Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse] The pen heavy, draggin’ ink through the mud trenches Truth sharper than a barber with them clean edges No pretend fences, I walk where the wolves dine Stomach growlin’, clock tickin’, hunger's on my mind Shadows whisper secrets that the sun can't mute Fake ones fade faster than a cheap tattoo A million masks, but I see through the parade I’m the real one, ain't no role I ever played [Chorus] I’m the real one, born where the lies decay Heart forged in the fire, never fade away You could talk your talk, but I don’t run When it’s all said and done, I’m the real one [Verse 2] Streets raised me, but I raised the bar higher Spit flames, turn the cipher to a brush fire They mimic moves, but they lackin' the blueprint I’m ancient wisdom wrapped in a new print Fist full of dreams, pockets full of lint A lifetime of lessons hidden in the glint Of my eye, while the fake ones crumble like clay Real ones don’t fold, we just pave our own way [Chorus] I’m the real one, born where the lies decay Heart forged in the fire, never fade away You could talk your talk, but I don’t run When it’s all said and done, I’m the real one
