LeVae - Be Real (Read Between the Lines) Lyrics




[ Featuring Fino Demico, Zoe Genesis ]

I need you to listen closely so you get the message
Don't be acting like you real when you got no perspective
The public pressure got creatives afraid of rejection
Popping pills to clear your thoughts, yet your mind is affected
Music is all about expression, sincerity speaks
How you expect to spread the word with no freedom of speech
How you expect to get on top with no possible reach
It's like having a lot of shit on your plate and nothing to eat
I could have lied and said this life I live is sorta great
I could have lied and sold your dreams, promising better days
I could have lied over a bottle of that chardonnay
I could have lied but I don't do that shit for heaven's sake
Niggas nowadays are gone like the wind
They follow every single thing that they believe is a trend
One thing that isn't common is ironically common sense
They say people Fake it till you make it, but I can never pretend

Would you be real with me
The way I'm real with you
Please don't tell no lie, this ain't no interview
I can read between the lines, you ain't telling the truth
Would you real with me
The way I'm real with you
Please don't tell no lie, this ain't no interview
I can read between the lines, you ain't telling the truth

As I... Savor the breeze, My enemies Rest In Peace
I Sip On Some Tea, picking expensive beef out my teeth
Failure Is No Option, That's my road to no defeat
I still prefer the silence, Midas doesn't live in speech
Read between the lines, Be yourself and no one else
Coz everybody's taken like Liam Neeson himself
I feel like the modern-day Simon Peter tonight
But instead of denial, I missed 3 calls from Jesus Christ
Wake up at 5am, light up a smoke
Been cooking hooks with peter's pans till I am burning the stove
Look what it took to be the man, you niggas hanging off ropes
Because you chose to copy men who have the emptiest souls
You could've died a couple times before You woke today
Look at you poppin bottles with a budget full of change
Reflection ain't the same, you think the mirror playing games
See you don't recognize yourself because you're someone else today
See God is a comedian he made me realize
The ironies of life, you know, the really funny kind
It's really crazy coz when I discovered it I was high
I needed my own privacy to read between the lines okay

Would you be real with me
The way I'm real with you
Please don't tell no lie, this ain't no interview
I can read between the lines, you ain't telling the truth
Would you real with me
The way I'm real with you
Please don't tell no lie, this ain't no interview
I can read between the lines, you ain't telling the truth

This ain't random
Now you know
This Ain't a phantom
Its a ghost
I'mma get it
Its the life I chose
All this faking
Bring the antidote

You are not my friend, I cannot pretend
You spread a lot of rumors nigga, CNN
I can never hang with phony niggas, no offense
All the posing is gone push a nigga to the edge
Yes I said it once, and ama say twice again
Worked a little appetite I'm hungry for the bread
All my soldiers ready, get the strap, I got a vest
This a war zone, welcome to the Armageddon
Bedtime nigga night night
OH you really got a curfew
Even though you picked the wrong fight
I aint never gone hurt you
Let me tell you a little something nigga, they ain't teach you patience is a virtue
Ama get it however I get it, I gotta keep the money moving in circles

Too chilled with the vocals, got em sounding so amazing
All you niggas got FOMO, man that shit don't phase me
Now a Nigga whipping in a four-door, that shit still won't change me
Rest In Peace to maGogo, granma done raise me

This ain't random
Now you know
This Ain't a phantom
Its a ghost
I'mma get it
Its the life I chose
All this faking
I got the antidote
