Lyrics

[Verse 1]
These tats on my face don't mean nothin'
I was locked up, that don't mean nothin'
When you make it through the struggle
It tend to mean hustle
The only one in my life to call them **** up
[Verse 2]
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
When you tat my name on
It made me know it's real
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
What you say you don't do
Girl, you know I will
[Verse 3]
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
Still surprised you haven't noticed it yet
The realest you ever met
[Verse 4]
Hustle on Backpage
Now I got her face down
Frownin' while she take it
She don't like to make sounds
Bought a one-way ticket
Put her on the Greyhound
Workin' out hotels
Right before it played out
What's the problem, why you not smilin'?
We in the prime of our life
Supposed to be havin' the time of our life
Excuse the misunderstandin', sometimes you be so demandin'
Don't like to be told what to do
Difficult, but we manage
Said some things I didn't mean
Caused emotional damage
I love the streets, I'm a gangsta
I like to be in them daily
Your mother love me like a son
But I'm not seein' me changin'
A lotta built up frustration
Due to past situations
[Verse 5]
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
When you tat my name on
It made me know it's real
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
What you say you don't do
Girl, you know I will
[Verse 6]
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
Still surprised you haven't noticed it yet
The realest you ever met
[Verse 7]
Turned a hooker to a housewife
And people say, how?
Million dollar vision, you just gotta stay down
Take your pride out the situation, for real
Don't get all in your feelings, babe
Don't throw your weight around
She gon' kill herself if I leave
But she know I don't play around
I got one text in this evenin'
Say she just made it to town
Wonderin' if I could see her
Got some things to figure out
I ain't mean it, I was bluffin'
Thinkin' please don't leave me now
Boys II Men, I'm down on bended knees
Listenin to The Weeknd, now
Your friends hate me, sayin'
Girl, look, when did he get out?
My mother left when I was young
I'm commitment-shy, so when my feelings get involved
I tend to run
Sometimes emotions get the best of me, clearly
I ain't never try to straddle no fences
Been back and forth for a minute
And I know I seem reluctant
I been hurt
And you the only one that mean somethin'
[Verse 8]
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
When you tat my name on
It made me know it's real
I ain't too hard to tell you how I feel
What you say you don't do
Girl, you know I will
[Verse 9]
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
I'm just the realest that you done met
Still surprised you haven't noticed it yet
The realest you ever met
