Real Recognize Real

[Intro]
I don't need no mansion on a hill
I can ball if want, there ain't no stressin' 'bout the bills
What I got and what I do could give a damn on how you feel
I'm just sayin' that the real always recognize real

[Verse 1]
Okay, there's no competition because we all different
You say that you are better when I say, "This dude be trippin'"
Given any day of the week, my rhymes be fat, Peter Griffin
Yeah, you claimin' that you this, but really, you don't meet description
I'm on a mission, got the shovel, knock some heads off
Then dig a grave that leaves a note that says "I'm sorry for your loss"
My mind is undеrrated, high thoughts, I'm elevatеd
Old me was out dated, new me, I renovated
And just for the record, I ain't got no beef
I can bring it to the country, I can bring it to the streets
"Dirtified" is my word and that word I'll always preach
So you better take a seat when the King starts to speak
I'm hearin' lately people bitchin' 'bout this whole movement
If you know me, then you know that I ain't gotta prove shit
I'll have this game lit at any given second
Have them like, "This dude's fire," yeah, I know, a fuckin' legend

[Chorus]
Yeah, I been up in this game for twenty years now
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna fuckin' lay the crown down
I'm movin' up, I see you hatin', but you makin' no sound
I don't need your recognition when I started from the ground
I don't need no big mansion on a hill
I can ball if want, there ain't no stressin' 'bout the bills
What I got and what I do could give a damn on how you feel
I'm just sayin' that the real always recognize real

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I could switch it up, I always make the party jump
Yeah, I never gave a damn and I still don't give a fuck
DJ, play another song
Some TuPac or Tim McGraw
Yeah, I'm always on the road, rollin' to another show
Halftime, you'll probably catch me blowin' on some grow
Got stress all in my mind
You would too if you had mine
You're a lost cause and this line's crossed
Checkmate, clear the board off
I'm an underlyin' deadly weapon
So come direct when it come to steppin'
You play roulette? Are you scared to die?
You hear them whispers nearby?
I know I have and I can't lie
My tears would kill if I cried
Try to live it up, never turnin' back
Fuck playin' with knives, I'ma bring an axe
They all listen when I speak the facts
You a two and a three, I'm a pair of Jacks
I'm the one they call when it's time to bat
I'm a big ol' lion, you a kitty cat
Can't pack a punch when you only jab
Gotta learn how to spit before you rap

[Chorus]
I been up in this game for twenty years now
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna fuckin' lay the crown down
I'm movin' up, I see you hatin', but you makin' no sound
I don't need your recognition when I started from the ground
I don't need no big mansion on a hill
I can ball if want, there ain't no stressin' 'bout the bills
What I got and what I do could give a damn on how you feel
I'm just sayin' that the real always recognize real
