop me
You can’t knock me off my game
I let-em talk that talk
I walk my walk
Oh the flame, oh it feels
So good, when it’s real
When it’s real, yeah
Everything that’s on my mind, is it real?
When it’s real, yeah
When it’s real, aye
When it’s real, yeah

BRIDGE
(Erica Mason won’t you talk to em for a lil bit)
Erica Mason:
Aye, Tell me if it’s real, or just imitation
Got me all up in my head no concentration
If God is all I see that’s all i’m taking
Everybody taking shifts I ain’t neva changing
I ain’t neva changing
I ain’t neva changing
I ain’t neva changing
I ain’t neva changing
