Real Recognize Real

Verse 1

Started from the concrete, feet bleeding through the streets

Wrote my name in dust before I ever touched a beat

They copy what I'm doing, but they missing all the pain

Built this whole foundation while they playing in the rain

I was young and hungry, broke but never bent

Every scar's a sermon, every loss's testament

See the game moves slow when you moving it first

Quench the people's thirst before they even know they're thirst

Pre-Chorus

Yeah, I know that look when you recognize the code

It's written in my walk, it's heavy in my load

Chorus

Real recognize real, that's the only law

I came through that fire, yeah, I showed 'em all

Real recognize real, can't fake what's true

I built it from the ashes, now the world pursuing you

Real recognize real, that's the only law

Authentic can't be copied, nah, I'm breaking all the odds

Verse 2

Homie turned to stranger, stranger turned to snake

Watched my back get stabbed for every move I make

But I kept my dignity, my name stayed clean

Told the truth so brutal, made the whole block mean

I was dreaming in the dark with my eyes wide open

Every word I'm speaking is a covenant unbroken

They study my formula but they miss the soul

Can't buy what I'm selling, can't steal what I hold

Chorus

Real recognize real, that's the only law

I came through that fire, yeah, I showed 'em all

Real recognize real, can't fake what's true

I built it from the ashes, now the world pursuing you

Real recognize real, that's the only law

Authentic can't be copied, nah, I'm breaking all the odds

Bridge

First to say it, first to live it

First to give it, watch 'em mimic

Legacy written in the concrete

Every heartbeat, every street beat

Final Chorus

Real recognize real, that's the only law

I came through that fire, yeah, I showed 'em all

Real recognize real, can't fake what's true

I built it from the ashes, now the world pursuing you

Real recognize real, yeah, that's the only code

Authentic never dies, it's the weight I tote
