[Verse 1]
I see your hands, they never shake
You don't front when the room get fake
Same old coat, same clean shoes
You keep it solid, that's why I choose
You don't need gold to shine
You got that calm in your spine
When the wolves start circling near
You stand your ground, you stay clear
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
What you don't say
You move one way
You don't switch lanes
[Chorus]
Real recognize real
That's the way you feel
Real recognize real
You don't make it up
Real recognize real
When the pressure builds
Real recognize real
We don't need much
[Verse 2]
Late bus stop, rain on the curb
You gave your word, I felt every word
No big talk, just a steady nod
Like a prayer you wear on your job
If the whole world turns strange
You keep your face, you keep your name
I got love for a loyal man
You know the code, you understand
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
What you don't say
You move one way
You don't switch lanes
[Chorus]
Real recognize real
That's the way you feel
Real recognize real
You don't make it up
Real recognize real
When the pressure builds
Real recognize real
We don't need much
[Bridge]
If it gets dark, stay close
If they talk slick, let 'em talk
You and me, we don't fold
We been built too hard
[Final Chorus]
Real recognize real
That's the way you feel
Real recognize real
You don't make it up
Real recognize real
When the pressure builds
Real recognize real
We don't need much
Real recognize real
Say it with your chest
Real recognize real
We know the rest
