Reality Is Lyrics by SevenSevenThree

773

2018

[Verse 1: K-Reed]
(Hey)
They expect you not to get disappointed
Your whole life, they treat your future like a missed appointment
You done lost years to the grind (grind)
Just to go and find out your people's living a life that they never wanted (Yeah)
Seize the moment, so you stay in the situation you at
Let's not forget the disparities that you face 'cause you black
Like, I ain't dealing with enough tryna make it in rap
I reminisce, but it's harder with a generational gap
So I walk out the front door, my heart full of faith
And truth be told, I kinda never leave the house without it
I'm in my first race, gunning it for first place, I stumbled
Then, I wondered why you were the first to ever doubt it
But, I ain't mad at ya
I promise to never judge you like a mad pastor
Just know Imma keep running like a bad bladder (Hey)
And I will never drop the ball like a bad catcher
[Hook: K-Reed]
How come I want a million dollars but ain't got it yet?
How come I apply, but never got no scholarships?
How teachers tell us "be believers"
Look at us like different species when our dreams don't include none of the college shit
Why tell me the world's mine if I couldn't own it?
Why put it all in my face and not want me to want it?
See, that's the trick, they tell you that your future's your pick
And then tell you what reality is (Uh)
[Verse 2: Demetri]
Freedom of speech; Freedom to say just what I please
Freedom to kick shit to bitches, hit em and leave
With no intent to deceive; Despite who might agree
If I choose to be a pimp, I shall pimp as I please
At ease, please; Save ya judgement
You quick to doubt because your life has been self-destructive
You had dreams to one day be as big as Oprah
But, I'm guessing someone told ya
That you could never measure up; And there you lost your focus
Doesn't going through the motion seem hopeless?
You living in a house that's not a home, aren't you homeless?
Don't hit me with no technically, I've never been no referee
My passion gets my time, you bitches get whatever's left of me
See, I put my voice on mp3s, just for you to live stream
Ain't made a dollar off this shit, but you still play me
And that's enough to make me keep going
Yeah Martin had a dream but best believe we need more, for sure
[Hook: Demetri]
How come I want a million dollars but ain't got it yet?
How come I apply, but never got no scholarships?
How teachers tell us "be believers"
Look at us like different species when our dreams don't include none of the college shit
Why tell me the world's mine if I couldn't own it?
Why put it all in my face and not want me to want it?
See, that's the trick, they tell you that your future's your pick
And then tell you what reality is (Uh)
[Interlude]
Girl: My dad, he's an engineer
Boy: Well, my mom, she's a nurse. But, me, Imma grow to be a rapper!
[Hook: SvnSvnThree]
How come I want a million dollars but ain't got it yet?
How come I apply, but never got no scholarships?
How teachers tell us "be believers"
Look at us like different species when our dreams don't include none of the college shit
Why tell me the world's mine if I couldn't own it?
Why put it all in my face and not want me to want it?
See, that's the trick, they tell you that your future's your pick
And then tell you what reality is (Uh)
[Outro: Demetri]
Yeah...
