Real Me (Remix) - Hurricane Wisdom

Take it back to my journey Being broke was not working Minimum wage I wasn't paid But I knew that it'd be worth it Go to school but not learning Learning bout my main purpose Selling out shows, doing the most Know that I gotta go earn it Pro tools on my laptop Everyday I be wrapped up Making beats and I'm making songs But nobody would put me on Started out on my Soundcloud 50 plays and I'm gassed up Knew that I gotta keep going cuz people be watching now I cannot back up Mama told me I'd make it Pops told me be patient Brother told me I'd pop off Never wanna be famous Instagram makes animals People focused on getting views I just been focused on music I'm hoping to do everything that I said I'd do I remember when they thought I wouldn't make it I remember when they thought that I was crazy I remember every time that I fell down But it turned me to the man that I am now This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling Growing up never the best But I got heart in my chest Never the one who would quit History telling the rest People be counting on me so I gotta make everything happen for me Cuz I gotta lotta people waiting on me and I got a family I need to impress Yes Know I'm the man Know I be counting up bands Always remember the past Knew that it never would last Everyone who would've laughed Now they all gone Everything on Don't need a party I gotta make songs People be listening what I'm envisioning but I be hoping the righting my wrongs Yeah Everything that I built up Took a lot of time And a lot of gut Lot of self belief Lot of sacrifice But I let it be This ain't overnight And I stayed down When it got tough And I got friends And they show love So we came up and we stay up This ain't Hollywood I won't change up I know I remember when they thought I wouldn't make it I remember when they thought that I was crazy I remember every time that I fell down But it turned me to the man that I am now This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling

Bullshit dinners and the free champagne Men in suits who think they know it all No one knows me but they know my name That's not real to me Hotel lobby to the aeroplane Another country but they start to look the same Watch the world behind a windowpane That's not real to me When I see my babies run When all the madness has been and gone I'll raise my family and live in peace Now, that's what's real to me, real to me Dying flowers in a dressing room A dangerous time to let your head make up its own mind Got me thinking that the spirit's flown That's not real to me When I see my babies run When all the madness has been and gone I'll raise my family and live in peace Now, that's what's real to me Picnics in the garden Then the children they can play The first day of the summer and I laze here all the day And we'll invite the family 'round And drink some English tea Then I raise up my finger and watch football on TV Yeah, oh Now that's what's real to me When I see my babies run When all the madness has been and gone I'll raise my family and live in peace Now, that's what's real to me That's what's real to me, real to me Wake up, you might be dreamin' Wake up, you might be dreamin' now

To others the pain was obvious The colours of shame, a bruise unjust Abuse of trust can't be wiped I can't remember why I chose to say goodbye I'm terrified of what I might have severed I tried to forget the drowning truth Lashing inside my sea of youth Life seemed a fair sacrifice for peace I can't remember why I chose to say goodbye I'm terrified of what I might have severed I ended up too high But never learned to fly So coming down, I'm very thankful (you were there) I can't remember why I chose to say goodbye I'm terrified of what i might have severed I ended up too high But never learned to fly So coming down, I'm very thankful (you were there)

Suddenly I feel like I've been missing out It's hard to understand it but you're different now Why'd you have to change when you left me My heart has been heavy I ain't feeling steady I've been trying to move on but maybe I ain't ready Maybe I'm just fucked up, my love running empty But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give I gave you all of my time You only wanted me less Couldn't get you off of my mind My friends and family knew best But I never learned to reason Never got it through to my head The same one bleeding me was the same one in my bed And I see you making changes But you wouldn't do it for us And we could've been amazing But you wouldn't show me no love You're making it look painless And I really ain't in no rush But I wish that I could hate everything about you I'm having no luck Can't have my way like that Can't catch a fade like that Can't change the way we act Can't catch a break like that But I wear my heart on my arm because they like that Been in the dark for too long, bring that daylight back In and out this fable Loving you was fatal In the end you gave up I don't think I'm stable And I feel so woozy Every night I lose sleep Hoping I don't lose me Look at how you do me Why'd you have to change when you left me My heart has been heavy I ain't feeling steady I've been trying to move on but maybe I ain't ready Maybe I'm just fucked up, my love running empty But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give Why you gotta be like this? You don't ever read my lips Cut my wrists, you don't wanna be my friend You don't wanna be my bitch You don't wanna see me leave Leave me be You don't wanna see me live Want me stiff You don't wanna feel my pain You don't wanna need my bliss But, I gave that to you An' that attitude I got back from you was too cold Every day I had to brave it at a faster pace and I would acclimate to new lows Wanna act brand new, that's fine Doing what I did for you for another guy I ain't gonna lie, cuz it hurts every time that I see you doing right by another man's side Can't have my way like that Can't catch a fade like that Can't change the way we act Can't catch a break like that But I wear my heart on my arm because they like that Been in the dark for too long, bring that daylight back In and out this fable Loving you was fatal In the end you gave up I don't think I'm stable And I feel so woozy Every night I lose sleep Hoping I don't lose me Look at how you do me Why'd you have to change when you left me My heart has been heavy, I ain't feeling steady I've been trying to move on but maybe I ain't ready Maybe I'm just fucked up, my love running empty But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give But still I give, give, give to you I give, yea yea, I give Suddenly I feel like I've been missing out It's hard to understand it but you're different now
