Life Is Real

[Intro]

Boogie man, boogie man, boogie man

BOOGIE MAN! (Hello children!)

My whole life is real

My life my, my life my, my life my, my life my

A-ha, Brooklyn you know

My life, my life, my life, my life

It's a real thang

Brooklyn, the Bronx in the building, let's go!

[Verse 1]

Listen

My whole life is real, morning news and nights is real

What I spit and I write is real, cuz my life is real

My own life is ill!

Filled with magic's strife to scale

Sun bright, no time to chill, got all type of bills

I got seeds I gotta feed with this

They be needin shit, I got ex-wife beef and shit

That's how deep it get

My whole life is real, my whole life is ill

A fantastic, a beautiful mess

A live nigga in America: the usual stress

I do it to the up, low, the east and the west, I

Do it to most, I do it to death

I do so it good they don't know what to do with theyselves

Well do this: MOVE!

Back, forward, mo'

Life is real, let's move on

[Hook]

My whole life is real, morning news and nights is real

What I spit and I write is real, cuz my life is ILL

Filled with magic's strife to scale

Sun bright, no time to chill

Got all type of bills

I got seeds I gotta feed with this

I got streets I gotta reach with this

That's how deep it get

My whole life is ill, my whole life is real

[Verse 2]

Mornings, noon's, nights

Birthdays, workdays, holidays, funerals. the usual

Life is real!

Sunday to Monday, schoolyard gunplay, politics, bullshit

Life is real!

Shootings, stabbing, free tray, arrest

Crush, kill, destroy, cheques

Death. rebirth

Reach the world but touch the street first

Life goin' every direction but rewind

Niggas is waiting for the light to dive down

On a park a hustler plays the hide out

Somebody's gotta notice it's a matter of time before the world find out

The earth dry out and push the hintin to high ground,life style--Hostile

Real, life real real

So real, too real, news real--edited

The close up block out the rest of it

True evident, false measurement

Crunk superstar, thug president

Tricks allegiance, M-def penmanship

Scribe lively, so timely,that is timeless

And is lovely, and is ugly, as it must be

[Hook]

My whole life is real, morning news and nights is real

What I spit and I write is real, cuz my life is ILL

Filled with magic's strife to scale

Sun bright, no time to chill

Got all type of bills

I got seeds I gotta feed with this

I got streets I gotta reach with this

That's how deep it get

My whole life is real, ha-haa!

[Outro]

Brooklyn know

My life my, my life my, my life my, my life my

B.X. know

My life my, my life my, my life my, my life my

Real niggas all over the world

My life my, my life my, my life my, my life, it's a real thang

Whoooo!

Boogie man!
