It’s time to go all out Heed these words coming out my mouth I’ve held back for too long I’ve been feinin' to get this off my chest And say this out loud False messenger, false prophet You never suffered a day in your life You know you need to stop it You look good as a clone, man Live your own life and don’t pretend You don’t know what it’s like To get beat down and shit on by life I’ve seen it all before Yes blood, I’ve been through war Straight facts, no lies The truth is in my hungry eyes Let me tell you it’s not easy You better believe me This is real Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes You better believe me 'Cause this is real Now this one goes out to the people who struggle through The ones that fight the odds and break the mold And put it all on the line just for survival 'Cause you know what it’s like You’ve been through the same fight You know what it is to face the end But for all of you that try to pretend You don’t know what it’s like To get beat down and shit on by life I’ve seen it all before Yes blood, I’ve been through war Straight facts, no lies The truth is in my hungry eyes Let me tell you, it’s not easy You better believe me This is real Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes You better believe me 'Cause this is real Sing it with me if you know it’s real Sing it with me if you feel it too You better believe me 'Cause this is real With our backs against the wall, we stand tall With our backs against the wall, we stand tall We will stand tall With our backs against the wall, we stand tall We will stand tall Fucking hell, I’ve heard it over and over again How you’ve been through the struggle How you’ve been through the war But we know that’s a lie my friend Fall back with the hate that you’re spewing Forgive him father, cause’ he doesn’t know what he’s doing Life’s about survival, and we're survivors So don’t act like you’re the only one Let me tell you it’s not easy You better believe me This is real Well I know, well I know it’s hard sometimes You better believe me 'Cause this is real Sing it with me if you know it’s real If you've been there, been through the pain Been through the hell, you know it’s real Sing it with me if you feel it too You better believe me cause this is real
