That's real love, yeah
Real love, yeah
(Marz)
Real love, yeah
Real love, yeah

[Verse]
I ain't finna tell you never again that my daddy wasn't 'round, I'ma tell you that my granny was
And I ain't finna speak about the shit he had did when he was young
I'ma tell you 'bout the boss and the man he was
Big heart, love hard, comin' from the bottom
When you struggle way you do, it's just a lot you gotta overcome
Thinkin' you was close, but your brother do you dirty
Put a hole in your heart, makе you feel you ain't worthy
Make your heart turn cold, nevеr love again
I was young at the time, but I understand now
That I wasn't your kid, wouldn't beg for your love if I knew what I knew back then
Spent a lot of time in and out state pen'
Writin' you from home, when I'm seein' you again?
Heart hurt bad, see the pain comin' out the pen
When you walk out the door as fast as you came in
And I would stay right there 'til you came back
And I'd never trade you in for another nigga, nah
If you couldn't be my pops, then you'd still be my dog
Used to pray when the cellphone ring, you'd call
I don't care about back then, 'cause you here now
It's been some time that I had to wait
Told myself that you loved me, I never lost faith
All the time you was gone, I was countin' every day
Ain't my pops, but I love you like Grandmama May
I got niggas tryna kill me, so I'm stayin' out the way
But just case they get me, I thought I'd say
Take it back, wouldn't do this shit no other way
I've been hurt my whole life, mean a lot if you stay
Thought I did somethin' wrong 'cause you ain't love me
When they ask who I am, I say, "Bitch, I'm lil' Dee"
I just want you to see I'm as great as can be
Ask yourself why I'm still here when you left me?

[Interlude]
You know, you know, I, I don't blame Amir at all
I just, I just went through the same thing, so
I understand where you come from and
You try, you try to love somebody as much as you can, but
You know, at, at the same time, I'm not finna deal with shit that don't need to be dealt with, so (Marz)
But, you know, I
I do a lot of shit in my life, like
Just to, you know, prove to you that I'm, I'm worth somethin', you know?
I just
I just want you to see what I, what I see in me, and
I know who I am, you know?
Wanna be the best I can be, I want you to see
I, I, I could be the best I can be, I want
I want you to be the best you can be, you know?

[Outro]
That's real love, yeah (Marz)
That's real love, yeah
That's real love, yeah
That's real love, yeah
